Answer:

Thermodynamic Temperature

Explanation:

Kelvin is the standard unit of measurement. It represents the thermodynamic temperature of any substance. The unit Kelvin is symbolized by upper case letter "K". It is the SI unit of measurement of temperature. Since Kelvin scale starts at "273.15", the thermodynamic temperature of "273.15" is equal to "0" degree Celsius.

The quantity that is measured in Kelvin is temperature.

Most of the time, especially in chemistry, they must convert Celsius into kelvin by adding 273.15 to Celsius. K = C + 273.5

Hope this helps!

mixer [17]

Answer:

(08) and (32)

Explanation:

To make osmosis happen there has to be a difference in the concentration of solutes, between the inside and the outside of the cell. To valance this difference in concentration, water has to flow towards a place that has a higher number of solutes.

The lipids in the cell's wall make this membrane semipermeable. This allows the passage of specific components only, such as water through aquaporins. Lipids and other elements are of importance in the barrier because they maintain the cell separated from the outside, allowing it to be balanced as regards the different substances that can interact with it.

In chickens, comb shape is determined by genes at two loci (R, r and P, p). A walnut comb is produced when at least one dominant

Ivenika [448]

Answer and Explanation:

Available data:

Comb shape is determined by genes at two loci (R, r and P, p).

The walnut comb genotype is R_P_.

The rose comb genotype is R_pp.

The pea comb genotype is rrP_.

The single genotype is rrpp.

a. Walnut crossed with single produces 1 walnut, 1 rose, 1 pea, and 1 single offspring:

Parental) RrPp x rrpp

Gametes) RP Rp rP rp rp rp rp rp

Punnet Square) RP Rp rP rp

rp RrPp Rrpp rrPp rrpp

rp RrPp Rrpp rrPp rrpp

F1 phenotype: 25% walnut, 25% rose, 25% pea, and 25% single.

F1 genotype: 4/16 RrPp, 1/16 Rrpp, 4/16 rrPp, 4/16 rrpp.

b. Rose crossed with pea produces 20 walnut offspring.

Parental) RRpp x rrPP

Gametes) Rp Rp Rp Rp rP rP rP rP

Punnet Square) Rp Rp Rp Rp

rP RrPp RrPp RrPp RrPp

F1 phenotype: 100% walnut.

F1 genotype: 16/16 RrPp.

c. Pea crossed with single produces 1 single offspring.

This is not possible, because the pea genotype involves at least one dominant allele P. There are two possible crosses: rrPp x rrpp, which must produce half of the progeny pea and the other half single, or rrPP x rrpp which produce a whole pea progeny with no single offspring.

Parental) rrPp x rrpp

Gametes) rP rp rP rp rp rp rp rp

Punnet Square) rP rp rP rp

rp rrPp rrpp rrPp rrpp

rp rrPp rrpp rrPp rrpp

F1 phenotype: 50% pea, and 50% single.

F1 genotype: 8/16 rrPp, 8/16 rrpp.

d. Rose crossed with pea produces 2 walnut, 1 single, and 1 pea offspring.

This is not possible, because having one of the parents with a rose phenotype involves at least one R allele, which means that there must be rose phenotype in the progeny.

Parental) Rrpp x rrPp

Gametes) Rp Rp rp rp rP rP rp rp

Punnet Square) Rp Rp rp rp

rP RrPp RrPp rrPp rrPp

rP RrPp RrPp rrPp rrPp

rp Rrpp Rrpp rrpp rrpp

rp Rrpp Rrpp rrpp rrpp

F1 phenotype: 25% walnut, 25% rose, 25% pea, and 25% single.

F1 genotype: 4/16 RrPp, 1/16 Rrpp, 4/16 rrPp, 4/16 rrpp.

e. Rose crossed with single produces 31 rose offspring.

Parental) RRpp x rrpp

Gametes) Rp Rp Rp Rp rp rp rp rp

Punnet Square) Rp Rp Rp Rp

F1 phenotype: 100% rose (31 individuals equal 100% of the progeny).

F1 genotype: 16/16 Rrpp.

f. Rose crossed with single produces 10 rose and 11 single offspring.

Parental) Rrpp x rrpp

Gametes) Rp Rp rp rp rP rP rp rp

Punnet Square) Rp Rp rp rp

F1 phenotype: 50% rose, 50% single.

F1 genotype: 8/16 Rrpp, 8/16 rrpp.
