Answer:

Second Punnett on the first attachment.

Explanation:

In a 4 x 4 Punnett there are a total of 4 squares. Twenty five percent (25%) of 4 is 1. This means that only 1 square out of the 4 should have the genotype that you are looking for.

Okay going at it in a biological sense. Because red eyes is dominant, we know that the allele should be represented by a capital R. It is X-linked, so it should be on the X. The problem is looking for the probability of a male offspring so the combination should be XY (this means the offspring is male, XX is for females).

So taking that all together, you're looking for the genotype combination:

X^{R}Y

So you need to find the Punnett that has only 1 square with this combination. The attachment shows which specific Punnett:

what is the most common way that nitrogen fixation occurs? lightning nitrogen fixing bacteria fossil fuel combustion forest fire
RSB [31]

Legumes harbor nitrogen-fixing bacteria and are therefore good crops to grow to replenish the soil. Most nitrogen fixation occurs naturally, in the soil, by bacteria.

Nitrogen fixation and exchange of form that occurs in the soil. Some bacteria attach to plant roots and have a symbiotic relationship that is beneficial to both the plant and the bacteria with the plant. Nitrogen fixing bacteria accomplish more than 90 percent of all nitrogen fixation and therefore play an important role in the nitrogen cycle. processes that can fix nitrogen atmospheric, be process and biological. Atmospheric fixation occurs when the high temperature of lightning splits nitrogen gas so that it unites with oxygen and moisture in the air to form nitrates that fall to the ground. Nitrogen fixation occurs among some termites and fungi. It occurs naturally in the air through the production of NOx by lightning. All biological reactions that involve the process of nitrogen fixation are catalyzed by enzymes called nitrogenases.
