Answer:

250.

Explanation:

A test cross would cross the genotype AaBb with homozygous recessive genotype aabb. The cross between AaBB x aabb would produce progeny in 1:1:1:1 ratio. So, the proportion of the progeny expressing both dominant traits (AaBb) is 1/4.

Therefore, out of the total 1000 offspring, 1/4 x 1000= 250 would express the dominant phenotype for both A and B genes.

What role does the animals play in primary succession?

Answer:

The first inhabitants are lichens or plants—those that can survive in such an environment. Over hundreds of years these “pioneer species” convert the rock into soil that can support simple plants such as grasses. These grasses further modify the soil, which is then colonized by other types of plants.
