Which best describes the limits of science?
vichka [17]

A. Science cannot answer philosophical questions. Philosophical questions could be described as rheoretical questions, such as "what is the purpose of life?" These questions' answers can very from person to person. Science answers questions such as "what is the boiling point of water?", or "what is the chemical structure of water? These are both questions that have the same answer, no matter who is asking them. You just have to have the ability to accurately measure and observe the things involved, or in this case, the temperature of the water when it starts to boil or whe different atoms in the water.

Let's examine the other questions.

B. science can answer only mathematical questions. As you saw in the explanation above, science can also answer other questions, as long as they have a definite answer that we can accurately measure.

C.Science can answer any questions. Again, we have already saw that science cannot answer philosophical questions, so science cannot answer any question.

D. Science can answer any difficult questions. As with the example of the chemical stucture of water, we can answer difficult questions with science. This may seem simple to you, but it would be very difficult if it was not already known!

4 The graph below shows how the activity of an enzyme changes
choli [55]

Answer:

A

Explanation:

A. The optimum pH of the enzyme is 6.6.  - this is true. The optimum pH of the enzyme is where its activity is the highest. On the graph, this is pH 6.6 (activity at 100)

B. The optimum pH of the enzyme is 5.8.  - this is false, the activity of the enzyme peaks at 6.6 (100), at 5.8 the activity is 80

C. The enzyme's activity is greater around pH 8.0 than around  pH 5.0  - This is false, the activity at pH 5 is 50, whereas at around 8 it is 20.

D . The enzyme's activity continually increases as pH increases  from 5.0 to 9.0 - this is false. The activity drops between pH 6.6 and pH 9.

What is allele frequency?
IgorLugansk [536]

Answer:

The correct answer would be - D. the distribution of alleles in a population.

Explanation:

Allele frequency in population genetics is the term used to provide the amount of the different alleles in particular loci. In other words, it is the distribution of alleles in a population.

The term allele frequency refers to the fraction of the copies of the gene of the alleles in a known population. It can be calculated by the number of allele present of interest divided by total number of alleles in a population.

Suppose a species lived in an environment that changed very little over millions of years. Which theory about how fast evolution
hjlf

Gradualism is referred to the theory about how fast evolution occurs in this type of species.

<h3>What is Gradualism?</h3>

This type of evolutionary changes occurs gradually and not in large steps or volume.

This however explains why the species had very little changes for a very long time as a result of the environment being best suited for them.
