Describe the relationship between the wavelength and frequency of electromagnetic waves

Biology
1 answer:
larisa [96]2 years ago
7 0

Answer:

Frequency is inversely proportional to wavelength.

Explanation:

frequency is the number of oscillations in a unit of time.

Wavelength is the length between one oscillation and the next oscillation.

take two springs and 4 pins. (springs should have loops or hooks at terminals to attach to pins.)

Now get two pins and pin them at a certain distance apart.

take the first spring and attach its two terminals to the pins.

Repeat the above procedure, but double (increase the distance x2) the distance between two pins.

Now you have to measure how many coils are there within 5cm of the two springs.

you'll observe that the second spring has half the coils of the first spring within 5cm.

In here no. of coils is the frequency

5cm length is time.

distance between coil is the wavelength.

What would most likely happen to plants if they did not have a waxy outer coating?
9966 [12]
They would dehydrate too rapidly and die. Plants (well, plants with true vascular systems) need to have water to dehydrate from the leaves to help draw the water up from the soil. This is transpiration, but without the waxy cuticle this would occur at an excessive rate, killing the plant.

How does polygenic inheritance differ from mendelian inheritance
Luba_88 [7]

Answer:

Mainly, the number of genes that control traits.

Explanation:

Polygenic inheritance does not follow Mendel's law of dominance. According to Mendel the dominant trait will mask the recessive trait however, this is not always the case. Polygenic inheritance states that traits are controlled by two or more genes and is also dependent on the environment.

Let's take skin color for example. A fair-skinned person will have a child with a dark-skinned person.

Mendelian inheritance would assume that the offspring would either be fair or dark only.

Polygenic inheritance would assume that the offspring would be either fair, dark, or a tone in between, depending on the environment they are in as well.

Hope you understood it.

What happens to the nitrogen in a rabbits body<br>when it dies<br><br>​
zepelin [54]

Answer:

When rabbit dies, the nitrogen in the rabbits body is released into the soil  by decomposition.

Explanation:  

When rabbit dies its body is decomposition takes place. Decomposition is process of breaking down of the dead remains of the plants, animals and insects into tiny pieces by free living bacteria, fungi and worms present in the environment .

During the decomposition process the nitrogen present in the dead rabbit body is released into the soil in the form of ammonia. The bacteria(nitrifying bacteria) present in the soil converts this ammonia into nitrates so that it can be again used by the plants. Now plants intakes this nitrates for photosynthesis process. This process of fixing nitrogen back into the atmosphere is called nitrogen cycle.

Gene flow and genetic drift both affect allele frequencies in a population. A high level of gene flow into a population genetic
DaniilM [7]

A high level of gene flow into a population increases genetic diversity in a population. A high level of gene flow out of a population decreases genetic diversity in a population. Genetic drift is the change in allele frequencies due to "sampling error" factors. Typically, genetic drift has the biggest impact on small populations.

Gene flow (or gene migration) is a mechanism of evolution (change the allele frequencies) which transfers genetic variation among populations due to migration. High level of gene flow decreases the genetic differentiation between the two populations.

Genetic drift is a mechanism of evolution that acts by chance (“sampling error”) often when a population is reduced in size by a natural disaster (bottleneck effect) or when a small group leaves the main population and forms a colony (founder effect).
