The electrons in the outermost shell of the covalent compounds are shared by nearby atoms. As there are no free electrons for conducting electricity, the covalent compounds are perfect insulators at absolute zero. As the temperature increases, some electrons move from valence band to conduction band. This gives rise to conductivity. But as the numbers of charge carriers are very low, covalent compounds are poor conductors. On the other hand metals are good conductors cause of their bonding. Metallic bonding consists of a sea of electrons rather than discreet bonds. The free electrons are able to move freely. Since electricity and heat need electrons to move, the bonding promotes conductivity.
Answer:
S strain
Explanation:
The Avery experiment demonstrated DNA is the genetic material. It expanded upon the findings made by Griffith.
They used Pneumococcus; Smooth strain which was virulent and the Rough which was not.
Cultures of heat killed smooth strain were prepared after which it was treated with DNases ,RNases and Proteinases to remove DNA, RNA, and proteins respectively. It will then be introduced to living Rough strain.
When treated with RNases only the RNA will be destroyed and transformation will take place leading to colonies of S stains being formed.
Only when treated with DNase did the colonies S strain fail to be formed.
Answer:
An organism's genotype is its specific combination of alleles for a given gene. So, for example, in the pea plants above, the possible genotypes for the flower-color gene were red-red, red-white, and white-white. The phenotype is the physical manifestation of an organism's allelic combination (genotype).
Explanation:
hope this helps sorry if it doesn't have a good rest of your night :) ❤
The Collective Set of Alleles in a Population Is Its Gene Pool. The fact that genes exist in alternate forms, called alleles, forms the basis for the study of population genetics.
(I believe this is the correct answer)
