Assuming dragon genetics follow the same rules as fruit flies, we would get the same possible genotype for all 16 offspring provided that the genes are not linked.

Considering dragon genetics, flame eyes (F) are dominant to blue eyes (f) and burbling (B) is dominant to whistling (b).

Now, a dihybrid cross between two homozygous blue-eyed, whistling dragons will yield 16 offspring all with the same possible genotype .i.e. homozygous blue-eyed, whistling type.

Morgan through experiments on fruit flies observed that when the two genes in a dihybrid cross were situated on the same chromosome, the proportion of parental gene combination were much higher than the non-parental type.

He attributed this due to the physical association or linkage of the two genes and coined the term 'linkage' to describe the physical association of genes on a chromosome. The term 'recombination' is to describe the generation of non-parental gene combination.

9. According to Larry Crawford, what is the most difficult part as Growing
Anon25 [30]

Answer:

The correct option is D: Being prepared for harsh weather conditions

Explanation:

Plants are sensitive to the changes in the environment and any drastic changes in their surroundings can potentially cause the plant to go into stress, or possibly even die. Too high or low a temperature and the plant will not be able to cope. Similarly, drastic changes in water levels will really affect its health and growth.

Hope that answers the question, have a great day!

Which of the following does NOT accurately state a transfer of carbon in the carbon cycle?
Doss [256]

Answer:

The point that does NOT accurately indicate a carbon transfer in the carbon cycle is that burning of wood and debris pulls carbon from the atmosphere to use as energy.

Explanation:

The carbon cycle involves the journey that carbon makes between living organisms and their surrounding environment, i.e. the entire biosphere, geosphere, hydrosphere and atmosphere, and is therefore considered a biogeochemical cycle.

In living organisms, inorganic carbon is taken up by plants to make organic molecules, which will be used by animals - which release CO₂ into the atmosphere - or dead organic matter provides carbon to the soil.

The combustion of wood and debris involves the oxidation of a combustible material -which requires oxygen from atmosphere- to then release CO₂ as a product. So it is incorrect to say that burning of wood and debris pulls carbon from the atmosphere to use as energy.
