We do quite often have mutt birds. (the correct name for such a mutt is a hybrid. <span>They are way more common than most people think, but unless you are a birdwatcher you probably wouldn’t even spot them. People often see an odd looking birds and simply think it’s a type they haven’t seen before, when in fact it is a hybrid of two well-known species. 

Having said that, for birds to hybridized they have to be fairly closely related to start with. Robins and blue jays are no more closely related than humans are to baboons. You wouldn’t expect a human and a baboon to be able to mate and produce babies would you? So no, robins and blue jays can’t interbreed.

However there are many different species of animal that CAN interbreed and produce offspring. But the different species need to be fairly closely related, far more closely than human and baboon… or a blue jay and a robin.

For example we can interbreed horses and donkeys to produce baby mules, and we can breed cattle and buffalo, or camels and llamas. And the same is true of birds. While blue jays can’t be bred with robins in the wild we quite frequently find mutt birds.

<span> Ducks are particularly noted for forming wild mutts and many if not all north American mallards for example are of mixed species ancestry.</span>

Which two organs of a plant interact to cause seedlings to grow upward
Pie

There's tropism and stimulus, for starters. Gravity, light, and touch can all be used as stimuli. So it is debatable... If the plant is reaching upwards towards a window that is above it... It would then be light, and the plant's response would be to reach upward.

Hope this helps and if it does, don't be afraid to give my answer a "Thanks" and maybe a Brainliest?

g a true breeding pea plant with round and green seeds was crossed to a true-breeding pea plant with wrinkled and yellow seeds.
Sveta_85 [38]

Answer:

The probability of producing a round and green plant from this cross is 3/16

Explanation:

This question involves two distinct genes coding for seed shape and seed colour. In the seed shape gene, allele for round seeds (R) is dominant over allele for wrinked seeds (r), while in the seed colour gene, allele for yellow seed (Y) is dominant over allele for green seeds (y).

A truebreeding plant means that the plant possesses homozygous genotype. Hence, a truebreeding pea plant with round and green seeds will have genotype: RRyy while true-breeding pea plant with wrinkled and yellow seeds will have genotype: rrYY. These two parents will produce F1 offsprings with genotype: RrYy (heterozygous).

When the F1 offsprings are self-crossed (RrYy × RrYy), the following allelic combinations of gametes will be produced by each F1 parent: RY, Ry, rY, ry

Using these gametes in a punnet square (see attached image), 16 possible F2 offsprings with a phenotypic ratio 9:3:3:1 will be produced

9- Round yellow offsprings (R_Y_)

3- Round green offsprings (R_yy)

3- Wrinkled yellow offsprings (rrY_)

1- Wrinkled green offsprings (rryy)
