Hydrophobic is when it cannot dissolve in water and hydrophilic is when it can. an example is a phospholipid in the cell membrane- the the tails are hydrophobic and the heads are hydrophilic.
Answer:
1/4
Explanation:
Given that the F2 cross produces offspring according to the expected 9:3:3:1 ratio.
YyRr X YyRr:
Let us break the dihybrid cross into individual monohybrid crosses.
Yy X Yy :
Y y
Y YY Yy
y Yy yy
2/4 or 1/2 of the offspring are heterozygous for the trait.
Similarly, in Rr X Rr cross, 1/2 of the offspring are heterozygous for the trait.
Together, 1/2 * 1/2 = 1/4 of F2 plants are expected to be heterozygous for both traits.
Answer:
Homologous
Explanation:
If two or more species share a unique physical feature, such as a complex bone structure or a body plan, they may all have inherited this feature from a common ancestor. Physical features shared due to evolutionary history (a common ancestor) are said to be homologous.
Answer:
The correct answer is B. <em>Philippine plate converging with the Pacific plate, forming Mariana Islands in the Pacific Ocean</em>
Explanation:
When two oceanic plates collide, it occurs oceanic convergence. The thicker and older plate subduces under the other plate, and at this point, it starts the volcanic activity. As the thicker plate descends, it is heated and melted and its materials are incorporated into the mantle. The fast subduction originates magma that ascends to the surface by crevices. This makes place to the formation of grouped volcanic islands, the island arches. Subduction zones coincide with deep-sea trenches or depressions in the ocean bed. The volcanic islands are arranged in a circumference arch shape, which is bordered by a fossa. Most of these are located in the western Pacific, where the pacific crust is older and thicker, and hence it submerges easier in the mantle.
The Mariana Islands in the Pacific Ocean are examples of these volcanic islands.
