Select the correct answer. Which statement correctly explains the polarity of the water molecule? A. The hydrogen end of the mol

ecule has a partial negative charge and the oxygen end has a partial positive charge. B. The oxygen end of the molecule has a partial negative charge and the hydrogen end has a partial positive charge. C. Both ends of the molecule have a partial negative charge, which attracts the other water molecule towards itself.

Answer:

option B) The oxygen end of the molecule has a partial negative charge and the hydrogen end has a partial positive charge.

Justification:

The electronegativity of an element accounts for its relative ability to attract electrons.

Being oxygen more electronegative than hdyrogen (the electronegativity of oxygen is 3.44 while the electronegativity of the hydrogen is 2.20), the electron density will be displaced toward the oxygen, letting it with a partial negative charge and the hydrogen with a partial positive charge.

Finally, since the charge is not symmetrical distributed around a center of the molecule, the molecule ends being polar.

Legend has it that there was a less famous geneticist in the 1800s
NNADVOKAT [17]

Answer:

Few crosses

The complexity of cat genetics

Crosses not controlled by the researcher

Explanation:

The purpose of this question is to determine why  Megor Grendel is less famous than that of Gregor Mendel.

Gregor Mendel examined pea plants, which have a number of benefits for deducing genetic rules, including:

  • The researcher has total control over the crosses.
  • Because the peas have both self and cross-fertilization, it is possible to alter the crosses in the simplest way possible.
  • Pea plants may be examined for a greater series of generations than cats or other animals.
  • Because plant genetics is not overly complicated, several traits may be investigated at the same period.

As a result, the primary factors why Megor Grendel's experiments are not well-known:

  • The presence of only a few crossings: It is impossible to establish a genetic theory with such a small number of crossings on the test subject of the organism.
  • Cat genetics is too complicated therefore, the fur gene color on the X-chromosome, a characteristics mosaic inheritance. As a result, It is much too complicated to deduce an inheritance pattern.
  • Crossings that the researcher cannot fully control. Unlike plants, crosses in animals cannot be totally controlled by the researcher.

As a result, it is impossible to draw any conclusions from them.

Eric places some room-temperature strawberries into his freezer. Which of the following correctly describes what happens to the
Arisa [49]

Answer:

The heat from the strawberries transfers to the freezer and causes the strawberries to freeze.

Explanation:

When Eric-palces some room temperature strawberries into the freezer, he is changing the temeprature of the strawberries. When the strawberries are in the room tempertaure, they are absorbing certain amount of heat.

When they are placed in the freezer they are releasing the heat to the environment and this leads to condition called as phase change. Due to this phenomenon, the heat from the strawberries transfers to the freezer and causes the strawberries to freeze.
