The groundwater is being discharged faster than it is being recharged is the data suggested.

Option D

<h3><u>Ex planation:</u></h3>

Ground water level is the level of underground storage of water above the impermeable rock layer. The underground water is getting filtered through different layers of permeable rocks before it enters the final layer. So it’s fresh and ready to be consumed as it is taken out. Thus for centuries, it’s being used as the source of drinking water.

But with increasing population, the ground water is being consumed at the rate very faster than it can be refilled from different sources like precipitation, rivers and other water bodies. So its level tends to get lower and lower as this continues until the point it gets finished.

Fruit color in a particular plant is controlled by a set of three quantitative trait loci (i.e., QTLs or polygenes), that work i
tankabanditka [31]

Answer:

1/8

Explanation:

Given that the trihybrid parents have AaBbCc genotype for fruit color. The trait is a quantitative trait i.e. each dominant allele will have an additive effect on it. In this case, AaBbCc and AABBCC will not produce same fruit color because AaBbCc has only three loci contributing to the color while in AABBCC all the six loci are contributing to the color. For an offspring to be exactly similar to the AaBbCc parents it should have the same genotype of AaBbCc.

The probability of Aa to come from a cross between Aa and Aa is 2/4 or 1/2

The probability of Bb to come from a cross between Bb and Bb is 2/4 or 1/2

The probability of Cc to come from a cross between Cc and Cc is 2/4 or 1/2

So the collective probability of AaBbCc offspring from a cross between AaBbCc and AaBbCc parents would be=

1/2 * 1/2 * 1/2 = 1/8

Hence, assuming no effects of the environment, 1/8 of the offspring will have the same fruit color phenotype as the trihybrid parent.
