The genetic base of the shape of orchid is very complex.
Mendelian traits are described as simple traits determined by one gene. The different alleles of the gene contribute to the difference in the trait. This is true for some traits in plants, animals including humans and other organisms, but not for the shape of orchids.
The shape of orchid flowers is determined by the ABCDE group of genes that are responsible for the body plan in plants. These genes are the equivalent of HOX genes of animals.
The protein products of different genes of the ABCDE group interact with each other in complex ways creating different shapes of orchids.
Answer:
One choice should be “exponential growth curve”, choose that. If you could post a pic of the remaining options, I'll try and solve it for you further.
ANSWER:
(A) project be stopped to protect the ivory-billed woodpecker and all the other species of plants and animals.
EXPLANATION:
Option A (project be stopped to protect the ivory-billed woodpecker and all the other species of plants and animals) is most appropriate for a biocentric species egalitarian, because it provides equal rights and support for all forms of life without being baised on favoring sentient animals (animals who can feel and can be emotional).
NOTE: Species egalitarianism is the philosophic view that all living things have the same moral right and support and all forms of life have intrinsic value.
The answer is the first option- "A-T"
