Answer:

Secondary succession

Explanation:

When a previously occupied area is re-colonized after a natural disaster or human  activities that wiped out the previous community, then the type of succession is called a secondary succession.   A practical example is abandoned farmland that a farmer left for a period of time and later revisited  for farming afterwards.

Because the pioneer organism( sun-loving plants )  were already on ground it will be fast  for them to populate the area,grasses will   sprout up  too. insects, dentritivores, reptiles will move into the habitats.

After 5years;The habitat is populated by  shrubs, which owns the forest floors.  small pine, oak may soon join.a  stable climax community.

Assuming the community is not interfere with  bigger  dominant trees , e,g the oak developed  and other tree  developed to bigger tree , followed by more  insects, birds, rodents, herbivores and some carnivores, This entire sequence of event may take 50 years, to reach this climax community.

Answer: The combination produced is RRtt.

The combination rrTt does not appear in this punnett square.

Explanation:

As the problem does not indicate more information, I assume that punnett square is made between two RRtt genotypes. It can produce gametes that have the alleles Rt. A gamete is a sexual cell (egg or sperm) that has only one allele of each gene. And, each gamete codes for a different gene. Since here we have two different types of alleles (R and t), it is a dihybrid cross.

<u>A Punnett square is a diagram used to predict the genotypes of a cross or breeding experiment.</u> It is used to determine the genotypes and phenotypes of the offspring. To do it, you have to label the rows with one parent's gametes and label the columns with the other parent's genotype. Then, have each box inherit letters from its row and column, and interpret the results.

Then, the punnett square (shown in the picture) will be between RRtt and RRtt whose gametes can only be Rt, so Rt x Rt will be made.

The result in an offspring which will be 100% RRtt, and there is no rrTt combination here because non of the parents have an r allele, then none of the children can inherit it.

To have an offspring where rrTt genotype is shown, a different genotype must be used, in which both parents must have at least one r allele and one t allele. For example, it could be Rrtt x rrTt.

What happens to biodiversity<br> and ecosystems when the<br> environment changes?
natita [175]
Answer: Loss of biodiversity appears to affect ecosystems as much as climate change, pollution and other major forms of environmental stress, according to results of a new study by an international research team. ... Studies over the last two decades demonstrated that more biologically diverse ecosystems are more productive.hope this helps:)!

This tutorial will take you step by step through the question. Individuals with the genotypes Aa Bb CC Dd and Aa bb Cc Dd are cr
Mrac [35]

Answer:

The correct answer is -

a) 1/16

b) 1/64

c) 1/32

Explanation:

According to the law of independent assortment, each allele of a particular gene has equal chances of getting inherited into the gametes.

In a Mendelian cross of Aa x Aa would give;

AA = 1/4,

Aa = 2/4 and

aa = 1/4

The result of the cross between AaBb x AaBb would be 1/16 due to the fact that probability is still the same AA = 1/4, BB = 1/4 therefore, AABB = 1/16 = 1/4× 1/4.

Now based on this crossing the following:

AaBbCCDd x AabbCcDd.

Take each allele as individual

Aa x Aa would give; AA = 1/4, Aa = 2/4 and aa = 1/4

Bb x bb would give; BB = 1/2, bb = 1/2

CC x Cc would give; CC = 1/2, Cc = 1/2

Dd x Dd would give; DD = 1/4, Dd = 2/4 and dd = 1/4

Then the probability of progeny of the following would be:

a) the probability of AaBbCcDd = 2/4 x 1/2 x 1/2 x 2/4 = 1/16

b) the probability of aabbCCdd = 1/4 x 1/2 x 1/2 x 1/4 = 1/64

c) the probability of AabbCcDD = 2/4 x 1/2 x 1/2 x 1/4 = 1/32
