Answer:

Colorful gasses;

When light passes through gas in the atmosphere some of the light at particular wavelengths is scattered resulting in darker bands. These lines came to be known as 'spectral lines' and were cataloged by heating common elements until they produced light and measuring the wavelengths emitted.

Answer:

Each of the different colors has its own wavelength, which reflects and refracts at its own angle, different from all the other colors. When light passes through a prism (a triangular piece of glass), it is reflected and refracted into a continuous band of colors called a spectrum.

Two black guinea pigs of the same genotype were mated and produced 29 black and 9 white offspring. what would you predict the ge
Archy [21]
Hey there!

It can be assumed that the two black guinea pigs have one dominant gene, black fur, and one recessive gene, white fur. Using BB, Bb, and bb, when you look at this on a Punnett square, one out of the four boxes will be BB, which will end up with black fur, two boxes will be Bb, which will also end up with black fur, and one box will be bb, which will end up with white fur. If the parent guinea pigs were BB, all of the offspring would be black. If they were bb, they would be white instead of black. 

Hope this helped you out! :-)
