Coral bleaching occurs when the zooxanthellae algae that live in coral leave or die due to stress. Which of the following is the

best evidence of a mutualistic relationship between zooxanthellae and coral rather than commensalism?
Corals are stressed and more likely to die without zooxanthellae; the zooxanthellae grow best when associated with the corals.
Corals deliberately expel the zooxanthellae when under stress.
Zooxanthellae give corals their bright colors.
Zooxanthellae provide nutrients to the corals, but corals can survive without zooxanthellae.

I believe the answer is that;Corals are stressed and more likely to die without zooxanthellae; the zooxanthellae grow best when associated with the corals.
The corals and the algae have a mutualistic relationship. The coral provides the algae with a protected environment and compounds they need for photosynthesis. In return, the algae produce oxygen and help the coral to remove wastes. Most importantly, zooxanthellae supply coral with glucose, glycerol, and amino acids, which are the products of photosynthesis.

Heterozygous alleles are found on ________ chromosomes
Ksju [112]

Answer is Homologous.

A diploid individual having two different alleles for a specific trait is called heterozygous. An allele is the alternative form of the same gene. The cells in diploid organisms contain sets of homologous chromosomes, which are paired chromosomes. Each chromosome of a homologous pair has the same genes on the same positions. Although homologous chromosomes have the same genes, they may have different alleles for those genes.  

Example: The gene for seed color trait in a pea plant exists in pair. One gene or allele for yellow seed (R) and the other for green seed color (r). A heterozygous plant would contain alleles for seed color (Rr). Gene R is present one chromosome and its allele (r) is present on the other chromosome of the homologous pair.
