Answer:

1. (See explanation)

2. 46. 23 from the mother’s egg and 23 from the father’s sperm.

Explanation:

ok for number one I am not entirely sure, but I am pretty sure that light, chemicals and temperature can all affect which genes get turned on and off. I am not entirely sure if the question is asking about the environment influencing inherited traits in the form of natural selection tho? If that is something you’re seeing right now, it might be a possible answer. But honestly I am not completely sure.

Describe how the Sun and Earth formed.

melamori03 [73]

Answer:

When the solar system settled into its current layout about 4.5 billion years ago, Earth formed when gravity pulled swirling gas and dust in to become the third planet from the Sun. Like its fellow terrestrial planets, Earth has a central core, a rocky mantle and a solid crust.

Which example is a homogenous mixture of two or more pure substances? alcohol

il63 [147K]

Answer:

Alcohol and water.

Explanation:

Alcohol and water is a homogenous mixture. because these two liquids are soluble, miscible in all composition. A homogenous mixture is a solution that has equal composition of its components.

Irregular mixing of two liquid components have different refractive indexes. At a high temperature, it can become inhomogenous spontaneously.

A solution is a type of homogenous mixture which composed of two or more substances. In a mixture a solute is a substance, dissolves in other substance that is solvents like alcohol and water, alcohol is solute and water is a solvent.

The powder could be acetaminophen, analgesic having chemical formula $C_{17}H_{21}NO_{4}$

<h3>What is an empirical formula?</h3>

A chemical formula showing the simplest ratio of elements in a compound rather than the total number of atoms in the molecule.

We are given:

Percentage of C = 67.31 %

Percentage of H = 6.978 %

Percentage of N = 4.617 %

Percentage of O = 21.10 %

Let the mass of the compound be 100 g. So, the percentages given are taken as mass.

Mass of C = 67.31 g

Mass of H = 6.978 g

Mass of N = 4.617 g

Mass of O = 21.10 g

To formulate the empirical formula, we need to follow some steps:

Step 1: Converting the given masses into moles.

Moles of carbon = $\frac{mass}{molar \;mass}$

Moles of carbon = $\frac{67.31g}{12g/mole}$

=5.60 moles

Moles of hydrogen = $\frac{mass}{molar \;mass}$

Moles of hydrogen = $\frac{6.978 g}{1 g/mole}$

=6.978 moles

Moles of nitrogen = $\frac{mass}{molar \;mass}$

Moles of nitrogen = $\frac{4.617 g}{14 g/mole}$

=0.329 moles

Moles of oxygen = $\frac{mass}{molar \;mass}$

Moles of oxygen = $\frac{21.10 g}{16 g/mole}$

=1.31 moles

Step 2: Calculating the mole ratio of the given elements.

For the mole ratio, we divide each value of the moles by the smallest number of moles calculated which is 0.329 moles.

We get the ratio of C : H : N : O = 17 : 21 : 1 : 4

The empirical formula for the given compound is $C_{17}H_{21}NO_{4}$ .

Which of these energy resources are renewable? Select all that apply.

xz_007 [3.2K]

The correct options are option B and D, that is, wind power and geothermal energy.

The form of energy which is gathered from renewable resources is known as renewable energy. This form of energy gets restocked on a human timescale like wind, sunlight, tides, waves, rain, and geothermal heat.

Renewable energy usually provides energy in four essential fields, that is, air and water heating/cooling, electricity generation, rural energy services, and transportation.
