Why do melting ice caps make Earth warmer?

The correct answer is C. Albedo decreases.

When the albedo is lower, more radiation from the Sun gets absorbed by the planet resulting in rise of temperature. When the snow covered area warms up and melts, the albedo goes down and more sunlight is absorbed in that area and the temperatures increase.

Westkost [7]

Answer:

35%

Explanation:

If two genes are 30 map units apart, 30% of the produced gametes will be recombinant.

A mating between an individual homozygous dominant for both traits (AB/AB) and one homozygous recessive for both traits (ab/ab) is conducted.

The F1 will be heterozygous for both genes: AB/ab.

The F1 progeny is then test-crossed to a homozygous recessive individual:

<h3>AB/ab X ab/ab</h3>

<u>The possible offspring will be:</u>

  • Parental (70%): AB/ab and ab/ab
  • Recombinant (30%): Ab/ab and aB/ab

Since 30% of all the gametes produced by the F1 individual will be recombinant, 70% will be parental. As there are two types of parental gametes, each of them will have a frequency of 35%.

<u>The offspring that will have a dominant phenotype for both traits has the genotype AB/ab with a proportion of 35%.</u>
