Adhesion of water to the surface of a material will cause an upward force on the liquid. The surface tension acts to hold the surface intact. Capillary action occurs when the adhesion to the surface material is stronger than the cohesive forces between the water molecules.

Which of the following have been linked to the dramatic global decline of amphibian populations? Select one: a. drainage of wetl
charle [14.2K]
<h2>The correct answer is: e.</h2>

Explanation:

  • Decline in the global population of amphibians is due to multiple reasons which include:
  1. A moist ecosystem is necessary for amphibians especially for the purpose of their reproduction. The drainage of the wetlands deprives them of their habitat.
  2. Pollutants adversely affects the survival of the gametes, tadpoles or the adult amphibians by acting as toxic agents and inhibiting their normal metabolic function.
  3. Infectious diseases often cause their death resulting their population to decline.
  4. Global climate warming affects their normal metabolic growth and development and hence causes their population to decline.

El pelo rizado en los perros, domina sobre el pelo liso. Calcular el porcentaje del fenotipo de los descendientes de una pareja
creativ13 [48]

Answers:

el pelo rizado en los perros domina sobre el pelo liso. una pareja de pelo rizado tuvo un cachorro de pelo tambien rizado y del que se quiere saber si es heterocigótico ¿ con que tipo de hembras tendrá que cruzarse?

4.6/5

296

El cachorro puede ser "Aa" o "AA". Se quiere saber si es "Aa". Para eso, tendría que cruzarse o con un homocigoto recesivo (aa), puesto que es el que da un 50% de probabilidades de que los hijos sean de pelo rizado.

Entonces, si se cruza con un homocigoto recesivo, la probabilidad de la descendencia debería ser 2 cachorros de pelo rizado y 2 cachorros de pelo liso.

La hembra tendría que ser de pelo liso para asegurarse de que sea homocigoto recesivo.

Si todos los cachorros salen con el pelo rizado, entonces el padre es homocigoto "AA".

Si al menos uno sale con el pelo liso, entonces el padre es heterocigoto "Aa"
