Answer:

BB - Dark brown color - (1/4)

Bb - light tan (due to incomplete dominance) - (2/4 or 1/2)

bb - white color - (1/4)

Explanation:

Let the allele for dark brown pigment be represented by "B"

And the let allele for white (no pigment) be represented by "b"

Due to incomplete dominance, the phenotype of heterozygous species would be "light tan"

Genotype of heterozygous female - Bb

Genotype of heterozygous male - Bb

Bb * Bb

BB, Bb, Bb, bb

BB - Dark brown color - (1/4)

Bb - light tan (due to incomplete dominance) - (2/4 or 1/2)

bb - white color - (1/4)

zhuklara [117]

Answer:

Plants produce oxygen gas and glucose molecule during the process of photosynthesis by absorbing radiation of the sun.

Explanation:

Photosynthesis is a process in which glucose and oxygen are produced by the combination of carbondioxide and water in the presence of sunlight. Carbondioxode is taken in the leaves through stomata and water is absorbed by the plant from the soil. When these two substances combine in the presence of sunlight produces glucose and oxygen.

It is A I think the insect lived first and so it is under because it is under a different layer so if they were around at the same time and the fish was just under water it would be in the same layer of rock but because it is different rock it was not around at the same time
