What causes the doldrums to be calm winds?
arlik [135]

Earth revolves around the sun, keeping doldrums stationary causes the doldrums to be calm winds. Thus, the correct option is C.

<h3>Why are the doldrums so calm?</h3>

The Intertropical Convergence Zone, also known as the doldrums or calms by sailors due to its constant lack of wind, is the area where the northeast and southeast trade winds meet. It encircles the Earth near the thermal equator, however its exact location changes with the seasons.

The sunlight beams down directly on the area around the equator, the Doldrums are caused by solar radiation from the sun. Instead of blowing horizontally, this heating causes the air to warm and climb straight up. As a result, there is little or no wind for weeks at a time.

When a BB male and a Bb female are crossed, 50% BB and 50% Bb genotypes are produced and a 100% black phenotype.

The entire number of genes that an organism receives from its parents makes up its genotype. Alleles, which are pairs of these genes, are found. One gene is dominant and one gene is recessive in each allele.

The dominant gene is always expressed in a cross if it is present. Only when a pair of alleles is made up of two recessive genes does the recessive gene express itself. In this instance, the white fur is subordinate to the black fur. White fur is represented as b, while black fur is represented as B.

We can see that when we cross the BB male and Bb female, we will get a genotype that is 50% BB and 50% Bb, as well as a phenotype that is 100% black fur.

Parents: BB x Bb

Gametes: B, B, and B, b

Offspring: BB, BB, Bb, Bb

The genotypic ratio = 1:1

The phenotypic ratio = 1:0

Genotype probabilities:

P(BB) = 2/4 = 0.5 or 50%

P(Bb) = 2/4 = 0.5 or 50%

Sergeeva-Olga [200]
Absorbing prokaryotic cells. This theory is called the endosymbiotic theory.
The early prokaryotic cells that were absorbed likely evolved into mitochondria and chloroplasts, membrane-bound organelles with their own DNA in single chromosomes and their own ribosomes.
