Have you ever seen the Mississippi River? If so, you probably can infer why it sometimes is called the muddy Mississippi. Many s

maller streams and rivers run into the Mississippi, carrying sediment into its waters. Which statement best describes one effect of this sediment on the river?
A. It promotes photosynthesis in water plants.
B. It can cover up nests and eggs of water birds.
C. It raises the temperature of the water and can kill organisms.
D. It has no effect because the sediment washes out into the ocean.

Answer:

If you hear someone call the Mississippi “the big muddy,” this is only because its color derives from the Missouri. The true Big Muddy is the Missouri River. Its nickname is due to its rich silt laden waters which carry the sediments of the western and midwestern deserts, prairies and mountains.

How do convergent and divergent cause limbs to envole ?
krok68 [10]
Divergent evolution is when two different species share the same ancestral origins but have evolved differently whereas convergent evolution is when species with different ancestral origins have developed similar features.

In convergent evolution, two species that are not necessarily closely related develop similar features often as a result of adaptation to similar conditions.

How is the ownership of the oceans resource Determined
Setler79 [48]

Answer:

technically its everyone's but isn't at the same time

Explanation:

The UN Convention on the Law of the Seas states the different rights and regulations regarding specific nations’ rights to oceans. For instance, coastal states have jurisdiction over the 12 nautical miles off their coastlines, and 200 nautical miles are reserved for specific states to utilize the oceanic materials, living and nonliving, in their zone. This can include fishing, the mining of minerals but also includes the obligation to protect the ocean and its biodiversity.

Fruit color in a particular plant is controlled by a set of three quantitative trait loci (i.e., QTLs or polygenes), that work i
tankabanditka [31]

Answer:

1/8

Explanation:

Given that the trihybrid parents have AaBbCc genotype for fruit color. The trait is a quantitative trait i.e. each dominant allele will have an additive effect on it. In this case, AaBbCc and AABBCC will not produce same fruit color because AaBbCc has only three loci contributing to the color while in AABBCC all the six loci are contributing to the color. For an offspring to be exactly similar to the AaBbCc parents it should have the same genotype of AaBbCc.

The probability of Aa to come from a cross between Aa and Aa is 2/4 or 1/2

The probability of Bb to come from a cross between Bb and Bb is 2/4 or 1/2

The probability of Cc to come from a cross between Cc and Cc is 2/4 or 1/2

So the collective probability of AaBbCc offspring from a cross between AaBbCc and AaBbCc parents would be=

1/2 * 1/2 * 1/2 = 1/8

Hence, assuming no effects of the environment, 1/8 of the offspring will have the same fruit color phenotype as the trihybrid parent.
