Answer:

 The correct answer is 500.

Explanation:

Asteroids are large rocky remains that are orbiting our solar system. Most of them are between Mars and Jupiter.

The largest recorded asteroid is called Vesta, which has 530 km in diameter. <u>The smallest asteroids are approximately 10 meters wide.</u> If you would like to have an idea of how large an asteroid can be, imagine that the total mass of all asteroids together is even less than the mass of the moon.

<u>These rock forms usually have an irregular shape and have craters.</u> As they move forward, they also fall as they spin.

We can classify them according to their <u>composition</u> into <u>three types: </u>

  • Type C asteroids: Their appearance is dark and they are formed by clay and silicate rocks.
  • Type S asteroids: Its main component is silicate and nickel-iron.
  • M-type asteroids: Its composition is metallic.

Explain the genotypes and phenotypes of skin color. summarize the relationship between the number of active genes and color of t
Kruka [31]
<span>Human skin color is a polygenic trait, which means that multiple gene loci (with different alleles) are involved in its expression. It has been shown that there more than 350 genetic loci involved in determining skin color. Because of that, there is the enormous number of possible genotypes for the skin color and as a result, the phenotypes vary from the darkest brown to the lightest hues.</span> <span> Different populations have different allele frequencies of genes for human skin color, and the combination of these allele variations brings about complex and continuous variation in skin coloration. Natural skin color can change due to exposure to sunlight (becomes darker) and that is the way it adapts to intense sunlight irradiation (protection against the UV exposure).</span>
