Their bodies taper to points at both the snout and the tail, reducing water resistance. Also decreasing drag -- and therefore noise -- are dermal denticles, sharp scales that cover the skin of most shark species.  Rather than bone, sharks have cartilage, which is much lighter and more flexible. In addition, their livers produce squalene, a fatty oil that helps them remain afloat. Their pectoral fins allow them to quickly change direction, dive and swim upward.

In a certain breed of plants, dark green is determined by the dominant gene 'G' and light green is determined by the recessive g
stealth61 [152]

Answer:

The answer is 300.

Explanation:

When we cross GG and gg, 100% of the offspring will be heterozygous. If the heterozygotes show 75% penetrance meaning that there is a 75% probability that the plant that has the G gene will actually show it in it's phenotype.

So that means that 75% of the offspring should have dark green color, which means that 300 plants will have the expected phenotype and 100 will not.

I hope this answer helps.
