6 0

I. Each carbon atom can form single bonds with up to four other carbon atoms. II. Each carbon atom can form double bonds with up to two other carbon atoms. III. Carbon atoms can join together to form chains or rings. IV. A single molecule of some compounds can contain thousands of carbon atoms.

Answer:

All the given choices

Explanation:

Carbon is a very interesting element which is the backbone of most organic compounds.

Organic compounds are made up of carbon. Carbon forms a wide range of compound due to the following properties;

  • An atom of carbon has 4 valence electrons and can bond with 4 other carbon.
  • Carbon can form single, double and triple covalent bonds.
  • They can join together to form rings or chains.

One of the traits that we looked at in class was a widow's peak (has peak is dominant, no peak is recessive). For each individua
Marina CMI [18]

Answer:

Explanation: 1) Individual who is bald but neither parents has a widow's peak: As having a peak is dominant and the individual is bald with parents that doesn't have the trait, the genotype is recessive, in the case ww;

2) Individual has a widow's peak: The individual's genotype can be WW, homozygous for the trait or Ww, heterozygous for the trait, depending on the genotype of the parents;

3) Individual can't roll their tongue: Being able to roll the tongue is a dominant characteristics, so if the individual can't roll their tongue means the genotype is recessive. But, there is little evidence that this trait is dominant or inheritable;

4) Individual has a widow's peak  but their mother does not: In this case, the genotype of the individual is heterozygous (Ww), because the mother is recessive (ww) and the offspring has the trait, so the father must have had it;

5) If an individual does not have a widow's peak (ww), which genotype would be impossible? If this individual crosses over with another individual with the same trait, their children will be all recessive for widow's peak (ww), so there is no possibility of an offspring with the trait;

If the initial individual crosses over with an individual with widow's peak, two possiblities can occur:

  • If the crossover is with an individual homozygous for the trait (WW): all their children will have widow's peak with genotype Ww. So, the possibility of not having the peak is 0;
  • If the crossover is with an individual heterozygous for the trait (Ww), there will be a probability of 25% for the children to have genotype WW, a probability of 50% for the offspring to be heterozygous (Ww) and has the trait and probability of 25% to be recessive (ww) and therefore doesn't have the trait;

What would happen to the fruit fly population in the locker if the apple were removed from that ecosystem?
Marina86 [1]
The fruit flys population would be less since the apples isn’t there anymore. The reasoning behind that is because it’s a fruit fly they like being around fruit.
