Answer:

Genotype: Bb (heterozygous)

Phenotype: brown fur

Explanation:

Since allele B is dominant to allele b, as long as genotype has allele B in it, its effect of phenotype will be expressed instead, regardless of whether allele b is present.

As mouse genotype is stated as Bb, on the chromosome from its parents, allele B comes from one parent while allele b is inherited from the other parent.

Phenotype is the expressed trait. In this case, as genotype has allele B, the phenotype will be brown fur as its effect is expressed.

The carrying capacity of the environment for a species is determined by Question 5 options: the reproductive rate of the organis
muminat

Complete Question:

The carrying capacity of the environment for a species is determined by:

options:

(a) the reproductive rate of the organism.

(b) the number of organisms of that species.

(c) the state and national wildlife laws pertaining to that species.

(d) the age distribution of that species.

(e) the limited availability of renewable resources in the environment and the environmental resistance to the biotic potential of the organism.

Answer: (e) the limited availability of renewable resources in the environment and the environmental resistance to the biotic potential of the organism.

Explanation: The carrying capacity refers to the highest number of the species that the environment can cater for, in terms of food, space and other necessities that supports life.

Thus, the available of renewable resources (i.e resources that can be reused after consumption e.g water) in the environment, plays as a determinant of the highest number of individuals an environment can support (carrying capacity).

Furthermore, environmental resistance to the biotic potential of the organism, is also a determinant of the carrying capacity of organisms inhabiting that particular environment.
