These two finches share a common ancestor from South America. What is the most likely way that one ancestral finch species will

develop into two distinct species?
A The ancestral species was genetically engineered to become two new species

B Groups of the ancestral species became isolated and adapted to different environments.

C. Two individual birds acquired many spontaneous mutations.
D. The ancestral species mated with other species and the offspring resulted in two new species.

Answer:

The correct answer is - B. Groups of the ancestral species became isolated and adapted to different environments.

Explanation:

Two finches Warbler Finch and Woodpecker Finch are two distinct finches are finches from the Galapagos Islands. Both of these finches have a common ancestor from South America.

The most likely explanation of developing two distinct species from an ancestral finch is by bein isolated and developed or adapted according to the challenges and environmental conditions and ultimately become different species after several generations.

The temperature of 335 g of water changed from 24.5oC to 26.4oC. How much heat did this sample absorb? C for water = 4.18 J/goC
Sergio039 [100]

Answer: The sample absorbed 3061.565J

Explanation:

Given that  

Mass of water  = 335g

Initial temperature  = 24.5°C

Final temperature = 26.4°C

Heat  absorbed by the sample is given as  = mass x specific heat of water x  temperature change

Heat  absorbed,q=mCΔt

The specific heat of water,C  = 4.81J/g°C

 

Therefore,  Heat absorbed,q  = 335 x 4.81h x (26.4  - 24.5)  = 3061.565J

The Ostwald process is used commercially to produce nitric acid, which is, in turn, used in many modern chemical processes. In t
const2013 [10]

Answer:

\boxed{\text{47.4 g}}

Explanation:

We are given the mass of two reactants, so this is a limiting reactant problem.

We know that we will need mases, moles, and molar masses, so, let's assemble all the data in one place, with molar masses above the formulas and masses below them.

M_r:    17.03   32.00                 18.02  

           4NH₃ + 5O₂ ⟶ 4NO + 6H₂O

m/g:     70.1      70.1

Step 1. Calculate the moles of each reactant

\text{Moles of CO } = \text{70.1 g} \times \dfrac{\text{1 mol}}{\text{17.03 g}} = \text{4.116 mol}\\\\\text{Moles of H$_{2}$O} = \text{70.1 g} \times \dfrac{\text{1 mol}}{\text{32.00 g}} = \text{2.191 mol}

Step 2. Identify the limiting reactant  

Calculate the moles of H₂O we can obtain from each reactant.

From NH₃:

The molar ratio of H₂O:NH₃ is 6:4.

\text{Moles of H$_{2}$O} = \text{4.116 mol NH$_{3}$} \times \dfrac{\text{6 mol H$_{2}$O}}{\text{4 mol NH$_{3}$}} = \text{6.174 mol H$_{2}$O}

From O₂:  

The molar ratio of H₂O:O₂ is 6:5.  

\text{Moles of H$_{2}$O} = \text{2.191 mol O$_{2}$} \times \dfrac{\text{6 mol H$_{2}$O}}{\text{5 mol O$_{2}$}} = \text{2.629 mol H$_{2}$O}

O₂ is the limiting reactant because it gives the smaller amount of H₂O.  

Step 3. Calculate the theoretical yield.

\text{Theor. yield } = \text{2.629 mol H$_{2}$O}\times \dfrac{\text{18.02 g H$_{2}$O}}{\text{1 mol H$_{2}$O}} = \textbf{47.4 g H$_{2}$O}\\\\\text{The maximum yield of H$_{2}$O is }\boxed{\textbf{47.4 g}}

The R group or side chain of the amino acid leucine is non-polar. The R group of serine is polar. Where would you expect to find
Pani-rosa [81]

Answer:

Serine will be on the exterior of the globular protein while leucine on the interior of the globular proteins

Explanation:

The nature or solubility of the side cham determines the poition of amino acid on the globular protein and it is either hydrophilic or hydrophobic.

Serine is an hydrophilic amino acid and so it is position on the surface of the globular protein (Exterior)

While Leucine side chain is hydrophobic in nature is positioned on the interior of the globular protein.

Draw and label the parts of a helium atom. Include the mass and charge of each subatomic particle.
mihalych1998 [28]

Explanation:

Helium is the second element on the periodic table.

  Information about helium:

  • it belongs to group O on the periodic table
  • it is has an atomic number of 2
  • Helium exists naturally as gas and it is nonreactive.

  To write an atom we use this format:

                                     ₙᵇGˣ

   G is the symbol of the atom

   n is the atomic number  

   b is the mass number

    x is the charge on the atom

Using the periodic table as guide

    Symbol of helium is He

     Atomic number of helium is 2

     mass number of helium is 4

     charge on helium atom is 0

                              ⁴₂He

Every atom contains protons, neutrons and electrons;

   Electrons are negatively charged. For a neutral atom, the number of electrons is the same as that of protons.

   Protons are positively charge particles in an atom. The atomic number is the number of protons in an atom.

   neutrons do not have charges.

 

   Helium has:

        Number of protons = 2

        Number of electrons = 2

        Number of neutrons = 2

Mass of each subatomic particle:

      1 electron = 9.11 x 10⁻³¹kg

      2 electrons = 1.82 x 10⁻³⁰kg  

     Protons and neutrons have the same mass:

           1 proton = 1.67 x 10⁻²⁷kg

           2 protons = 3.34 x 10⁻²⁷kg

           2 neutrons = 3.34 x 10⁻²⁷kg
