Explain five ways in which goat production contribute to the economic development of your country​
Olegator [25]

Answer:

Sheep and goats are important livestock species in developing countries. Of the world's 1,614million sheep and 475 million goats, 65% and 95%, respectively, are located in developing countries. Fifty-three percent of the total small-ruminant population in the developing countries is found in Asia, particularly in India and Pakistan, 33% in Africa, and 14% in Latin America (FAO, 1984).

Goats are hardy and well-adapted to harsh climates. Due to their grazing habits and physiological characteristics, they are able to browse on plants that would normally not be eaten by other livestock species. Thus, the presence of goats in mixed species grazing systems can lead to a more efficient use of the natural resource base and add flexibility to the management of livestock. This last characteristic is especially desirable in fragile environments.

Sheep and goats contribute to a broad range of production systems. The most common system throughout the developing countries involve either the extensive system with large herds and/or flocks grazing on arid and semi-arid rangelands or the intensive system with smaller herds and/or flocks kept in confinement, mostly in the humid tropics.

Compared the Mendelian Dominance, how to incomplete dominance and codominance increase the number of phenotypes? Provide an exam
REY [17]

Answer/Explanation:

<h3>Incomplete dominance</h3>

In incomplete dominance, one allele is not entirely dominant over the other, so heterozygotes (organisms with two different alleles for the gene) show an intermediate or blended phenotype.

For example, consider flower colour.

  • If the allele for red flowers (R) was dominant over the allele for white flowers (r), then there are three possible genotypes (RR, Rr, and rr) and two possible phenotypes. (Red (RR and Rr) and white (rr)).
  • However, if the allele for red flowers (R) was incompletely dominant over the allele for white flowers (r), then there are three possible genotypes (RR, Rr, rr), and three possible phenotypes (red (RR), white (rr), and pink (Rr))
<h3>Co-dominance</h3>

In incomplete dominance, two alleles are both expressed, one is not dominant over the other. Therefore, heterozygotes (organisms with two different alleles for the gene) express both traits.

For example, consider flower patterns.

  • If the allele for spots (F) was dominant over the allele for stripes (f), then there are three possible genotypes (FF, Ff, and ff) and two possible phenotypes. (Spots (Ff and ff) and stripes (ff)).
  • However, if the allele for spots (F) was co-dominant to the allele for stripes (f), then there are three possible genotypes (FF, Ff, ff), and three possible phenotypes (spots (FF), stripes (ff), and spots and stripes (Ff))

Suppose the phloem of a seed plant is damaged and does not function properly.
Kisachek [45]

Answer:The might likely die.

Explanation:

Phloem and xylem tissues are the major conducting tissues in plant. Xylem conduct ( transports) water and minerals salts from the soil through the roots to all parts of the plant while phloem conducts manufactured food from the leaves to other parts of the plant.

Now, if the phloem of a seed plant is damaged and not functioning well, the manufactured food will not get to other parts of the plant where it is needed or supposed to be stored.

If the plant is no longer getting these nutrients, its growth and development will be affected. It might lead to the death of the plant.
