What would happen if rats was eliminated from the environment

Biology

Rats account for a decent amount of biomass globally.  They are intermediate predators, eating a lot but also being eaten.  If they went extinct, they would stop eating many insects and seeds / fruits -- the former would gain significantly in population, and the latter would lose some of their pollination.  Both factors would harm the viability of at least some species of plants, by adding to plant eaters (insects) and reducing plant reproduction.  Rats' predators would also suffer if they went extinct.  The primary predators are birds of prey, such as hawks and owls.  However, other animals such as skunks, foxes, weasels, coyotes, and even wolves eat rats.  For predators in marginal environments, the loss of such a food source could drive them out of a habitat area.

Answer:

Wind

Explanation:

Small

White of light colors

Produces a lot of pollen

Inconspicuous or indistinct

The reason behan the reason behind that is that they don't need to attract attention, they just need the wind to get rid of the flower and thus achieve propagation.

Đem giao phấn giữa hai cây bố mẹ đều TC thì được F1 xuất hiện một khiểu hình . Tiếp tục cho F1 tự giao phối với nhau thì thu đượ
seropon [69]

Answer:

Đưa về tỉ lệ kiểu hình ta được:

F1 x F1 => F2:

\frac{711}{79}

cây cao, quả đỏ:

\frac{240}{79}

cây cao, quả xanh:

\frac{238}{79}

cây thấp, quả đỏ:

\frac{79}{79}

cây thấp, quả xanh.

Explanation:

<=> 9 cây cao, quả đỏ: 3 cây cao, quả xanh: 3 cây thấp, quả đỏ: 1 cây thấp, quả xanh.

Xét từng cặp tính trạng:

* Cặp tính trạng chiều cao:

Cao: Thấp = 3:1 => tính trạng thân cao trội hoàn toàn so với thân thấp.

* Cặp tính trạng màu sắc quả:

Đỏ: Xanh = 3:1 => tính trạng quả đỏ trội hoàn toàn so với quả xanh.

Qui ước gen:

A: thân cao                     a: thân thấp

B: quả đỏ                        b: quả xanh

Lấy tích cả 2 cặp tính trạng: (3 cao: 1 thấp)(3 đỏ: 1 xanh) = 9 cao, đỏ: 3 cao, xanh: 3 thấp, đỏ: 1 thấp, xanh => tỉ lệ bằng với tỉ lệ đề bài => 2 cặp gen qui định 2 cặp tính trạng di truyền theo qui luật phân li độc lập.

Suy ra kiểu gen:

- Ở cặp tính trạng chiều cao có tỉ lệ kiểu hình 3 thân cao: 1 thân thấp => bố mẹ F1 phải cho 2 giao tử và mang gen a.

=> F1 x F1 = Aa x Aa. (1)

- - Ở cặp tính trạng màu sắc quả có tỉ lệ kiểu hình 3 quả đỏ: 1 quả xanh => bố mẹ F1 phải cho 2 giao tử và mang gen b.

=> F1 x F1 = Bb x Bb (2).

Từ (1) và (2) => Bố mẹ F1 phải có kiểu gen AaBb x AaBb.

Vì đem lai 2 bố mẹ thuần chủng nên ta sẽ có 2 trường hợp.

Trường hợp 1:

P: AABB x aabb

G: AB       ; ab

F1: 100% AaBb.

Trường hợp 2:

P: AAbb x aaBB

G: Ab     ;  aB

F1: 100% AaBb
