The Sun is the primary source of energy that drives all the biogeochemical cycles on Earth. Which statement best describes how t

he Sun’s energy powers the water cycle?
1.Plants require energy from the Sun to perform photosynthesis.

2.The Sun's heat reflects off ice sheets near the polar caps, reducing the overall temperature of Earth.

3.Heat from the Sun drives evaporation, turning water on Earth's surface into water vapor.

4.Energy from the Sun provides the warmth necessary for cold-blooded animals to survive.

Answer:

3. Heat from the Sun drives evaporation, turning water on Earth's surface into water vapor.

Explanation:

Water cycle starts with evaporation of water from water bodies which includes transition of water into water vapor by heat of sunlight. The water vapor rises up in the sky and gets condensed to form clouds. This is followed by precipitation and collection of water into the water bodies again through surface run off. Hence, the very first step of water cycle, that is, evaporation is driven by energy from Sun.

This allows for more cellular energy to be produced, and more metabolic actions to be undertaken. This is the major aspect of cell respiration.</span>

"Which mode of inheritance produces heterozygotes with phenotypes that differ from either homozygote but typically more closely
lyudmila [28]

Which mode of inheritance produces heterozygotes with phenotypes that differ from either homozygote but typically more closely resembles one homozygous phenotype than the other?"

A) complete dominance

B) incomplete dominance

C) codominance

D) epistasis

E) incomplete penetrance

Answer:

B) incomplete dominance

Explanation:

Incomplete dominance occurs when the dominant allele of a gene is not able to mask the expression of the recessive allele completely. This results in the expression of a phenotype in the heterozygous genotypes that differ from both homozygous genotypes. However, the phenotype of the heterozygote is closer to one of the homozygous genotypes.

For example, the petal color in four o'clock plant is controlled by a gene with two alleles R and r. Here, the "R" allele can not produce enough pigment in heterozygous conditions to completely mask the expression of the "r" allele and the phenotype of the "Rr" plant is "pink". On the other hand, the phenotype of "RR" plant is red while that of the "rr" plant is "white".
