Asexual
Pro:
1. inexpensive to make offspring (usually make a lot at a time and not invest a lot of time in raising them).
2. Do not need a mate to reproduce.
3. Can rapidly expand a population
Con:
1. genetically identical- prone to extinction because once a parasite has evolved to attack a specific genotype, it can kill them all.
2. Lineages usually don't last longer than a couple thousand years
Sexual:
Pros:
1. Genetically unique- so more likely to create a "successful" offspring
2. Lineages more likely to last hundreds of thousands of years
Cons:
1. More effort into creating offspring- require more parental effort
2. STD's- easily to pass
3. need to find a mate or else won't be successful as an organism.
Hope this helps you.
Answer:
0.175mol
Explanation:
Mole of a substance can be calculated using the formula as follows:
number of moles (n) = mass (m) ÷ molar mass (MM)
According to this question, there are 4.2g of Magnesium (Mg).
Molar mass of Magnesium = 24g/mol, hence, the number of moles of 4.2g of Mg is as follows:
n = 4.2g ÷ 24g/mol
n = 0.175mol
Answer:
0.260 Celsius
Explanation:
q =c x m x (T2-T1)
c - specific heat of water 4.186 J/g.C
T2-T1 = q /(c x m) = 0.959 /(4.186 x 0.88) = 0.959/3.68 =0.260 C
Sedimentary rocks are classified on the basis of the texture (grain size) of the rock, and composition.
Answer:
CaCN₂
Explanation:
A compound of calcium, carbon and nitrogen CaₐCₓNₙ in oxygen will burning producing:
CaₐCₓNₙ + O₂ → aCaO + xCO₂ + nNO₂
Moles of the oxides CaO, CO₂, NO₂ are:
CaO: 3.106g ₓ (1 mole / 56.08g) = <em>0.0554 moles of CaO = moles of Ca</em>
CO₂: 2.439g ₓ (1mole / 44g) = <em>0.0554 moles CO₂ = moles C</em>
NO₂: 5.097g ₓ (1mole / 46g) = <em>0.111 moles NO₂ = moles N</em>
Empirical formula is the chemical formula that represents the simplest ratio of elements in a compound.
Having as basis 0.0554 moles (The lower number of moles):
0.0554 moles Ca / 0.0554 = 1 Ca
0.0554 moles C / 0.0554 = 1 C
0.111 moles N / 0.0554 = 2N
Thus, the compound CaₐCₓNₙ has as empirical formula:
Ca₁C₁N₂ = <em>CaCN₂</em>
