What does it mean to say B is representing the dominant gene

Chemistry

Degger [83]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

Dominant genes are always represented by a capital letter which in this case is the letter B whereas recessive genes will be represented by a lower case letter like b.

You only need one copy of a dominant gene or allele to inherit it. A dominant allele is always expressed even if only one copy is present.

But you need two copies of genes or alleles to inherit the recessive gene. There also can't be a dominant allele of the gene if you are to inherit this.

Allele - Different forms of a gene

pickupchik [31]
All you can conclude is that something must be burning with an orange flame.

Actually, the "something" that must be burning is the hydrogen that is produced when the sodium reacts with the water:

2Na + 2H₂O → 2NaOH + H₂ + heat

So much heat is produced that the hydrogen catches fire and some of the sodium evaporates into the flame.

The electrons in the sodium atoms get "excited" in the flame. When they drop back to a lower energy level, they emit energy in the form of an orange-yellow light.
