Yanni made a chart to compare the strong and weak forces. Which best describes Yanni’s error? Only the weak force is active in t

he nuclei of atoms. The weak force keeps particles that make up neutrons together. The strong force overcomes repulsion and keeps protons together. The strong force is responsible for radioactive decay..

Answer: Option (d) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

Nucleus of an atom consists of protons and neutrons. Protons are positively charged and neutrons have no charge. So, due to the like charges of protons there occurs electrostatic force of repulsion inside the nucleus of the atom.

But due to similar number of neutrons and protons a force that is able to bind both of them together is known as strong nuclear binding energy.

This force is strong enough that it is able to overcome electrostatic force of repulsion. But when there is great difference in the number of protons and neutrons then binding force is not strong enough.

Hence, the atom becomes unstable and undergoes radioactive decay. So, this means weak forces are responsible for radioactive decay.

Thus, we can conclude that the statement which best describes Yanni’s error is that the strong force is responsible for radioactive decay.

15. An investigation was carried out and the results
Dovator [93]

Answer:

<em>The correct option is D. It is carbon dioxide released by respiration.</em>

Explanation:

The process by which ATP is abundantly formed in organisms is termed as cellular respiration. Cellular respiration can be described as a process in which carbon dioxide and water are produced from glucose and oxygen. ATP molecules are synthesized by this process which are used for cellular activities.

Hence, the substance X in the investigation shows carbon dioxide which was produced when the yeast cells began to respire. Yeast cells can respire either in the presence of oxygen or without oxygen.

Mendel's law of segregation predicts the following specific phenotypic ratios among the F, and Fa progeny from crosses between t
aleksandrvk [35]

Answer:

C. Fi 1:0, F2 3:1

Explanation:

Firstly, Mendel's law of segregation states that the alleles of a gene will randomly separate into gametes during gamete formation. In this case involving a single trait, hence, a single gene. Mendel crossed two purebreeding plants i.e. homozygous plants that produced different phenotypes for the same gene. He obtained his offsprings which he called F1 offsprings. He realized that all the F1 offsprings expressed only one phenotype. For example, when he crossed homozygous tall (TT) and short (tt) plants, he got F1 offsprings that were all tall.

He then self-crossed these F1 offsprings to produce a F2 offsprings that had a phenotypic ratio of 3:1 i.e. 3tall, 1short plant. He concluded that the alleles of the single gene had segregated into the gametes but one allele was capable of masking the expression of another, as seen in the heterozygous F1 offsprings that were all tall (Tt).

Hence, he obtained a 1:O ratio for his F1 offsprings then a 3:1 ratio for his F2 offsprings.

When plants are designed to contain more sets of chromosomes than normal, which of the following have humans taken advantage of?
Novosadov [1.4K]

The correct answer is polypoidy.

  • Polypoidy means the pressence of an extra set of chromosome. This factor helps in various types of advancement in the plants.
  • This polypoidy of plants results in bigger fruits and as the polypoid fruit is sterile they are seedless.
  • The fruit formed has higher yield.
  • They are resistant to diseases, high vigor and have good crop quality.
