Answer:

Fatty acids are long chain carboxylic acids, they contain the carboxyl, COOH, functional group. The general formula for a fatty acid is R-COOH where R represents a long hydrocarbon chain. If the hydrocarbon chain, R, contains only single bonds between the carbon atoms, the fatty acid is said to be saturated.

An animal traveling at 3mm/h east increased his velocity to 5 mm/h east in one hour. What was the animal’s acceleration?

Acceleration= velocity/time

velocity=5mm= 0.005m

time= 1 hour= 60 seconds

The inhabitants of the planet Mendel have three alleles for hair color: red (R), white (W) and blue (b). The R and W alleles exh
Alex_Xolod [135]

Answer:

4 RW pink hair color

Explanation:

Let the allele for red hair color = R

Let the allele for white hair color = W

Let the allele for blue hair color = b

Since R and W exhibit co dominance it means none of both traits have the tendency or capability to masked the other .

As such individual with RW genotype = PInk hair color

Allele b is recessive and only individuals with the genotype bb exhibit the blue allele  

Now; if a cross occurs between a red-haired Mendelian and a white-haired Mendelian

i.e

RR   × WW

we have

           R           R

W         RW       RW

W        RW         RW

So we have the following offspring :

4 RW = 4 pink

So theoretically , the possible phenotypes results to 4 RW pink hair color
