Given:
m = 12 g, the mass of the cylinder
r = 2 cm, the radius of the cylinder
h = 6 cm, the height of the cylinder.
Calculate the volume, V, of the cylinder.
V = πr²h
= π*(2 cm)²*(6 cm)
= 75.398 cm³
By definition,
density = mass/volume.
Therefore,
density = m/V
= (12 g)/(75.398 cm³)
= 0.159 g/cm³
= 0.16 g/cm³ (nearest hundredth)
Answer: 0.16 g/cm³
Human height is one of the traits that belong to traits that cannot easily be placed in discrete phenotypic classes (there is not only tall and short people, there is continuous variation of height between them). Such traits are usually controlled by more than one gene (polygenic traits).
On the other hand, a Mendelian trait is controlled by a single locus.
