Hello there kevin i would say The land in a wetlands area is very moist and quite damp. The soil doesn't support really any type of construction very well. For example, the Ihop parking lot in Mississippi collapsed recently and it was found that the restaurant had been built on a wetlands area. So really, when a parking lot is built in a wetlands area, it will probably not work out.

<h2>Answer:</h2>

The correct answer is option B which is rain percolates through the pavement into the ground below, causing cracks in the pavement.

<h3>Explanation:</h3>

Wetlands are areas where the water content is more in the soil of the land than the normal land.
It is usually not perfect hard land, It is the soft place.
When this area is converted into the parking lot. When it rains rainwater makes its way to be absorbed in the land below the parking lot because wetland has high ability to absorb water.
Hence the small pores will be converted to large pores as large amount of water will pass through it.
These large pores will change into cracks in the parking lot.

Can someone answer this pls??

Lunna [17]

Answer:

75% brown, 25% white

Explanation:

This question involves a single gene coding for color in chickens. The allele for brown color (B) is dominant over the allele for white color (b).

According to this question, a brown rooter with genotype 'BB' was crossed with a white hen (bb). The offsprings in the F1 generation will all possess the 'Bb' genotype and be brown colored. However, if these F1 offsprings are self-mated i.e Bb × Bb, the proportion of F2 offsprings will be 1BB, 2Bb, 1bb.

Since BB, Bb and Bb offsprings are Brown in color and bb is white in color, this means that the expected phenotypic appearance of the F2 offsprings will be:

¾ or 75% brown and ¼ or 25% white

How can a microscope be used to determine if a specimen is a living thing?

Bumek [7]

Microscopes are one of the laboratory tools used to maximize the visual acuity of a certain specimen, it maybe a living or non-living organism or object. Thus, microscopes are widely used in these laboratories to increase microscopic observation with entities that cannot be perceived thru the naked eye. However, for scientisits to determine such specimen is a living thing if there's a presence of cell. Cell cannot be viewed via the visual organs alone but with the microscope a living specimen can be discerned with its characteristics such as cellular structure, slight and fidgety movement and other particular details..
