Answer:
C. Mutations are a change in DNA or a chromosome and can be helpful, harmful or may have no affect.
Explanation:
- Mutations are spontaneous random changes that occurs in the genetic make up of an organisms. Mutations are rare and their rate of occurrence is random.
- Mutations may occur on the gene level known as gene mutations or at chromosome levels called chromosomal mutations.
- Mutations may be beneficial, harmful or have no effect on a given organisms. Harmful mutations cause disorders that may lead to abnormality or death of an organisms. Beneficial mutations improve an organisms adaptability to the environment.
Properties of a solution that depend only on the ratio of the number of particles of solute and solvent in the solution are known as colligative properties. For this problem, we use boiling point elevation concept.
ΔT(boiling point) = (Kb)mi
ΔT(boiling point) = (0.51 C-kg / mol )(4.0 mol / 2.05 kg ) (2)
ΔT(boiling point) = 1.99 C
T(boiling point) = 101.99 C
Answer:
a: chemical change because the change cannot be reversed.
b: physical change because the action can be reversed.
c: chemical change.
d:chemical change.
any change that cannot be reversed is a chemical change and any change that can be reversed is a physical change.
An atom is the smallest unit of ordinary matter that forms a chemical element.
oxygen, carbon, hydrogen, nitrogen, calcium, and phosphorus.
