<h2>Two pieces of information </h2>

Sonar is an instrument which is used to search for things which are underwater. It is also used to find the depth of water by giving out ultrasonic vibrations into the water. The time which the vibrations take to return assists to find the distance of the reflecting surface.

The correct answer is:

• velocity of the wave and  

• the return time of the wave.

Echo sound is the method for determination the water depth, based on transmitting sound waves into water. Two things that are recorded are the time interval between emission and return of a pulse and the speed of sound in water at the time.

Juli2301 [7.4K]

Answer:

The F1 progeny is completely heterozygous for the <em>loci</em> of interest since they were obtained by mating between two pure-breeding plant lines. In the next generation, the backcross progeny will have homo-zygous individuals and therefore they will be more variable, resulting from meiosis in F1 hybrids

Explanation:

An F1 resulting from the cross between two pure-breeding plant lines will produce all hybrid individuals, all of them genetically (and phenotypically) identical. Meiosis in F1 hybrids is well known to produce homo-zygous genotypes and thus increases genetic diversity in progeny. For instance, for a single <em>locus</em>, the expected ratio of genotypes obtained from crossing two heterozygous parents is 1:2:1, i.e., one homo-zigous dominant individual, two heterozygous individuals (genetically identical to the parents) and one homo-zygous recessive individual; while the expected phenotypic ratio is 3:1 (i.e., 3 dominant expressing: 1 recessive expressing​).

In mendel’s peas, plants homozygous for the recessive allele d are dwarfs. the dominant allele d determines the normal tall phen
Zolol [24]
So, recessive allele 'd' are dwarfs. 
The dominant allele is 'D' determines tall. 
All you have to do is try to cross the alleles together to get either a homozygous or heterozygous remain. So, you should be able to get Dd or DD.
