The parental phenotype is the mother's free earlobes (Ff) and the father's nonfree earlobes (ff).
<h3>What genotype and phenotype?</h3>
The genotype refers to the information present in an individual's genome. Unlike the phenotype, it is not observable and rarely changes. The phenotype, in turn, depends on a combination between our genotype and the environment and can be defined as the observable characteristics of an individual.
With this information, we can conclude that the parental phenotype is the mother's free earlobes (Ff) and the father's nonfree earlobes (ff).

Answer:The real answer is D
Explanation:
Answer:
1- Option A) describes an index fossil. Trilobite existed for a short time, but was abundant and lived in many locations.
2- Option B) Continents were once joined and have since drifted apart.
Explanation:
1) Fossils are animal and vegetable rests found in different strata of sedimentary rocks. Sedimentary layers deposit chronologically, so they are used to reflect history. They keep in each layer some of the forms of life that inhabited that area in the past. These fossils turn to be very useful while dating ages. The term Index fossils refer to those fossils that only existed in a given era or geological period during evolution.
Index fossils must:
• Be easily recognizable and distinguishable from all the other fossils
• Have lived in a relatively short geological period
• Present a wide geographic distribution
• Have lived in different sedimentary basins
• Appear in different types of rocks
• Be abundant
<em>A) Trilobite existed for a short time, but was abundant and lived in many locations. </em>The species accomplish the requirements. It is easily recognizable, had a wide geographic distribution, was abundant, and lived for a short time.
2) The tectonic plates theory states that there is a continual movement of the crust. It explains the movement of the different plates and their directions and interactions. The continental drift theory explains how these movements have been taking place since millions of years ago. When continents were together in a unique continent, many species used to inhabit it. When plates started to separate, they took some of these species that got apart by the ocean. Some species were already dead and fossilized, while some other organisms died during continental drift and got fossilized after the divergence. <em>The existence of the same fossils, placed in the same layers and of the same age, suggests that they used to inhabit the same area and died during the same time, meaning that continents were together when they got fossilized. </em>
Answer:
In an ecosystem photosynthetic plants act as producers wheres other organism act as consumers.
Explanation:
Green plants undergo photosynthesis to produce their own food as a result they are called producers and are placed in the first tropic label of energy pyramid.
The other organism that intake green plants are called primary consumers for example grasshopper. The primary consumers are placed in the second tropic label of energy pyramid.
The other consumers are termed as secondary consumers or primary carnivores that feed on primary consumers For example Snake because it eats grasshopper and is placed in the third tropic label.
Finally the tertiary consumers or secondary carnivores consumes secondary consumers to intake energy from them.For example Hawk eats snake,as a result hawk act as secondary carnivores and are placed in the top of the energy pyramid.
