The genotype of the short-haired parents that produced some long hair offsprings is probably heterozygous.

<h3>What is heterozygosity?</h3>

Heterozygous means an organism which has two different alleles of a given gene.

An organism that is heterozygous posseses two different alleles of the same gene. For example, in this gene coding for hair length;

  • L represents short hair (dominant)
  • l represents long hair (recessive)

Therefore, if two short-haired parents produce 100 offsprings and 25 of them are long-haired, it means that they were probably heterozygous for the short hair.

What reasons besides being necessary for the methane cycle, can you think of that might
Stella [2.4K]

Titan's rivers, lakes, and seas of liquid methane and ethane could provide a habitable environment on the moon's surface, though any life there would most likely be very different from life on Earth.

Methane gas is effective at trapping heat and burns quickly. As a result, methane is one of the most important human fuels. Furthermore, methane in the atmosphere helps to regulate the Earth's climate.

Over the first 20 years after it enters the atmosphere, methane has more than 80 times the warming power of carbon dioxide. Even though CO2 has a longer lasting effect, methane drives warming in the short term. Methane from human activity is responsible for at least 25% of today's global warming.

As a result, methane not only contributes to global warming directly, but also indirectly through the release of carbon dioxide.

What is the order of these objects as it occurs in a microscope, beginning with the eye to the specimen on the stage.
AleksAgata [21]
<h2>Order of parts of a microscope </h2>

First – ocular lens

Second – Body tube

Third – Revolving Nosepiece

Fourth – Objective lens

Fifth – Coverslip

Explanation:

Ocular lens: The lens present in the eyepiece at the top of the microscope, close to the eyes, through which a person looks through the microscope to view the specimen. Magnification of ocular lens in a compound microscope is usually 10x

Body tube: The tube that connects the eyepiece with the objective of the microscope for continuous optical alignment.

Revolving Nosepiece: The turret that holds the objective and revolves to select the objective lens according to its magnification

Objective lens: The objective lens is located above the specimen rack. Objective lens creates the primary image of the specimen viewed through the eyepiece. A single compound microscope can have more than two objective lens and their magnification ranges from 4x, 10x, 40x, 100x power.

Coverslip: The cover glass which covers the objective lens and prevent from touching the specimen . This is the object directly above the specimen.
