Answer:

Explanation:

Mutations may or may not affect the phenotype because they can occur in coding or non coding areas of the DNA. If they occur in coding areas of the DNA, the protein that is coded in that part could be processed incompletely or have a different amino-acid in some part of its structure, this would affect the phenotype. If they occur in non coding areas, this would have no effect on the phenotype.

Answer:

The correct answer is option D, Unconfined aquifers are found between two layers of impermeable soil or rock.

Explanation:

An unconfined aquifer is not confined by rock layer on both of its side. Usually the ground water level (GWL) is considered as the upper layer of unconfined aquifer. Also the rocky layer found on the other side of the unconfined aquifer is not impermeable as the major source of recharge of unconfined aquifer is the seepage of water through is permeable layer or through rain.

Answer:

$\boxed{\sf A. \ 51 \ mL}$

Explanation:

Amount of water displaced by the sphere will be equal to the volume of complete sphere.

As the sphere completely sinks to the bottom of the cup.

We have been given;

Diameter of sphere (d) = 4.6 cm

So,

$\sf Radius \: of \: sphere \: (r) = \frac{Diameter \: of \: sphere \: (d)}{2} \\ \sf = \frac{4.6}{2} \\ \sf = 2.3 \: cm$

Volume of sphere (V):

$\boxed{ \bold{V = \frac{4}{3} \pi {r}^{3} }}$

By substituting value of r we get:

$\sf \implies V = \frac{4}{3} \times \pi \times {(2.3)}^{3} \\ \\ \sf \implies V = \frac{4}{3} \times 3.14 \times 12.167 \\ \\ \sf \implies V = \frac{152.81752}{3} \\ \\ \sf \implies V = 50.94 \: {cm}^{3} \\ \\ \sf \implies V \approx 51 \: {cm}^{ 3}$

1 cm³ = 1 mL

$\therefore$

V = 51 mL

So,

Water displaced by the sphere = 51 mL
