The correct answer is trophic level.

Feeding relationship of different organisms in which one is being eaten by other is called food chain. Each group of organisms in a food chain is called trophic level. Green plants are producers which make their food with the help of sun energy is included in one trophic level. Similarly plant eaters or herbivores are primary consumers and those animals which feed on primary consumers are secondary or tertiary or top consumers are other trophic levels.

The observed numbers for dominant and recessive types in an F2 generation are 154 and 46. What would the expected number of indi

katen-ka-za [31]

Answer: Expected heterozygous genotype = 2×46 = 92

Explanation:

According to the hypothesis of segregation of paired genes in heterozygous F1 generation crosses produces 1:2:1 genotype ratio. This means that all these three possible genotypes should be produced in the F2 generation meaning that we have 1(Dominant homozygous) :2 (Dominant heterozygous): 1 (Recessive Homozygous).

Phenotypic ratio shared (dominant: recessive) = 154 and 46

If recessive homozygous phenotype = recessive homozygous genotype = 46

The expected dominant heterozygous genotype= 2 × (recessive homozygous genotype)

= 2 × 46 = 92

Deep water rises along the coast of Peru to replace surface water carried away from the coast by strong winds. Why is upwelling

SCORPION-xisa [38]

Upwelling is important to mix the nutrients that are present deep inside the water.Updewelling is a phenomenon in which the deeper water rises and gets mixed to the surface water to promote the growth of phytoplanktons and seaweeds as the water that is present deep inside is rich in nutrients.These phytoplanktons serve as as source of energy for large fishes and other aquatic animals. As these large animals are higher in population and are an important part of food chain and they also provide food to different marine mammals ,sea birds.The deep water infuses with costal water so to serve as a fuel for high productivity of marine ecosystem.
