What statement is true about linked genes? The correct answer is option The closer two genes are on a chromosome, the lower the probability that a crossover will occur between them. What are linked genes? When genes are close together on the same chromosome, they are said to be linked. That means the alleles, or […]
What is the principle of serial dilution?
What is the principle of serial dilution? Serial dilution is a common technique used in many immunologic procedures. A small amount of serum or solute can be serially diluted by transferring aliquots to diluent. One of the most common series doubles the dilution factor with each transfer (1:2, 1:4, 1:8 …). What is the advantage […]
How are metamorphic rocks classified?
How are metamorphic rocks classified? Metamorphic rocks are broadly classified as foliated or non-foliated. Non-foliated metamorphic rocks do not have aligned mineral crystals. Non-foliated rocks form when pressure is uniform, or near the surface where pressure is very low. The other minerals have been crushed and deformed into a fine-grained matrix (Mtx). What are metamorphic […]

Can the scientific method be cyclic?
Can the scientific method be cyclic? How does it work? The scientific method involves a cyclic process of observation, hypothesis and experimentation. Why is the scientific method not really linear? In contrast to the linear steps of the simplified scientific method, this process is non-linear: The process of science is iterative. Science circles back on […]
What is crust explain?
What is crust explain? “Crust” describes the outermost shell of a terrestrial planet. Earth has three layers: the crust, the mantle, and the core. The crust is made of solid rocks and minerals. Beneath the crust is the mantle, which is also mostly solid rocks and minerals, but punctuated by malleable areas of semi-solid magma. […]

What is the relation between current and intensity?
What is the relation between current and intensity? This current is the number of electrons being emitted per second. That is directly proportional to the intensity of the light. So greater intensity means more photons striking the surface and hence an increase in the emitted electrons. The frequency of the light tells is about the […]
What is ionized helium?
What is ionized helium? Singly ionized helium is an atom that has lost one of its electrons. We must expect its remaining electron to act like a hydrogen electron. There is only one difference between a hydrogen atom and a singly ionized helium atom; number of protons in the nucleus, so the nuclear charge. What […]
What were the major conflicts of the Cold War?
What were the major conflicts of the Cold War? The Korean War, Vietnam War, and a number of other armed conflicts, during which both sides either funded one side of the war or fought directly against a communist or capitalist force, are all considered Cold War proxies. Why the US was responsible for the Cold […]
