Answer:
A buffer is simply a mixture of a weak acid and its conjugate base or a weak base and its conjugate acid. Buffers work by reacting with any added acid or base to control the pH.
Explanation:
Answer:
A. diploid and C. somatic
Explanation:
Humans are diploid organisms and have 23 pair of chromosomes i.e. in total humans have 46 chromosomes.
There are 2 types of cells in humans (1) somatic cells and (2) germ cells.
Somatic cells are normal body cells which are diploid and have all 23 pairs of chromosomes. But, germ cells are special type of cells which are produced by gonads (sex organs). Germ cells are also known as gametes. In females, ovary is the sex organ which produces germ cells named as egg cells while in males testes is the sex organ which produces germ cells named as sperms. Germ cells (egg and sperm) are haploid cells which fuse to form a zygote which is the first cell of next generation. The process of fusion of egg and sperm is known as fertilization which is responsible for restoring diploidy in the progeny which receives half the genetic material from female parent and half the genetic material from male parent.
Answer:
I) Sexual reproduction
II) Mutation
Explanation:
Variations refer to the difference observed within organisms of the same species. Variation are introduced into a population by:
- new genetic combinations that occur during sexual reproduction (i.e during meiosis)
- mutations, spontaneous changes that occur in genes and chromosomes.
If an anthropod does not change it's form except for increasing its size, this change would be considered an incomplete metamorphosis.
Gregor Mendel conducted hybridization experiments on around 29,000 pea plants. Peas were an ideal choice for Mendel to use because they had easily observable traits there were 7 of which he could manipulate.
