Consider the following cross:

Nadusha1986 [10]

The question is one of a dihybrid cross.

The picture that I attach below is a punnett cross of the parents (Yy Tt and Yy Tt).

So first you have to separate the two parents into gametes by pairing the alleles ( Yt , YT, yT, yt). Then I crossed then with the punnett square and from that we see that there are two possible off spring that will would possess the genotype Yy TT (shaded gray in the diagram).

Thus the probability that a Yy TT offspring would be 2 out of 16
= $\frac{2}{16}$
= $\frac{1}{8}$
= 12.5 %

Rebekka notices a huge crack in a large boulder in her garden she realizes the crack was caused by Frost wedging place the steps

Elenna [48]

The correct order is:

B. Rain water is stored in rock and seeps into a hairline crack during a rainfall;

E. The temperature falls below 0° Celsius;

D. Rainwater in the rock crack freezes into ice;

C. Because ice occupies more space than water, the ice wedges the crack open:

A. The freeze-thaw cycle continues to deepen the crack until the rock splits into 2 pieces;

The water from the rain gradually manages to weather parts of the rock. As it does, small cracks appear in it. Once there's cracks, the water from the rainfall also starts to store inside the rock. When the colder period of the year comes, and the temperatures fall bellow 0°C, the stored water freezes. The ice starts to spread inside the crack, thus creating pressure inside the rock. As the pressure is becoming bigger and bigger, the rock will eventually crack into two or more pieces.
