Answer:

Differences in their boiling points

Explanation:

When crude oil is distilled and separated into categories, the categories are characterized by the differences in their boiling points.

At different boiling points, each of the fraction will separate out.

  • Crude oil is made up of different fractions of hydrocarbons.
  • As the chain length of the hydrocarbon increases, the volatility reduces and boiling point increases.
  • Components with short carbon lengths rises out from the column first and are cooled and extracted.
  • The categories are thereby, classified based on differences in their boiling points.

This is an example of; evolution

Evolution is a gradual process in which the characteristics of a species are changed in response to its environment over several generations. Evolution depends on the process of natural selection. Some of the changed characteristics (traits) may be beneficial to the organism and it can be transferred to their offspring.

LenKa [72]
<span>The person who has a small intestine that has fewer villi than normal would most likely be u</span>nderweight. The villi of the small intestines are the small structures that do the absorbing of the nutrients. Having less of these structures, less nutrients are absorbed and the person is more likely to be malnourished.

Round pea allele R is dominant to wrinkled pea allele r, while yellow pea allele Y is dominant to green pea allele y. Homozygous
allsm [11]

Answer:

RrYy (F1 generation)

Explanation:

This is a typical dihybrid cross involving two genes in the pea plant; one coding for seed colour and the other for seed shape.

According to Mendel's law of dominance, an allele is capable of masking another allele in a gene, the allele that masks or is expressed is called the DOMINANT allele while the allele being masked is called RECESSIVE allele.

Homozygosity of a gene refers to it having the same type of alleles while heterozygosity refers to having different alleles.

In this example, allele for Round (R) and Yellow (Y) pea is dominant over the allele for Wrinkled (r) and green pea respectively.

Homozygous round green pea (RRyy) crossed with Homozygous wrinkled yellow (rrYY) will give rise to a heterozygous round yellow (RrYy) F1 offsprings.
