In genetics, an allele is an alternative form of a gene. Usually, a single pair of alleles controls a character or trait. In a pair of alleles, one may be dominant over the other ( e.g. any one character studied by Mendel). Alleles always occupy the same position/locus on the homologous chromosomes.

Partial and total internal reflection When light enters a rarer medium from a denser medi , it gets partially reflected i.e part of the light gets reflected and comes back into the denser medium as per laws of reflection. This is called partial reflection. The rest of the light gets refracted and goes into the rarer medium. As light is going from denser to rarer medium, it bends away from the normal i.e. the angle of incidence , is smaller than the angle of refraction . This is shown on the left side of the figure 6.9. If we increase will also increase according to Snell's law as the refractive index is a constant. For a particular value of , the value of becomes equal to . This value of is called the critical angle. For angles of incidence larger than the critical angle, the angle of refraction is larger than . Such rays return to the denser medium as shown towards the right in figure 6.9. Thus, all the light gets reflected back into the dense medium. This is called total internal reflection. We can determine the value of the critical angle the as follows. Rainbow is a beautiful natural. phenomenon. It is-the combined effect of a number of natural processes. It is the combined effect of dispersion, refraction and total internal reflection of light. It can be seen mainly after a rainfall. Small droplets of water act as small prisms. When light rays from the Sun enter these droplets, it gets refracted and dispersed. Then there is internal reflection as shown in the figure, and after that once again the light gets refracted while coming out of the droplet. All these three processes together produce the 6.10 Rainbow production rainbow. Books are my friends Some Fun 1. Why the Sky is Blue - Dr. C.V. Raman talks about science Try to see if you :C. V.
