Biology

Answer:

It means one trait does not influence the expression of the other. Example is given in the explanation section.

Explanation:

A trait is the phenotypic characteristics an organism possesses. It is determined and controlled by genes. According to Mendel, an organism receives two forms of every gene called ALLELE. Each allele of a gene encodes a different trait.

Mendel, in his law of independent assortment stated that the inheritance of a trait encoded by the alleles of one gene does not influence the inheritance of another trait encoded by the alleles of another gene. A trait is said to be independent of another if it doesn't influence the expression of the other trait.

An example is the seed colour and seed shape trait in a plant. The seed colour trait is encoded by a certain gene and its expression and inheritance is independent of the seed shape trait encoded by another gene.

Climate characterized by mild temperatures is ______. Question 4 options: tropical humid dense temperate
Pachacha [2.7K]

The correct answer is - temperate.

The temperate climates can simply be described as climates with milder temperatures. These climates have changes of seasons, four of them, spring, summer, autumn, and winter. The springs and autumns tend to have mild temperatures, the summers are warm, and the winters are cold, but the highest and lowest temperatures do not come close to the extremely high temperatures in the tropical zone, or extremely low temperatures in the high latitude zones. So these climates have temperatures that are in between the extremes of the low and high altitudes, thus they are milder climates.
