The convention many people use, and some here object to, is that you are 1/2 of what each parent was. Using that, and numbering the great grandparents instead of typing "great" lots and lots of time, we get 3rd GGP 1/1 2nd GGP 1/2 1st GGP 1/4 Grandparent 1/8 Parent 1/16 You 1/32 
You could be more if some of your other ancestors were Irish. The other part of the convention is that you add the common heritages, so if you find out 2 other 3rd GGPs were also full-blooded Irish, you'd be 3/32nds. You could be less if your 3rd GGP was really half Scot and half Irish, but lied about it so no one would know he was partly Protestant.

Answer:

Hello!

*I'll include the names here and the definitions and properties in the explanation since they are descriptive.

Three States of Matter:

  1. Solid
  2. Liquid
  3. Gas

Explanation:

Matter:

Anything that has mass and occupies space (volume) is called matter. Basically, matter (and energy) constitute all the phenomena in the universe.

Composition of Matter:

1. Atom:

An atom is the smallest component into which matter can be divided. It contains charged particles such as electrons, protons and neutrons. It is the basic building block of all substances.

2. Element:

An element is a chemical substance that cannot be broken down into its constituents by simple chemical processes. For example, copper (Cu)

3. Compound:

A chemical substance formed by the combination or bonding of two or more atoms or elements. For example, NaCl is a compound that contains the elements sodium and chlorine linked together by chemical bonds.

4. Physical Properties of Matter:

Properties that are physically observable and quantifiable. All properties that can be studied without changing the chemical constitution of matter. Following are some examples of physical properties:

  • Melting point
  • Boiling point
  • Lustre
  • Shape
  • Conductivity
  • Mass
  • Volume
  • Density
  • Length

5. Chemical Properties of Matter:

Properties that demonstrate a substance's ability to form chemical bonds (undergo chemical reactions) with other substances. Chemical properties are only observable or measurable if the state or chemical composition of the substance is changed. Some examples are:

  • Chemical stability
  • Flammability
  • Reactivity (with acids, oxygen, bases, etc.)
  • Oxidation/Reduction
  • Radioactivity

Which best illustrates how Gregor Mendel used creativity that lead to scientific discovery?O He noticed that traits were passed
Svet_ta [14]
<span>As I know Gregor Mendel - Austrian naturalist, botanist and a religious leader, a monk, founder of the doctrine of heredity (Mendelism). By applying statistical methods for the analysis of results of the hybridization of pea varieties, formulated the laws of heredity. In 1856, Mendel began his experiments in crossing different varieties of peas, differing in a single, strictly defined criteria (for example, the shape and color of seeds). Precise quantitative account of all types of hybrids and statistical processing of the results of experiments that he conducted for 10 years, allowed him to formulate the basic laws of heredity - the splitting and combining of hereditary "factors". Mendel showed that these factors are separated and not crossing merge and disappear. Although the crossing of two organisms with contrasting features (for example, yellow or green seeds) in the next generation of hybrids appears only one of them.</span>
