Answer:
By measuring the speed of light in both in space and that unknown substance
Explanation:
Refractive Index (Index of Refraction) is a value calculated from the ratio of the speed of light in a vacuum to that in a second medium of greater density.
By measuring the speed of light in that medium and dividing it by speed of light 3*10^8 we can measure the refractive index of any medium

kvv77 [185]

Answer:

The correct option is C. Rare alleles tend to remain rare even when they are dominant.The distribution of a gene among individuals is determined by mating and environmental factors.

Explanation:

Most people believe that a rare allele would only be recessive. But this is not correct. A rare allele can be dominant. The frequency of an allele to occur in a population will depend on the environmental factors. The alleles which code for traits that are best suitable for living in an environment will be seen in more abundance. The frequency of an allele to occur in a population also depends on the breeding trends of the population.

When did the Devonian period start and end?
lyudmila [28]
The Devonian Period was part of the better known Paleozoic Period. Some scientist think it was 416 million years ago.  It was the time of the great fish. It gets its name from when red rocks from Devon, England were also found in North America. It is believed that during this period parts of North America, Europe, Russia and Greenland crashed together making a new land mass. Scientists believe this period ended about 354 million years ago when land plants began to take over and much of what was an ocean disappeared.
