Explanation:
ALL options are as follows -
a. teosinte and maize can produce fertile hybrids.
b. teosinte and maize have similar chromosomes.
c. Both Teosinte and maize have naked, soft kernel.
d. Teosinte and maize can produce fertile hybrids
Solution
Beadle started working on maize genetics since 1962 after joining graduate school at Cornell University.
During his research he found that the chromosomes of teosinte and maize possess higher similarity and also show signs of intercross ability of the two species and hence confirmed that wild teosinte is an ancestor of domesticated maize.
He later concluded that there are only 4 to 5 genes that make these two species different from each other rest all is similar.
Option B is correct
Answer:
Tofu and soy oil come from soy bean plants that are grown on farms. Many farmers grow soy beans as cash crops that they can send to places such as tofu processing plants. Soybean plants are legumes. Legumes have bacteria on nodules which are on the roots of the plant. The bacteria on the nodules takes nitrogen from the air and fixes it into the soil, so that other plants that require nitrogen can use it as well.
This nitrogen cycle that was breifly discussed above is used in what farmers call a crop rotation. Farmers use soybeans and other legumes in roatations with grass crops such as corn or wheat. Grass crops are unable to take their own nitrogen from the air so they either need the nitrogen in the soil that the legumes provide for them in a crop rotation or they need a chemical fertilizer containing nitrogen. Many farmers choose to use both. Most farmers use a two or four year rotation on their fields. In a two year rotation a farmer will alternate a year of a legume such as soybeans and a year of a grass crop such as corn. In a four year rotation a farmer will alternate back and forth between legumes and grass crops just as in a two year rotation, but instead he will use four differnt crops. For example, a farmer may plant a rotation of soybeans, corn, alfalfa (a legume), then wheat (a grass).
Answer:
The North produced 17 times more cotton and woolen textiles than the South, 30 times more leather goods, 20 times more pig iron, and 32 times more firearms. The North produced 3,200 firearms to every 100 produced in the south
