Answer:
75%
Explanation:
This question involves a single gene coding for the ability to taste the chemical PTC. The allele coding for the ability to taste (T) is dominant over the allele coding for the inability to taste (t). This means that an heterozygous individual will have the ability to taste PTC.
According to this question, if two heterozygous tasters (Tt) cross to have a large family i.e. Tt × Tt, the following gametes will be produced by each parent;
Tt = T and t
Using these gametes in a punnet square (see attached image), the following proportion of offsprings will be produced:
TT, Tt, Tt - Tasters (3/4 or 75%)
tt - Non-taster (1/4 or 25%)
Note that based on the question asked, there is a 75% probability that their first child will be a taster because there is equal segregation of alleles into gametes.
Answer: D
Explanation: The important thing to notice in this question is that it's asking for the FORMATION of a NEW species. That detail automatically removes B as the answer, because, while an invasive species <em>could </em>lead to a new species, it isn't likely, and there's the fact that B is talking about the INTRODUCTION of a species that already exists.
A could be correct, but fertilizer isn't likely to lead to a new species, as well as C, which would lead to a LOSS in species and biodiversity.
D is correct because it is an example of Allopatric Speciation, which is when one species converges into 2 species because of a physical barrier.
I hope this helps. Have a great week!
The passive transport of water is specifically called osmosis.
Answer:
It should be 2- Bonds
Explanation:
Energy, potential energy, is stored in the covalent bonds holding atoms together in the form of molecules.
