Answer and Explanation:

Community ecology is a discipline that studies the organism's communities and the manner in which populations of species interact with each other within a particular habitat. Mark Vellend is an eco-evolutionist that developed a theoretical framework of ecological communities from a unified functional perspective. This theory is based on four forces of evolutionary biology: selection, drift, dispersal and speciation. This theory is used to explain how species interactions including parasitism, competition and predation may influence population fluctuations. On the other hand, this theoretical framework can also be used to understand how colonization, disturbance and habitat suitability components alter the dynamics of interacting species.

When Mendel crossed a true-breeding short plant with a true-breeding tall plant all the offspring were tall. Which term describe
max2010maxim [7]

Hi!


The answer would be: Dominant


<h3>Explanation</h3>

A cross between a true breeding short plant (homozygous for short, suppose tt), and a cross between a true breeding tall plant (homozygous for tallness, suppose TT) would result in all the offspring being heterozygous for the traits, meaning they would each have an allele of shortness (t) and an allele of tallness (T).

Considering the offspring were all tall, we understand that the allele for tallness must have been dominant over the allele for shortness to present itself over it. Hence, the term describing the gene for tallness would be dominant, and the term describing the gene for shortness would be recessive.


Hope this helps!

Food and bloodstains on clothes may contain proteins and fats. Explain how enzymes in biological washing powders act to remove f
Triss [41]

Explanation:

Enzymes would break down the protein and fat molecules when washed as some enzymes are designed to work in that type of atmosphere. Additionally, enzymes are also known as biological catalysts which means they speed up chemical reactions which are taking place. Hence, they help break down molecules that may be in food and in fats.

Hope this helps :)
