Destruction of or damage to structures and personnel by the force of an explosion
Answer:
Cations are ions that are positively charged. They form when they lose an electron because they would have more protons than electrons. In your problem you have for example potassium (number three).
Iodine is a cation because it lost one electron. The ion symbol then would be:
I ⁺
So this is your clue. If it has a positive or a plus sign on top, that would make it a cation. Another clue would be if it LOST an electron, then it is a cation.
An anion, on the other hand, is negatively charged, because they gain electrons, making the electrons more than the protons. In your problem, you have Iodine as an example (number one).
Iodine gained one electron and the ion symbol would be:
I⁻
So again that is your clue for anions, they have a negative or a minus sign on top of the symbol. If they GAINED an electron, that would make them an anion.
Naming monoatomic anions is easy. They are named with the suffix -ide at the end. (Cations retain their name). For example Sulfur (number two).
Sulfur is an anion that gained two electrons with an ion symbol of:
S²⁻
So from the name <u>Sulfur</u><u> </u>the name will change into "Sulfide" and its name will now be <u>Sulfide ion. </u>
A pea plant with genotype PP (purple flowers) mates with a plant with the genotype pp (white flowers). The dominant allele P codes for purple flowers. The possibility that the offspring will have purple flowers is <u>100%</u>. If an offspring from this cross mates with a pp, the possibility of homozygous dominant genotype for the flowers will be <u>50%</u>.
<em>The dominant allele for the flower is P, and the recessive allele for the flower is p. </em>
<em>The possible genotypes of the purple flower is; PP or Pp.</em>
<em>The possible genotype of the white flower is; pp.</em>
The answer is; in the summer
Insects such as blowflies increase their population in the summers when the temperatures are warm. One reason is that most insects are ectotherms hence their body temperatures are dependent on ambient environmental temperatures. In addition, the maggot stage of the blowfly pupates mostly in warm and dry conditions hence increasing winged flies populations in the summer.
Answer:
D. GGACCGTCGATCCTT
Explanation:
Mutation refers to any change in the nucleotide sequence of a gene. Mutation can be of different types depending on how it occurs. According to the question, an INVERSION mutation is a type of mutation in which a segment of a gene gets broken off and reattached in another way on the same DNA. Hence, the only change in inversion mutation is the arrangement of the nucleotide bases on the gene.
Considering the nucleotide sequence: GGACCGTCGATCTTC, the sequence that describes an occurrence of inversion mutation is: GGACCGTCGATCCTT because the segment TTC in the original sequence has been rearranged as CTT in the mutated sequence.
