Answer:

Frequency of individuals with recessive trait(dd)= 71.4 %

Explanation:

Please see the attached.

In the image it is clear that there are total 26 mouse out of which 6 are dark colored.

Since dark color allele is dominant, these  6 dark colored mouse will have genotype either  DD or Dd

The individuals with genotype "dd" will be of light color.

Number of light colored mouse = 21 -6 = 15

Frequency of individuals with recessive trait(dd)

= \frac{15}{21} * 100\\

= 71.4 %

1. The burning of fossil fuels contributes to all of the following ecological problems except for:
kirill115 [55]

The burning of fossil fuels does not contribute to ozone layer depletion.

The burning of fossil fuels leads to the release of gases such as oxides of nitrogen, sulfur, and carbon as well as particulate matter such as smoke, ashes, etc.

The oxides released from fossil fuel burning can cause global warming (carbon dioxide), acid rain (SO2), and air pollution (particulate matter).

Ozone layer depletion is caused by pollutants such as halocarbons, solvents, etc.

Match the description on the right with the force on the left.
Marat540 [252]

Magnetic force - B.

Electrical force - A.

Gravitational force - D.

Contact force - C.

<h3><u>Explanation:</u></h3>

When a charge moves about its path, it produces a magnetic force around it. This magnetic field is perpendicular to the axis of movement of the charge and is directly proportional to the amount of charge, speed of the charge, and inversely proportional to distance between the charge and the point of measurement. Michael Faraday discovered this phenomenon.

Electrical force of attraction or repulsion is seen between the two charged bodies, or one charged body and one uncharged body which can induce charge to the uncharged body. The attraction or repulsion between the charged bodies are seen if the bodies are close enough, and this is called electrical force.

The gravitational force is also a non contact force that is seen between two bodies which is always attractive in nature and is seen between any two bodies.

A contact force like friction is a type of force that takes place only when two bodies are in contact with each other.
