Answer:

Option C

Explanation

The shallow water consists of heavy metals.

Shallow water well receives water from the upper water table and hence they are more prone to ground contamination and discharges.

Therefore, all sources of shallow water will be inadequate for drinking, washing, farming etc. Hence, in order to get pure well, deep aquifers will be dug as water from greater depth are least exposed to surface contamination

Hence, option C is correct

In a hypothetical population of plants, flower color is determined by a single gene with two alleles. In a population of 500 pla
blondinia [14]

Answer:

In the F1 generation

RR = 0%

Rr = 50% (or 0.5)

rr = 50% (or 0.5)

Explanation:

A pink flowering plant has the genotype Rr. It is heterozygous for the allele. The alleles for this gene appears to show incomplete dominance, as the heterozygous phenotype is a blend of the two homozygous genotypes.

A white flowering plant has the genotype rr. It is homozyogous for the white allele

A punnet square of the cross is shown.

The resulting punnet square shows that only Rr and rr genotypes are possible, at a ratio of 50:50 (or 1:1). Therefore, the genotype frequency of Rr is 50%, and rr is 50% in the F1 generation. This can also be written as 0.5. It is not possible to get a red plant, as the genotype RR can not come from this cross

In a plant cell wall the layer that is between a membrane, adding additional protection and support; not found in all plant cell
Tomtit [17]

Answer: SECONDARY CELL WALL.

Explanation: When cell wall grow,it becomes thickened,then it further deposits new layers of a different material (different from that of the primary cell wall) from where secondary cell wall is formed.

This secondary cell wall is made up of cellulose,hemicellulose,and lignin.

They function in providing additional strength,support, rigidity to cells and the larger plant.
