Based on thomsons plum pudding model of the atom what did rutherford expect to happen

Biology
1 answer:
charle [14.2K]4 years ago
3 0

Rutherford reasoned that if Thomson's model was correct then the mass of the atom was spread out throughout the atom. Rutherford was forced to discard the Plum Pudding model and reasoned that the only way the alpha particles could be deflected backwards was if most of the mass in an atom was concentrated in a nucleus.

Xelga [282]

Answer: The statement is true

Explanation:

Persons with type O- blood are often referred to as the "universaldonors" based on the presence of neither type A or B antigen on the red blood cell, coupled with anti-A and anti-B antibodies. Hence, since

the type O blood lacks antigens, it does not clump when mixed with any of the other blood types in the recipient plasma

Thus, the type O blood is a universal donor

What is the predominant hypothesis for why animals only appeared in the fossil record about 3 billion years after life originate
Lunna [17]

The predominant hypothesis for why the animals needed some 3 billion years to evolve after the life first appeared on the planet is that the conditions were not right for them to appear.

The life on Earth has appeared much earlier that what we normally assume, and also it has not been evolving very quickly, but instead it has been a very slow and gradual process. The reason for that is that the living conditions on the Earth were much different than what are they now, or anytime from the Cambrian period until the present.

The surface was still pretty hot, and there was intense volcanic activity. The composition of the atmosphere was not suitable for animals to appear at all, and in fact it would have been toxic for them. The water too had chemicals in it that were not providing the right conditions for  animals to evolve. It was only after the plants started to appear and managed to make lot of changes in the water, atmosphere, and land, than the animals were able to evolve and develop.

Question 1: In Drosophila melanogaster (fruit fly) white eye color (w) and stubby body shape (s) are encoded by two mutant allel
Bingel [31]

Answer:

A female Drosophila of unknown genotype was crossed with a white-eyed male fly, of genotype (w = white eye allele is recessive, w+= red-eye allele is dominant.) Half of the male and half of the female offspring were red-eyed, and half of the male and half of the female offspring were white-eyed.If the trait is dominant, one of the parents must have the trait. Dominant traits will not skip a generation. If the trait is recessive, neither parent is required to have the trait since they can be heterozygous.The female fly had to be heterozygous, Xw+ Xw.
