Energy decreases as it moves up trophic levels because energy is lost as metabolic heat when the organisms from one trophic level are consumed by organisms from the next level. Trophic level transfer efficiency (TLTE) measures the amount of energy that is transferred between trophic levels.
Answer:
Considering the <u>whole progeny</u> (100%), there will be
- 25% Black male kittens, XBY
- 0% Calico Male kittens
- 25% Calico female kittens, XBXR
Explanation:
<u>Available data:</u>
- The gene for Calico (multicolored) cats is an x-linked trait and codominant
- Calico Females receive a "B" and an "R" gene, and have black and orange splotches on white coats. Their genotype is XBXR.
- Males can only be black or orange, but never calico. Their genotype is XBY and XRY
Cross: a female calico cat with a black male
Parentals) XBXR x XBY
Gametes) XB XR XB Y
Punnett square) XB XR
XB XBXB XBXR
Y XBY XRY
F1) Among the whole progeny:
- 2/4 = 50% will be black (female XBXB and male XBY)
- 1/4 = 25% will be Calico (female XBXR)
- 1/4 = 25% will be Orange (male XRY)
Among females:
- 1/2 = 50% of females will be black, XBXB
- 1/2 = 50% of females will be Calico, XBXR
Among males:
- 1/2 = 50% of males will be black, XBY
- 1/2 = 50% of males will be orange, XRY
