One species of a small birdlike animal has an extremely variable tail length, which is a highly polymorphic trait. Geneticists h

ave come to realize that there are eight separate genes for tail length per haploid genome, with each gene having two alleles. One allele for each gene (a, b, and so on) increases the length by 1 cm, whereas the other allele (a2, b2, and so on) increases it by 0.5 cm. One bird was analyzed and found to have the following genotype: a1a1b2b2c1c2d1d2e2e2f1f2g1g1h1h2. What is the length of its tail?
A) 6 cm
B) 36 cm

(Experiment 1: Diffusion through a liquid) Does the rate of diffusion correcspond with the molecular weight of the dye?
saveliy_v [14]
The answer to this question would be: False

The rate of diffusion should not be influenced by molecular weight. Big molecule might not be able to pass the membrane though.
Diffusion happens when there is a difference/gradient in the concentration of the molecules. If the difference is higher, then the diffusion rate will be increased.

What should you do if you need to leave the laboratory temporarily in the middle of your work?
kondor19780726 [428]

While leaving the laboratory temporarily in the middle of your work remove your lab coat and gloves.

<h3>Laboratory safety:</h3>

Washing your hands is the final thing you should do before leaving the lab after an experiment. Since most chemicals are somewhat harmful, wash your hands before you leave. After taking the necessary measures, inform the teacher.

With its risky processes, hazardous chemicals, and fire threats, the science laboratory is inherently unsafe. Avoid coming into contact with chemicals directly. Never taste, smell, or inhale lab chemicals. After taking off your gloves and before leaving the work area, wash your hands and arms thoroughly with soap and water. In a laboratory, never consume food or liquids, chew gum or tobacco, light up, or use cosmetics. These fundamental safety offer guidance on conduct, cleanliness, and safety to prevent laboratory mishaps.

Why is eyesight not an important adaptation to life in a cave
vredina [299]
Think about it. Caves are dark, with little to no light. If there's no light, why would you need to see? There are far more important senses than sight in cases like these. Senses such as smell, hearing, and touch. Hope that helped.
