Answer:

A hydrogen bond is a weak bond formed by the electrostatic attraction that takes place between proton of one molecule and an electronegative atom of another molecule. It can be of two types intra-molecular and inter-molecular.

In water, hydrogen bonds give characteristic properties such as cohesion, high specific heat, high heat of vaporization, a lower density of ice, and solubility.

In DNA, the hydrogen bonds only provide stability to the overall molecule. The two strands of the DNA stay together or remain attached with the help of hydrogen bonds.

The nucleotide base pairs are joined together through hydrogen bonding. The adenine and thymine are joined together with the help of two hydrogen bonds. The cytosine and guanine are joined together with the help of three hydrogen bonds.

Kaylis [27]

When we are talking of dominance in genes, we have that a gene can present with certain variations, this variations are called alleles. Now acording to mendelian genetics in alleles we can have dominant alleles or recessive alleles.

When an allele is dominant it means thet every time this allele be present the trait thet code will show, it doesn't matter if the organism is homozygous (SS for example) or heterozygous (Ss for example) in both cases the person wil have smile dimples, now a recessive trait will only show itself when is in its homozygous form (ss) and in that case and only the person won't show smile dimples.

shepuryov [24]

Answer: 0.36

Explanation:

Apply the formula for acceleration:

(V2 - V1) / (T2 - T1)

(0.28 - 0.13) / (2.61 - 1.92)

= 0.25/0.7

= 0.36

Thus, the car with two washers move with an acceleration of 0.36m/s2
