Answer: The correct answer is Diffusion.

The molecules of carbon dioxide enter the oceans through the process of diffusion into the surface of sea water and dissolve by a physio-chemical process. The factors affecting the amount of carbon dioxide diffusion includes wind, concentration of carbon dioxide, temperature of the water etc. The carbon dioxide which diffuses into the oceans reacts with water forming carbonic acid, carbonate and bicarbonate ions. The gaseous form of carbon dioxide in atmosphere is converted to non-gaseous form reduces the carbon dioxide pressure in the water and promotes more diffusion from the atmosphere.

) Consider a pea plant- it has a gene controlling seed color- yellow Vs green; another gene controlling seed texture-smooth Vs w

lana [24]

Answer:

Yellow smooth - 9

Yellow wrinkle - 3

Green smooth- 3

Green Wrinkle - 1

Explanation:

Let the green color of the seed be depicted by "G" and the yellow color of the seed be depicted by "g"

Let the smooth the seed be depicted by "R" and wrinkled seed be depicted by "r"

F1 cross -

true breeding smooth green plant ( RRGG) and true breeding wrinkled yellow (rrgg)

F1 gamete will be RG, RG, rg, rg

F1 offspring will be RrGg , Thus all F1 offspring will be heterozygous smooth and yellow.

Thus, R is dominant over r and g is dominant over G

F2 Generation –

RrGg x RrGg

Gametes will be RG, Rg, rG, rg

RG Rg rG rg

RG RRGG RRGg RrGG RrGg

Rg RRGg RRgg RrGg Rrgg

rG RrGG RrGg rrGG rrGg

rg RrGg Rrgg rrGg rrgg

R is dominant over r and g is dominant over G

Genotypes are –

RRGG - 1 (Smooth Green)

RRGg-2 (Smooth yellow)

RrGG-2 (Smooth Green)

RrGg-4 (Smooth yellow)

RRgg- 1 (smooth yellow)

Rrgg – 2 (Smooth yellow)

rrGG – 1 (wrinkled Green)

rrGg – 2 (Wrinkled yellow)

rrgg – 1 (wrinkled yellow)

Yellow smooth - 9

Yellow wrinkle - 3

Green smooth- 3

Green Wrinkle - 1
