Trees help the environment, they make oxygen from carbon dioxide. We should plant more because we are constantly chopping down trees to get wood, and planting more helps to ensure that will we will have trees in the future.
Answer:
From the whole progeny of 544 plants, 34 individuals are expected to have short stems and white flowers.
Explanation:
<u>Available data:</u>
- short stems coded for by recessive allele t
- white flowers coded for by recessive allele p
- T codes for tall stems
- P codes for purple flowers
- Cross between two heterozygous individuals
- Total number of the progeny 544
In a dihybrid cross, it is expected to get a phenotypic ratio of 9:3:3:1
Cross:

- 9/16 T-P-
- 3/16 T-pp
- 3/16 ttP-
- 1/16 ttpp
(<em>Note: The "-" symbol represents either a dominant allele or a recessive one</em>)
From these possible genotypes and phenotypes, we can get their corresponding amount of individuals
16 ---------- 544 individuals
9 ------------X = 306 individuals tall stems and purple flowers T-P-
3-------------X = 102 individuals with tall stems and white flowers T-pp
3------------ X = 102 individuals with short stems and purple flowers ttP-
1 ------------ X = 34 individuals with short stems and white flowers, ttpp
Answer:
The assimilation of the primary consumer is 5000 kcal/m2/yr, option C.
Explanation:
From the information in the question, the Net Production Efficiency, NPE can be calculated using 100Cp/AS.
Where CP is the consumer productivity and AS is the Assimilation.
Therefore, 20 = 100 x 1000/AS
AS = 100,000/20 = 5000 kcal/m2/yr. Option C.
