How is the Great Barrier Reef’s population affected by abiotic factors?
Evgen [1.6K]
The Great Barrier Reef, located off of Australia’s eastern coast, is the largest coral reef ecosystem in the world. The reef covers an area over 300,000 square kilometers and includes a wide range of ocean depth, and it contains such biodiversity as to make it one of the most complex ecosystems on Earth. Much like any other ecosystem on Earth, the Great Barrier Reef relies on biotic and abiotic components to keep it functional and stable.

Two brothers inherit different sets of alleles from their parents. what effect will they have?
lesya692 [45]
Depending on what trait the alleles carry, the brothers will have a different phenotype and a different genotype.
For example; Eye color. My sister is heterozygous, meaning she has brown eyes. I am homozygous recessive, meaning I have blue(green/hazel) eyes. We both have the same parents, I just happened to inherit both of the recessive eye color alleles from my parents whereas, my sister inherited both the dominant and recessive alleles. 

So, since the brothers inherited different sets of alleles, their genotype for a certain trait will be different.
