Answer:

°C. They must both be heterozygous.

Explanation: For a brown eyes parents to give birth to a blue eyes offspring it means the both parents are heterozygous.

Since D is for dominant allele and

d is for recessive allele

DD is for Homozygous individual (i.e) dominant gene

Dd is for heterozygous individual

dd is for homozygous recessive individual

Dd ×Dd- parents

DD Dd Dd dd - offsrings 1:2:1

DD- 1 brown eye homozygous offspring

Dd- 2 brown eye heterozygous offspring

dd- 1 blue eye homozygous individual

A cross between two heterozygous individual will lead to segregation of genes in the ratio 1:2:1 i.e 3 brown and 1 blue eye individual.

Assoli18 [71]

Agriculture is an activity that requires a lot of fresh water.

This is because agricultural crops need large amounts of water to grow and remain productive.
In a situation of large-scale agricultural production, this need for water is even greater, causing producers to use large quantities of water that is necessary for the consumption of the population.

<h3>Give the detailed explanation?</h3>

In order to conserve fresh water and keep it at high quality levels to be used both in agriculture and for human consumption, it is necessary that agricultural producers allow the maintenance of riparian forests, use more biodegradable pesticides or with low impact on nature and pay attention to irrigation equipment to avoid waste.
