Why is there a delay for the tides to react to the Moon's and Sun's gravitational effect? A. Water is relatively immune to the force of gravity delaying the tidal process.
B. There is no delay because the effects of gravity is constantly acting on bodies of water.
C. Gravity is one of the slower forces in nature having to travel great distances.
D. The gravitational forces must overcome inertia and friction for the tides to take effect on water.

a. as the temperature increases, the kinetic energy of the gas molecules increases & the molecules move faster & further away from each other.

b. if you decrease the temperature of a fixed amount of gas at constant pressure, the combined gas law reduces to charles's law. in this case, volume will also decrease.

the diploid number of chromosomes is sometimes represented by the symbol 2n. for the fruit fly, the diploid number is 8, which can be written as 2n = 8, where n represents twice the number of chromosomes in a sperm or egg cell.

this is true, assuming that the allele is completely recessive and incomplete dominance is not a factor.
