In the winter its color changes to more resemble their <em>winter</em> surroundings, so they are more white, enabling them to blend in better with their white surroundings. In summer, its color changes to more resemble its <u><em /></u><em>summer</em> surroundings, so they are more brown like the rocks and ground around them.

Which statement explains why earthquakes tend to be deeper near subduction zones?
ICE Princess25 [194]

Answer:

Option C, At a subduction zone, oceanic crust is forced deep into the Earth.

Explanation:

At sub-duction zone, the dense oceanic plates coincides with the less dense continental plates and thus sink below the continental plates. Sometimes these oceanic plates being dense, sink to greater depth with in the earth’s mantle. The sub-duction zone causes  earth quakes of high intensity when oceanic crust penetrates to greater depths of earth crust as they tend to change the rheology of the earths’ mantle and also causes bending of plates

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
Dvinal [7]

Answer:

Phenotype genotype Number of individuals

Red RR 245

Pink Rr 210

White rr 45

Number of alleles in total

R = 245 + 245 + 210 = 700 ---> 700/1000= 0.7 R frequency

r = 210 + 45 + 45 = 300 -----> 300/1000 = 0.3 r frequency

Predict (Hardy Weinberg) genotype frequencies=

p^2 + 2pq + q^2 = 1

p= 0.7

q=0.3

0.49 + 0.42 + 0.9 =1

According Punnett Squares in F1 we have=

Rr* rr = Rr 50% and rr 50%
