Zygote must receive Y chromosomes
401 of these offspring are expected to have long plumage.
To calculate the number of these offspring that are expected to have long plumage the following cross multiplication calculation must be performed:
- Total birds = 72 + 252 = 324
- Long plumage birds = 55 + 75 = 130
- 324 = 130
- 1000 = X
- 1000 x 130/324 = X
- 130000/324 = X
- 401.23 = X
Therefore, 401 of these offspring are expected to have long plumage.

Nitrogen.
Plants cannot use atmospheric nitrogen directly. Nitrogen from the air must be converted into the different form so plants can absorb it. Thus plants need nitrogen-fixing bacteria to convert atmospheric nitrogen into ammonium, which is available for plants to absorb it.
Algae produces a estimated 30-50 percent of the net global oxygen .
