if you knew the number of protons in a given atom, how would that enable you to figure out the number of electrons in the atom?
Brrunno [24]
The number of protons and electrons are the same. The atomic number determines, the amount of electrons and protons in an atom.

In a certain plant, fruit color is affected by an epistatic interaction between two genes. The fruit is red in the presence of a
sukhopar [10]

Answer:

15/16 or 93.75%

Explanation:

<em>The proportion of the offspring of the cross expected to be red would be 15/16 or an equivalence of 93.75%.</em>

Red fruit color is conditioned by the presence of A_, B_ or A_B_ alleles. In the absence of both dominant alleles, the condition is white. AaBb was crossed with AaBb.

AaBb   x   AaBb

Progeny' Genotype       Phenotype

1 AABB                               red

2 AABb                               red

2 AaBB                                red

4 AaBb                                 red

1 AAbb                                 red

2 Aabb                                  red

1 aaBB                                  red

2 aaBb                                  red

1 aabb                                   white

Hence, the proportion of the offspring that are expected to be red is 15/16 or 93.75%.

Longitudinal waves
Evgesh-ka [11]

Answer:

Longitudinal waves  have particle movement parallel to the direction of the energy.

Explanation:

A type of wave in which the particles in the medium move parallel to the direction of the propagation of the wave is known as a longitudinal wave. A sound wave traveling through air is an example of a longitudinal wave. Here, the particles vibrate back and forth in a direction parallel to the energy transport.

A type of wave in which the medium's particle movement is perpendicular to the direction of the propagation of the wave (or the direction of the energy transport) is known as a transverse wave. Transverse waves and longitudinal waves can travel through a solid medium. Longitudinal waves can travel through fluid mediums (liquid or gas) like air or water while transverse waves require a relatively rigid medium to transmit their energy.

Earthquakes generate both transverse and longitudinal waves that travel through the earth's solid structures. Only longitudinal waves can travel through the earth's core. An electromagnetic wave is produced by the vibration of charged particles and can transmit its energy through a vacuum. An example is light waves.
