Answer:

Please find the explanation below

Explanation:

Gregor Mendel (1822 - 1884) who is referred to as the FATHER OF GENETICS was an Austrian monk that contributed immensely to the principle of inheritance. He worked and conducted several experiments with the pea plant (Pisium sativum).

Mendel inheritance explains how traits are passed down from parents to offsprings. Mendel proposed three laws that governs inheritance namely: law of dominance, law of segregation and law of independent assortment of genes. The law of dominance states that one allele of a gene will always mask the phenotypic expression of another allele of the same gene in a heterozygous state.

The masking allele is called DOMINANT ALLELE while the allele being masked is called RECESSIVE ALLELE.

The third choice is the answer.

This is because chemical change occurs when the (for a lack of better wording) interior of the object is changed in the second one the bread is being broken down chemically by the stomach acid this is because the acid is breaking down the formation of the bread dissolving it and chainring it into something else.

In the 4th one the change that is seen is chemical because the formation of the roof is change the physical appearance may be the same (ie. The size & shape) but their are other changes in the color, texture and maybe taste ( don’t taste a rusting roof lol) these are ways in which you can figure out if a change is chemical or physical.

Physical change occurs when the size and/or shape of an object is changed.

Chemical change occurs when the texture, taste and/or color of the object is changed, but-sometimes chemical change cannot be seen.

Hope this helped :)

in the process of photosynthesis and aerobic respiration why the amount of oxygen and carbon dioxide remains the same?
fiasKO [112]

Plants capture sunlight to acquire energy needed to produce their own food. Photosynthesis uses light energy to convert water and carbon dioxide into glucose and oxygen. Cellular respiration provides usable energy for the cell in the form of ATP. Water and carbon dioxide are products of cellular respiration.

Julie has an ectomorph body type, which means she is tall and thin with long arms and legs
Nikitich [7]
True
<span>The different body types are: ectomorph, endomorph, mesomorph, or a combination of two of these types of body sizes. </span>

“People come in all shapes and sizes,” is a statement that supports size acceptance. All human beings have distinct characteristics that they have acquired from their parents. There really are different body types and it varies not only with genes but also in ethnicity. Some Westerners are born with bigger structures compared to their Asian counterparts. Africans also have a different body structure compared to Europeans.
