Insecticide resistance is the development by insects of resistance to insecticides. It is the ability an insect can either get naturally or by mutations to withstand the effects of insecticides aka becoming resistant.
Explanation:
Xenopus laevis is allotetraploid: it has 2 sets of homologous chromosomes originally from one species and 2 sets of homologous chromosomes originally from another species, making a total of 4 sets of chromosomes. During meiosis, every chromosome has another homologous one with which it can pair, producing viable gametes that have the complete genetic information of the species.
Mules, however, are allodiploid: they have one set of chromosomes from a donkey and another set from a horse, making a total of 2 sets of chromosmes. But those two sets are not homologous, so during meiosis the chromosomes can't pair and the gametes will have errors that make them inviable, making mules sterile
Answer:
There are two main factors that make ocean water more or less dense than about 1027 kg/m3: the temperature of the water and the salinity of the water. Ocean water gets more dense as temperature goes down. So, the colder the water, the more dense it is. Increasing salinity also increases the density of sea water.

Answer:
C. 1/4
Explanation:
Let's assume that the allele for the spotted coat is "S" and the one for the even coat is "s". The allele "L" gives short horns while the recessive allele "l" imparts long horns. The genotype of the cattle heterozygous for both traits would be SsLl. A cross between two heterozygous cattle would produce progeny in following phenotype ratio=
9 spotted coat and short horns: 3 even coat and short horns: 3 spotted coat and long horns: 1 even coat and long horns.
Therefore, the proportion of the progeny with long horns = 4/16= 1/4
