The pH scale measures the acidity of a substance. It is a negative logarithmic scale. A pH of 3 has a hydrogen ion concentration

(which is responsible for acidity) ten times greater than a pH of 4. How many times greater is the hydrogen ion concentration of a pH 2 solution than a pH 6 solution?

Answer:

The correct answer is: a pH 2 solution has a <u>10000 times</u> greater hydrogen ion concentration than a pH 6 solution.

Explanation:

The pH scale is a measurement used to describe the acidity of a solution, and this acidity is given by the concentration of H+ (hydrogen ion) in said substance. A solution with a greater concentration of H+, is more acid than a solution with a smaller concentration of H+ and, therefore, has a lower pH. Given that the pH scale is a negative logarithmic scale, a solution with a pH of 3 has a ten times greater H+ concentration than a solution with a pH of 4.

A pH 2 solution has 10 times more H+ ion concentration than a pH 3 solution, 100 times more H+ ion concentration than a pH 4 solution, 1000 times more H+ ion concentration than a pH 5 solution, and 10000 times more H+ ion concentration than a pH 6 solution.

<span>Biological scientists are research scientists who examine how living organisms relate to the environment. They can specialize in any number of plant, animal or environmental studies. Biological scientists most often have earned a master's or doctoral degree in their specialization; such degrees offer the opportunity to develop research while finishing their education. Some low-level positions related to biological science are available to those holding baccalaureate degrees.</span>

Sedbober [7]

Answer:

This is an example of "Disruptive selection".

Explanation:

<em>Disruptive selection</em> occurs when <em>selective pressure</em> <em>favor homozygous</em>. In equilibrium, <em>the two alleles might be present or one of them might be lost</em>. If an environment has two extremes, then in these environments, both alleles are presented in homozygous.  

The disruptive selection causes an <em>increase</em> in the two types of <em>extreme phenotypes over the intermediate forms</em>. Limits between one extreme and the other are frequently very sharped. Individuals belonging to one phenotype can not live in the same area as individuals belonging to the other phenotype, due to the traits differences between them, competition, or predation.

Populations show two favored extreme phenotypes and a few individuals in the middle. Individuals who survive best are the ones who have traits on the <u>extremes forms</u>.  Individuals in <u>the middle</u> are not successful at survival or reproduction.

<em>Color</em> is very important when it comes to <em>camouflage</em>. Dark green caterpillars that live in dark foliage and light green caterpillars that live in light foliage can <em>hide from predators</em> more effectively and will live the longest. Intermediate colored green caterpillars that don't camouflage or blend into either will be eaten more quickly.
