The kinetic energy of a moving car is less than the amount of chemical potential energy that is released when fuel is burned in the engine. Which
statement best explains why this is so?
A. More of the car's energy is transformed into potential energy the
faster it goes.
B. Friction causes some of the energy released by the fuel to be
transformed into thermal energy,
C. Some chemical energy is transformed into potential energy as the
particles in the fuel are rearranged.
D. The force of gravity transforms some kinetic energy into
gravitational potential energy.

In the nineteenth century, gregor mendel first determined some basic rules of genetics that have been observed throughout all types of life. no observations have disproved these basic rules of genetics. charles darwin developed the idea of biological evolution around the same time, but he was unaware of mendel’s discoveries in genetics. over a century later, darwin’s idea of evolution was modified in order to incorporate mendel’s rules of genetics along with the other evidence that darwin had used. what is most likely the relationship between mendel’s rules of genetics and darwin’s idea of biological evolution? a.)mendel’s genetics states laws that are now part of the theory of biological evolution.b.)biological evolution states laws that are part of mendel’s theory of genetics.c.)mendel’s genetics replaced darwin’s entire concept of biological evolution.d.)biological evolution is a law that explains why all genetics exist.
