Answer:

The correct answer is A defective gene is replaced with a normal gene.

Explanation:

Gene therapy is an alternative therapy for the treatment of some diseases.

Although this therapy is still in development, and carries many risks, it is expected to have very good results in the coming years.

In such therapy the following happens:

a defective gene is replaced with a normal gene.
the introduced gene matches the defective one or produces a beneficial protein.
faulty genes are disabled.

Given this information we can say that the correct answer is A defective gene is replaced with a normal gene

1s22s22p63s23p3<br> what element does this represent

s344n2d4d5 [400]

Answer:

Its phosphorus (P)

Explanation:

In writing the electron configuration for Phosphorus the first two electrons will go in the 1s orbital. Since 1s can only hold two electrons the next 2 electrons for Phosphorous go in the 2s orbital. The next six electrons will go in the 2p orbital. The p orbital can hold up to six electrons. We'll put six in the 2p orbital and then put the next two electrons in the 3s. Since the 3s if now full we'll move to the 3p where we'll place the remaining three electrons. Therefore the Phosphorus electron configuration will be 1s22s22p63s23p3.

When solving an equation using Gay-Lussac's law, which of the following steps do not apply? A. List your knowns and unknowns. B.

suter [353]

Answer:

C. Plug the unknowns into the ideal gas law formula.

Explanation:

Gay-Lussac's law states that:

"For a constant mass of an ideal gas kept at constant volume, the pressure of the gas is directly proportional to its absolute temperature"

Mathematically, it can be written as:

$\frac{p_1}{T_1}=\frac{p_2}{T_2}$

where

p1 is the initial pressure

T1 is the initial temperature (in Kelvin)

p2 is the final pressure

T2 is the final temperature (in Kelvin)

Therefore, in order to solve for one of the 4 variables, the following steps must be adopted:

A. List your knowns and unknowns.

B. Convert temperature to kelvin.

D. Solve for the unknown.

While the following step is not needed:

C. Plug the unknowns into the ideal gas law formula.

Because we do not need to use the ideal gas law formula.
