Answer:La diferencia entre el carbono-12 y carbono-14 es el número de neutrones en cada átomo. El número dado después de que el nombre de átomo (carbono) indica el número de protones y neutrones en un átomo o ion. Los átomos de ambos isótopos de carbono contienen 6 protones. Los átomos de carbono-12 tienen 6 neutrones , mientras que los átomos de carbono-14 contienen 8 neutrones.

Explanation:Un  átomo neutro tendría el mismo número de protones y electrones, por lo que un átomo neutro de carbono-12 o carbono-14 tendría 6 electrones.

A pesar de que los neutrones no llevan una carga eléctrica, que tienen una masa comparable a la de los protones, por lo que los diferentes isótopos tienen diferente peso atómico. Carbon-12 es más ligero que el carbono-14.

Sickle-cell anemia is an example of codominance. What implications does this have for people with one or two copies of the sickl
pogonyaev

Answer: B - People with two copies of the mutated gene have sickle-cell anemia. People with one copy of the mutated gene have both healthy and misshapen red blood cells and are carriers of the disease.

Explanation:

Co-dominance is when both the alleles of a gene in a heterozygote show. In the case of sickle cell anemia (since it is a co-dominant trait) even if the person only has one sickle cell allele, symptoms of sickle cell will still show up in that person. That's why the person in this example has both misshapen and healthy red blood cells.

Savatey [412]

Answer:

It is important to do this to test your theory multiple times, so that you can see what effect the drop has on it when doing this multiple times. The numbers were slightly different because the recordings will not always be the same.
