Answer:
Explanation:
The oxidation state, sometimes referred to as oxidation number, describes the degree of oxidation (loss of electrons) of an atom in a chemical compound. Conceptually, the oxidation state, which may be positive, negative or zero, is the hypothetical charge that an atom would have if all bonds to atoms of different elements were 100% ionic, with no covalent component. This is never exactly true for real bonds.
The term oxidation was first used by Antoine Lavoisier to signify reaction of a substance with oxygen. Much later, it was realized that the substance, upon being oxidized, loses electrons, and the meaning was extended to include other reactions in which electrons are lost, regardless of whether oxygen was involved.

Explanation:
ok for number one I am not entirely sure, but I am pretty sure that light, chemicals and temperature can all affect which genes get turned on and off. I am not entirely sure if the question is asking about the environment influencing inherited traits in the form of natural selection tho? If that is something you’re seeing right now, it might be a possible answer. But honestly I am not completely sure.
Answer:
300000Pa or 3×10^5 Pa
Explanation:
Since the problem involves only two parameters of volume and pressure, the formula for Boyle's law is suitably used.
Using Boyle's law
P1V1 = P2V2
P1 is the initial pressure = 1.5×10^5Pa
V1 is the initial volume = 0.08m3
P2 is the final pressure (required)
V2 is the final volume = 0.04 m3
From the formula, P2 = P1V1/V2
P2 = 1.5×10^5 × 0.08 ÷ 0.04
= 300000Pa or 3×10^5 Pa.
