The answer is Meiosis because Mitosis is when the daughter cell is exactly the same as the parent and Meiosis creates 2 cells the same and are divided in half to create 4 different cells with half the number of chromosomes....

How does the pitcher plant digest insects?

mihalych1998 [28]

Q#1
- Carnivorous plants decoy insects by sweet scent or color.
- Not expecting threats insects sit on the plant. This catches them using mechanical traps or sticky substances.
- Then, the plant produces digestive enzymes that break down proteins, fats and sugars which make up the body of the victims for simple compounds which plant can absorb.
Q#2. Carnivorous plants grow in mineral-poor soil, raise substances necessary for life from the bodies of trapped animals. They hunt animals, so that the surface on which they grow, no nutrients they need.
Q#3.Plants by digesting insects provide each large dose of nitrates are lacking in the soil.
Q#4.<span>When a pitcher plant is grown in nitrogen rich soil it grows tall. Insects are it's food source so if it doesn't get any food, it will starve. </span>

There are 100 cats in a population that follows hardy-weinberg conditions. 4 cats display a recessive white coat color. how many

mr Goodwill [35]

We know that Hardy-Weinberg conditions include the following equations:

$p^{2}+2pq+ q^{2}=1$

where $p+q=1$

And where p = dominant, and q = recessive; this means that $p^{2}$ is equal to the homozygous dominant, $2pq$ is the heterozygous, and $q^{2}$ is the homozygous recessive .

So we have 100 total cats, with 4 having the recessive white coat color. That means we have a ratio of $\frac{4}{100}$ or 0.04. Let that equal our $q^{2}$ value.

So when we solve for q, we get:

$q^{2}=0.04$

$q=\sqrt{0.04} =0.2$

Now that we have our q value, we can use the other equation to find p:

$p+q=1$

$p+0.2=1$

$p=0.8$

So then we can solve for our heterozygous population:

$2pq=2(0.8)(0.2)=0.32$

This is the ratio of the population. So we then multiply this number by 100 to get the number of cats that are heterozygous:

$0.32*100=32cats$

So now we know that there are 32 heterozygous cats in the population.

In cross-fostering studies, the young of one species are placed in the care of adults from another species. in broad terms, what

Bess [88]

These sorts of studies can help researchers determine the relative importance of nurture and nature in determining a trait. Nature here would refer to genetics passed down to an individual from its parents, whereas nurture refers to the environment the individual is exposed to.
