Hello. This question is incomplete. The full question is:

"Why are algae and ferns both green?  They each contain chlorophyll that absorbs violet-blue light and reflects green light.  They each contain chlorophyll that absorbs green light and reflects violet-blue light.  Algae contain chlorophyll, and ferns contain ferredoxin that absorbs violet-blue light and reflects green light.  Ferns contain chlorophyll, and algae contain ferredoxin that absorbs green light and reflects violet-blue light."

Answer:

They each contain chlorophyll that absorbs violet-blue light and reflects green light.  

Explanation:

Chlorophyll is the pigment present in all vegetables. This is a natural pigment responsible for the color that we visualize in the plant. There are several different types of chlorophyll, however the most common is the one that absorbs blue violet light and reflects green light, allowing us to be able to visualize plants in green.

Chlorophyll can be seen in other organisms, in addition to plants, like algae, for example.

Often the plants have other colors and not green. These planats contain chlorophyll, but they also contain substances that modify the natural pigment of chlorophyll.

What degrees is the tilt of the earth
Anestetic [448]
Instead, Earth has seasons because our planet's axis of rotation is tilted at an angle of 23.5 degrees relative to our orbital plane – the plane of Earth's orbit around the sun. The tilt in the axis of the Earth is called its obliquity by scientists.

Which of the following is true about natural selection? ​
Anna007 [38]

The options for this question are:

- Requires genetic variation

- Results in descent with modification

- Involves differential reproductive success

- All of the above

Answer:

<u><em>The correct option is d) All of the above</em></u>

Explanation:

The theory of natural selection explains that genetic variations occur in organisms of a species. Those organisms which are better adapted to live in an environment are able to survive and pass on their characteristics to their offsprings, hence descent with modification. Through this phenomenon, evolution takes place with the passage of time. Natural selection favours survival of the fittest. Hence, all of the above statements are true.

In Guinea pigs, short hair is dominant and long hair is recessive. A
larisa86 [58]

Answer:

a. S represents allele for short hair while s represents allele for long hair.

b. Ss (male) × ss (female)

c. 50% Ss, 50% ss

d. 3 long hair (ss), 3 short hair (Ss)

Explanation:

This question involves a single gene coding for hair length in guinea pigs. The allele for short hair (S) is dominant over the allele for long hair (s).

a. Letter "S" will represent the allele for short hair while letter "s" will represent the allele for long hair.

b. According to this question, a heterozygous male is crossed with a long-haired female. The genotype of the male guinea pig is "Ss" while that of the female is "ss". (see attachment for the punnet square)

c. The possible genotypes of the offsprings in this cross are: Ss and ss, each carrying 50% each as they are produced in a ½ Ss: ½ ss.

d. Since 50% of the offsprings will be both short haired and long haired, If they have six babies, 3 of them will be short-haired while 3 of them will also be long-haired.
