This is called 'controlled' or 'prescribed' burning. Usually fires in the environment are regarded as undesirable and dangerous, but fires actually fulfil an important ecological role, and animals and plants had adapted to a certain frequency and intensity of fires. The seeds of some trees or grasses germinate after forest or grass fires, as the more open conditions after a fire allows the seedlings to compete and avoid being shaded and smothered by more established trees. Unfortunately, farming and forestry practices have in many cases resulted in a reduction of fires. A reduction in the frequency of fires also allows the build up of dead wood, and when a wild fire does occur, the amount of available fuel results in very hot, large and damaging fires. Therefore, management of forests and other environments such as prairies often use controlled burns to avoid the buildup of dead organic mass and to replicate the natural fire cycle.

Predict the type of progeny produced by Mendel's crosses between pure-breeding plants with discrete, antagonistic traits, such a
asambeis [7]

Answer:

The progeny produced is 100% heterozygous individuals.

Explanation:

Remember that in Mendel crosses, there are two alleles for each character, in this case for the color of the flowers.

When the problem refers to pure varieties, it refers to individuals with two equal alleles for the same gene.

If two pure varieties with antagonistic characters intersect, 100% of heterozygous individuals will be obtained in the offspring.

As for its phenotype, it will depend on which allele is dominant over the other.
