Answer:

\boxed {\boxed {\sf 121.905 \ J  }}

Explanation:

We are asked to find the energy given mass, specific heat, and change in temperature. Therefore, we must use this formula;

q= mc \Delta T

The mass is 15 grams and the specific heat is 0.129 J/(g×°C). Let's calculate the change in temperature.

  • ΔT= final temperature - initial temperature
  • ΔT= 85 °C- 22°C = 63°C

Now we know all the values:

m= 15 \ g \ \\c= 0.129 \ J / (g* \textdegree C) \\\Delta T= 63 \ \textdegree C

Substitue the values into the formula.

q= (15 \ g)( 0.129 \ J / (g* \textdegree C)) ( 63 \ \textdegree C)

Multiply the first numbers together. The grams will cancel.

q= (1.935 \ J/ \textdegree C) ( 63 \ \textdegree C)

Multiply again, this time the degrees Celsius cancels.

q= 121.905 \ J

<u>121.905 Joules</u> are required.

deff fn [24]

Answer:

C) The frequency of allele T would decrease and the frequency of allele t would increase.

Explanation:

If the hunter is going after monkeys with tufted tails (TT), the tufted tail monkeys would die out from the new predator, letting the non-tufted tails (tt) increase in population.

Overfishing of salmon has caused populations of wild salmon to decline. To combat this decline, salmon are raised in hatcheries,
Maslowich

Option A, The pressures of a hatchery environment and of the wild environment select for different traits.


The various pressures in wild environment include the competition for food and survival, threat of prey etc. The effect of domestication on salmon can also be a reason for its low productivity in wild environment. Some other factors that might have affected the regular productivity of salmon in wild environment include- captive rearing, inbreeding among close relatives and ability of some fish to adapt to the unique hatchery environment.

How does temperature affect the amount of carbon dioxide that yeast cells produce
raketka [301]

Yeasts will grow over a temperature range of 10°-37°C (50°-98.6°F), with an optimal temperature range of 30°-37°C (86°-98.6°F), depending on the type of species. There is little activity in the range of 0°-10°C. Above 37°C yeast cells become stressed and will not divide properly. Most yeast cells die above 50°C (122°F).

In detail what are the main differences in the 3 domains
DedPeter [7]

Answer:

Organisms can be classified into one of three domains based on differences in the sequences of nucleotides in the cell's ribosomal RNAs (rRNA), the cell's membrane lipid structure, and its sensitivity to antibiotics. The three domains are the Archaea, the Bacteria, and the Eukarya.
