Answer:
The orchids derive nutrients from the association at very young stages of its life cycle while the fungi obtain water and organic matter
Explanation:
As stated in this question, fungi species belonging to the phylum Basidiomycota form mycorrhizal associations with a flowering plant called orchids. This relationship is a mutualistic one because both participants benefit from the relationship.
In this association, the young orchid plant relies on the mycorrhizal fungi's metabolism to get nutrients needed for its development in form of carbohydrates while the fungi in return gets water (from the roots of the plant) and organic matter.
Answer:
1) The alleles for homozygous brown hair will be BB.
2) The alleles for heterozygous brown hair will be Bb
3) Let's make a punnet square to check for the outcomes:
B b
B BB Bb
B BB Bb
4) The results from the punnet square depict that the phenotype of all the children produced will be brown hair.
5) The punnet square depicts that there will be a 50% probability of the child to carry the heterozygous genome (Bb) and there is also 50% probability for the child to carry homozygous dominant genome (BB).
