Triss [41]

Answer:A) Nitrogen

Explanation: nitrogen cycle ensures the movement of nutrients through the biosphere.it ensures that nitrogen is constantly reused and made available.

Nitrogen gas is available in the atmosphere but plants and animals cannot use it in that form.it must be converted to compounds such as ammonia or nitrate.

It is gotten from the atmosphere during rainfalls where it Is broken down and combines with oxygen to from nitrogen peroxide.

Nitrogen can also be fixated into ammonia by saprophytic bacteria.

Also when plants die their body tissues are broken down to form ammonia.ammonia can be oxidized into nitrates and nitrite which plants can use.

Nitrites can be released back into the atmosphere through denitrifying bacteria and the cycle continues.

Complete the Punnett square below by showing the genetic makeup of the parent plats of the cross shown.Be sure to show both gene

aksik [14]

Answer:

The correct answer is -

Parent 1: RW, Parent 2: RR

Explanation:

In the given punnet square there are four offspring and it is a monohybrid cross between parent 1 and parent 2. The four offspring produced in this cross have RR, RR, RW, and RW alleles. By the genotype of the offsprings, it is clear that there are 50 percent pure or true-bred and 50 percent are heterozygous.

Each parent contribute two alleles and these alleles are independently assort in the zygote to form offspring so there must be R, R, R and W allele present in the parent

Parent 2 → R R

Parent 1 ↓ R RR RR (one allele (R) come from each parent in zygote)

W RW RW (one allele (R and W) come from each parent)
