Genetic Traits Exercise: Introduction: The pioneer of modern day genetics was an Austrian Monk named Gregor Mendel‚ who established the basic laws of heredity from his studies with pea plants in the late 1800s. Mendel’s fundamental genetic principles may be applied to a variety of traits from many different organisms. Each genetic trait‚ such as flower color‚ is regulated by a pair of genes called alleles. These alleles are found at particular places on the chromosomes called loci. During meiosis

Scuba diving is a form of underwater diving in which a diver uses a scuba set to breathe underwater. According to the Professional Association of Diving Instructor (PADI)‚ a “DEEP DIVE” is considered to be anything from 18 meters (60 ft) to 30 meters (100 ft). A scuba diver moves around underwater by using swim-fins attached to the feet‚ however external propulsion can be provided by a diver propulsion vehicle. Scuba diving may be performed for a number of reasons; either for recreational purposes

Argon (Ar) is a noble gas found in Group 0 on the periodic table. It gets its name because of its chemical inertness and comes from the Greek root ‘Argo‚’ which means lazy. This is because Argon doesn’t react well with other elements. The atomic number of Argon is 18 making it a member of the helium group of elements which are also called noble‚ or inert‚ gasses and are non reactive. Its electronic configuration is: 1s2 2s2 2p6 3s2 3p6 The outermost shell‚ shell number three‚ has a completely

Combustion of Acetylene (ethyne) Rx: Back Why I don’t do acetlyene explosions in our lab.... Combustion of alkanes A quick review.... • Combustion reactions of alkanes consist only of C and H (hydrocarbon) • require O2(g) as a reactant • produce CO2(g) and H2O(g) and a large amount of energy!! Oxygen can be the limiting reagent which can lead to Incomplete combustion. For complete combustion of a hydrocarbon‚ oxygen must be in excess. If there isn’t sufficient oxygen‚ incomplete combustion occurs
