Question: [QUESTION]What do these two changes have in common? a piece of pear turning brown salt and vinegar removing tarnish from a penny Solution: Step 1: Think about each change. A piece of a pear turning brown is a chemical change. The substances in the pear react with oxygen in the air and turn into a different type of matter. If you scrape off the brown part of the pear, the inside will still be white. The inside hasn't touched the air. So the chemical change hasn't happened to that part of the pear. Salt and vinegar removing tarnish from a penny is a chemical change. The salt and vinegar change the tarnish into a different type of matter that can be easily wiped away. This makes the penny look shiny again. Step 2: Look at each answer choice. Both are only physical changes. Both changes are chemical changes. They are not physical changes. Both are chemical changes. Both changes are chemical changes. The type of matter before and after each change is different. Both are caused by heating. Neither change is caused by heating. Both are caused by cooling. Neither change is caused by cooling.

Question: [QUESTION]What is the expected ratio of offspring with smooth fruit to offspring with bumpy fruit? Choose the most likely ratio. Solution: To determine how many boxes in the Punnett square represent offspring with smooth fruit or bumpy fruit, consider whether each phenotype is the dominant or recessive allele's version of the fruit texture trait. The question tells you that the f allele, which is for smooth fruit, is recessive to the F allele, which is for bumpy fruit. Smooth fruit is the recessive allele's version of the fruit texture trait. A cucumber plant with the recessive version of the fruit texture trait must have only recessive alleles for the fruit texture gene. So, offspring with smooth fruit must have the genotype ff. There are 0 boxes in the Punnett square with the genotype ff. Bumpy fruit is the dominant allele's version of the fruit texture trait. A cucumber plant with the dominant version of the fruit texture trait must have at least one dominant allele for the fruit texture gene. So, offspring with bumpy fruit must have the genotype FF or Ff. All 4 boxes in the Punnett square have the genotype FF or Ff. So, the expected ratio of offspring with smooth fruit to offspring with bumpy fruit is 0:4. This means that, based on the Punnett square, this cross will never produce offspring with smooth fruit. Instead, this cross is expected to always produce offspring with bumpy fruit.
