Trees produce 2 colored rings per year and so by counting these rings you can have an idea as to how long the tree has lived. With 20 dark-colored rings and 20 light-colored rings, the tree is likely to have stood up for 20 years. I hope this helps.

The likely age of a tree that shows 20 light colored rings, and 20 dark colored rings is 20 years old. Each year of a tree's life is represented by a dark and a light part. The type of life that a tree has had can also be learned by looking at the rings. If rings are not even or concentric you can tell that a tree was leaning, or was growing in a windy area. You can also judge the health of a tree by how the rings are spaced.

he bodies of wild-type fruit flies are colored by dark pigments, but an X-linked recessive mutation can confer a yellow, unpigme
bekas [8.4K]

Answer:

We could feed them with another type of food free of silver salts.

Explanation:

When talking about a phenocopy, we are referring to individuals who genotypically should be expressing a determined phenotype, but due to environmental influence, they express another phenotype. This is a non-inheritable phenotype, so it is not considered a mutation.

If we grow thy flies feeding them another type of food that does not include silver salts, and let them mate and reproduce, they will express the real phenotype, because they will not be influenced by the food. In the following generation, there will be dark individuals carrying the dominant allele, and yellow individuals, with the recessive genotype.
