A gene that affects hair length in dogs has two alleles. The allele for short hair (L) is dominant
Lelechka [254]

Answer:

This question lacks options, the options are:

A. Only recessive alleles are inherited from homozygous parents.

B. Dominant alleles grow weaker as they are passed from parents to offspring.

C. Only the parent with a dominant allele can pass that allele to offspring in sexual reproduction.

D. A heterozygous parent has an equal chance of passing either the dominant allele or the recessive allele to offspring.

The answer is D

Explanation:

This question involves a single gene coding for hair length in dogs. The allele for short hair (S) is dominant over the allele for long hair (s). This means that allele 'S' will always mask the phenotypic expression of allele 's' in a heterozygous state.

According to the question, two heterozygous dogs (Ss) were crossed to produce 6 shortt-haired offsprings and 2 long-haired offsprings. An heterozygous organism is that which contains two different alleles for a particular gene i.e. a combination of dominant and recessive alleles.

Based on this, during meiosis or gamete formation, an heterozygous dog (Ss) will produce gametes with the short hair allele (S) and long hair allele (s) in equal proportion i.e. 50-50. When the two gametes containing the recessive alleles (s) produced by each heterozygous parent fuses, an offspring with a recessive phenotype (long hair, ss) is produced.

Hence, a long-hair

phenotype can appear in the offspring of two short-haired dogs because a heterozygous parent has equal chance of passing either the dominant or recessive allele to the offspring.

The ocean is divided into distinct zones of marine life. Which three factors are
joja [24]

Answer:

Three factors are used.

The availability  of sunlight.

The distance from shore and

The  water depth.

Explanation:

<u>Availability of Sunlight </u>

The photic zone is the upper part of the ocean  into which sunlight penetrates.

<u>Distance from Shore </u>

The intertidal zone is the strip of land where the  land and ocean meet and overlap, or the zone  between high and low tides.

The neritic zone is the marine-life zone that  extends from the low-tide line out to the shelf  break.

The oceanic zone is the marine-life zone  beyond the continental shelf.

<u>Water Depth</u>

The pelagic zone is open zone of any depth.  Animals in this zone swim or float freely.

The benthic zone is the marine-life zone that  includes any sea-bottom surface regardless of  its distance from shore.

The abyssal zone is a subdivision of the benthic  zone characterized by extremely high pressures,  low temperatures, low oxygen, few nutrients,  and no sunlight

In your own words, what is a trophic cascade?
Alenkasestr [34]

Answer:

A trophic cascade is a side-effect when a trophic level (species) of the ecosystem is reduced or removed. Their ecological species interactions keep entire ecosystems balanced. Hence, suppressing their numbers or changing their behavior due to predation risk, results in an ecological imbalance or a trophic cascade.
