Answer: (D)
Explanation: biotic factors depend among abiotic factors, meaning that living things need non-living things in order to survive. That also means that biotic factors everywhere including the surrounding area need to be thought of in this sense so that they are able to survive in the environment they are in.
Answer: It is important for cells to divide so you can grow and so your cuts heal. It is also important for cells to stop dividing at the right time. If a cell can not stop dividing when it is supposed to stop, this can lead to a disease called cancer. Some cells, like skin cells, are constantly dividing.
Explanation:
The generally widely accepted first step of the scientific method is to ask a question.
This is where you think of a question which you want to do an experiment on, and then later on conduct an experiment to answer that question.
Answer:
D
Explanation:
Incomplete dominance is a phenomenon in genetic inheritance that occurs when the two alleles of a gene seem equally effective in their influence on a trait. It is a form of Intermediate dominance in which one allele for a specific trait does not completely mask the expression of its paired allele, as opposed to Mendel's law of dominance. Incomplete dominance results in a third phenotype different from the parent phenotypes but a combination of both.
In incomplete dominance, the intermediate/resulting phenotype is the heterozygous genotype.
Gregor Mendel discovered this concept of incomplete dominance in the flower of four o'clock plants when he crossed a purebred (homozygous) red-flowered (RR) with a purebred (homozygous) white-flowered plant (rr) to get F1 offsprings that are all heterozygous but have pink flowers (Rr). He later self-fertilized the F1 offsprings to produce a phenotypic ratio of 1:2:1 consisting of 1 red, 2 pinks, 1 white flower respectively.
This showed that the allele for red flower (R) is incompletely dominant over the allele for white flower (r), hence, producing an offspring with a different trait that arose from the blending of the two phenotypes.
Incomplete dominance is similar but different from co-dominance in the sense that, in co-dominance, both alleles/traits are expressed completely in the new phenotype produced while in incomplete dominance, the new phenotype is just a blending of the two phenotypes.
