Which term is used to describe the variety
of inheritable traits in a species?

Ecosystem diversity

Genetic diversity

Natural selection

Species diversity

Answers

Answer 1
Genetic diversity.

Genetic diversity refers to genetic variability within species. Each individual species possesses genes which are the source of its own unique features: In human beings, for example, the huge variety of people's faces reflects each person's genetic individuality.
Answer 2

So, Ecosystem Diversity is a term that describes how different habitats of organisms are. For example, the fact that our planet has deserts, tundras but also estuaries is a sign of the diversity of its ecosystems. Species diversity refers to the number of different species that inhabit a specific ecosystem or the whole biosphere; the more, the better for species diversity. Genetic diversity is the term we are looking for; it means the variation in genes (usually in one species) that leads to different inheritable traits (in members of the same species). For example eye color is an inheritable trait that showcases genetic diversity since there are many genes that determine a different color such as brown, blue, green etc. (even though the environment plays a role too). Finally, natural selection is a theory about the survival of the fittest due to competition. It relates to inheritable traits and their diversity but it does not describe them.

A hypothetical element X is found to have an atomic mass of 37.45 amu. Element X has only two isotopes, X-37 and X-38. The X-37 isotope has a fractional abundance of 0.7721 and an isotopic mass of 37.24. What is the isotopic mass of the other isotope?

Answers

Answer: The isotopic mass of the other isotope is 38.16 amu

Explanation:

Mass of isotope X-37 = 37.24

fractional abundance of isotope X-37  = 0.7721

Mass of isotope X-38 = ?

fractional abundance of isotope X-38 = (1-0.7721)= 0.2279

Formula used for average atomic mass of an element :

[tex]\text{ Average atomic mass of an element}=\sum(\text{atomic mass of an isotopes}\times {{\text { fractional abundance}})[/tex]

[tex]37.45=\sum[(37.24\times 0.7721)+(x\times 0.2279)][/tex]

[tex]x=38.16[/tex]

Therefore, the isotopic mass of the other isotope is 38.16 amu

Racecar driver Keimesha was in a race and accelerated from rest to 39 m/s by the time she reached the finish line. Keimesha’s car moved in a straight line and traveled from the starting line to the finish line in 6.0 seconds. What was the acceleration of the dragster?

Answers

Answer:

the acceleration of the racecar is 6.5 m/s²

Explanation:

Given;

initial velocity of the racecar, u = 0

final velocity of the racecar, v = 39 m/s

time of motion, t = 6.0 s

The acceleration of the racecar is calculated as;

[tex]a = \frac{v-u}{t} \\\\a = \frac{39-0}{6} \\\\a = \frac{39}{6} \\\\a = 6.5 \ m/s^2[/tex]

The formation of tert-butanol is described by the following chemical equation: Suppose a two-step mechanism is proposed for this reaction, beginning with this elementary reaction: Suppose also that the second step of the mechanism should be bimolecular. Suggest a reasonable second step. That is, write the balanced chemical equation of a bimolecular elementary reaction that would complete the proposed mechanism.

Answers

Answer:

(CH3)3C^+ + OH^-  --------> (CH3)3COH

Explanation:

This reaction has to do with SN1 reaction of alkyl halides. Here tert-butanol is formed from tert-butyl bromide.

The first step in the reaction is the formation of a carbocation. This is a unimolecular reaction. The rate of reaction depends on the concentration of the alkyl halide. This is a slow step and thus the rate determining step in the mechanism.

(CH3)3CBr -------> (CH3)3C^+ + Br^-

The second step is a fast step and it completes the reaction mechanism. It is a bimolecular reaction as follows;

(CH3)3C^+ + OH^-  --------> (CH3)3COH

Over an interval of 2.0 s the average rate of change of the concentration of C was measured to be 0.0540 M/s. What is the final concentration of A at the end of this same interval if its concentration was initially 2.000 M

Answers

Answer:

Explanation:

the average rate of change of the concentration =

( initial concentration - final concentration ) / time

Initial concentration = 2.000 M

the average rate of change of the concentration = .0540 M/s

time = 2 s

Putting the values

.0540 =  (2.000 - X ) / 2

0.108 = 2.000 - X

X = 1.892 M .

Final concentration = 1.892 M .

6. The aqueous layer turned into a _____________ colored solution.
a. organic
b. aqueous
c. yellow
d. pink

Answers

Answer:

Explanation:

The objective of this experiment is to match the expected result with each of the propositions given after the experiment had been carried out.

1. The top layer was the organic layer. This is because all the organic compounds have lesser density than water except chloroform that will be formed when NaOH is added.

2. 9-fluorenone was most soluble in the organic layer. This is so as a result of its non-polar carbon structure.

3. Deprotonated chloroanilic acid was most soluble in the aqueous layer as a result of the formation of an electrovalent bond with water.

4. The bottom layer was the aqueous layer as a result of the huge amount of water density.

5. The organic layer was a yellow colored solution.

6. The aqueous layer turned into a pink colored solution.

if a gas at 300k occupies 3.60 liters at a pressure of 1.00 atm, what will be it’s new pressure if the volume is compressed to 2.0 liters at a temperature of 450K?

