Answer:

Intermolecular forces

Water is a dipole and acts like a magnet, with the oxygen end having a negative charge and the hydrogen end has a positive charge. These charged ends can attract other water molecules.

The entire electron densities of the two hydrogen atoms get attracted towards the oxygen atom. Thus a polarity develops in each O−H bond, and therefore, the water molecules are polar in nature and act like little magnets.

nirvana33 [79]
Work is said to be done when an object moves due to a force applied. Work is calculated by multiplying the force applied and the distance traveled due to the force. It is expressed as:

W = Force x distance

W = 84 J = F (7.0 m)
F = 12 N

If a gene is found only on the X chromosome and not the Y chromosome, it is said to be what?
umka21 [38]

Answer:

Sex-linked trait

Explanation:

When a gene is present on the X chromosome, but not on the Y chromosome, it is said to be X-linked. X-linked genes have different inheritance patterns than genes on non-sex chromosomes (autosomes). That's because these genes are present in different copy numbers in males and females.
