Photosynthesising primary producers require sunlight. Therefore, in the ocean, phytoplankton would be concentrated within the surface layers of the ocean where the sunlight penetrates. Phytoplankton support a wide range of marine life: zooplankton feed on phytoplankton, which in turn support fish and so on.

A fruit fly of genotype B R/b r is testcrossed with b r/b r. In 84 percent of the meioses, there are no chiasmata between the li
Citrus2011 [14]

Answer:

4 percent (4%)

Explanation:

A single crossover occurs between two (non-sister) chromatids belonging to homologous chromosomes. In this case, 16 percent of the meioses have a single crossover, thereby it will produce 8 percent of the chromosomes with the original (parental) combination in the progeny and the remaining 8 percent should be recombinants. From this result, it is reasonable to conclude that half of these recombinants should be 'Br' (and the other remaining 4 percent should be recombinants 'bR'), and therefore the answer is 4 percent (4%).

Bezzdna [24]
There is a 3/4 chance their offspring will be black. If you make a Punnett's (I hope that's how you spell it) square then you will find that one offspring will be homozygous for black hair, two will be heterozygous with black hair, and one will be homozygous with brown hair. Therefore, there's a 3/4 chance the offspring will have black hair. Hope this helped!