Answers

Answer: The new pressure if the volume is compressed to 2.0 liters at a temperature of 450K is 2.7 atm

Explanation:

The combined gas equation is,

[tex]\frac{P_1V_1}{T_1}=\frac{P_2V_2}{T_2}[/tex]

where,

[tex]P_1[/tex] = initial pressure of gas = 1.00 atm

[tex]P_2[/tex] = final pressure of gas = ?

[tex]V_1[/tex] = initial volume of gas = 3.60 L

[tex]V_2[/tex] = final volume of gas = 2.0 L

[tex]T_1[/tex] = initial temperature of gas = [tex]300K[/tex]

[tex]T_2[/tex] = final temperature of gas = [tex]450K[/tex]

Now put all the given values in the above equation, we get:

[tex]\frac{1.00\times 3.60}{300}=\frac{P_2\times 2.0}{450}[/tex]

[tex]P_2=2.7atm[/tex]

The new pressure is 2.7 atm

A sample consisting of 65.0 g of xenon is confined in a container at 2.00 atm and 298 K and then allowed to expand adiabatically (a) reversibly to 1.00 atm, (b) against a constant pressure of 1.00 atm. Calculate the final temperature and the expansion work at each case. Use the fact that xenon is a monoatomic gas.

Answers

Answer:

[a]. - 445.45J,

[b]. - 367.92 J

Explanation:

The following parameters are given in the question above. These information are used in solving this problem.

The mass of Xenon = 65.0 g of xenon, pressure = 2.00 atm, temperature = 298 K.

The number of moles of xenon = mass/ molar mass = 65g/ 131.293= 0.495.

The cp= 3/2 R, cp =3/2R + R = 5/2 R.

j = cp/cv = 3/2.

[a]. The final temperature,T2 = (2)^-2/3 × (298)^5/3 = T2^5/3.

Final temperature,T2 = 225.84K.

Expansion work = nCv [ T₂ - T₁] = 0.495 × 3/2 × 8.314 × [ 225.84 - 298] = - 445.45J.

(b). The final temperature can be Determine as;

3/2( T2 - 298k) = - 1 (T2 /1 - 298/2).

3/2(T2 - 298) = - T2 + 149K.

3T2 - 894 = - 2T2 +298K.

T2 = 238.4 K.

Workdone= nCv (T2 - T1) = 0.495 × 3/2 × 8.314 (238.4 - 298) = - 367.92 J.

Calculate the kinetic energy of an electron ejected from a piece of sodium (Φ = 4.41x10–19 J) that is illuminated with 265 nm light.

in Joules

Answers

Answer:

Explanation:

Energy of falling radiation having wavelength of 265 nm

= h c / λ where h is plank's constant , c is velocity of light and λ is wavelength of radiation . Putting the values

Energy of light photon = 6.6 x 10⁻³⁴ x 3 x 10⁸ / 265 x 10⁻⁹

= .0747 x 10⁻¹⁷

= 7.47 x 10⁻¹⁹ J .

Work function of sodium is 4.41 x 10⁻¹⁹

Answers

Answer:

D) Vitamin C is oxidized to yield a furan ring with 3 carbonyl groups and no double bonds

Explanation:

We can tell that the compound " (5R)-5-[(1S)-1,2-dihydroxyethyl]-3,4-dihydroxy-furan-2,3,4(5H)-trione " has 3 carbonyl groups due to it having "trione" in the name (and it lacking other carbonyl group names, like amide or carboxylic acid).

As there is no "-ene" part of the name referencing a double bond, the only option left is option D).

Answers

This question is incomplete, the complete question is;

Consider an experimental setup with two compartments separated by a phospholipid bilayer membrane containing ion channels selectively permeable only to chloride ions. The left compartment (also called inside) contains 1 mM Cl- and the right compartment (also called outside) contains 100 mM Cl-. What will the electrical potential be when the system attains equilibrium? [ assume body temperature; log 100 = 2, log 10 = 1, log 1 = 0, log 0.1 = -1, log 0.01 = -2]

Options;

a) -62 mV

b) -124 mV

c) +62 mV

d) 0 mV

e) +124 mV

Answer:

the electrical potential be when the system attains equilibrium is  –124mV

Option b) –124mV is the correct answer

Explanation:

Given the data in the question;

Two compartments are divided by lipid bilayer;

In inside compartment Cl- ion concentration- 1mM and out side of the cell concentration is 100mM

now we apply the Nernst equilibrium potential equation;

Chlorine ion valency is z = –1

So

[tex]E_{eq}[/tex] = 62/z × log(ion outside/ ion inside) [for Cl‐ ions]

[tex]E_{eq}[/tex] = (62 / –1) x log(  100 / 1 )

 [tex]E_{eq}[/tex] = -62 x 2 =

[tex]E_{eq}[/tex]  = –124mV

Therefore, the electrical potential be when the system attains equilibrium is  –124mV

Option b) –124mV is the correct answer
