Biologists in louisiana have become concerned about cadmium levels in the water near new orleans and the probability that frogs

will die out. They performed an experiment on bullfrog tadpoles to determine how toxic cadmium is to bullfrogs. Suppose a small river with a population of 10,000 frogs becomes polluted with cadmium to a level of 3 mg per gallon per day. About how many bullfrogs would be expected to die?

The correct answer is 3,000 bullfrogs.

The survival rate of bullfrogs increases as the amount of Cadmium decreases. This will happen because cadmium is a ubiquitous pollutant in aquatic environments. Cadmiun can alter organismal physiology and ecology affecting their growth and development.

Answer: 3,000

Explanation: about 3,000

The graph reveals that about 70% of frogs will survive this dose and 30% will die. 10,000 frogs - 3,000 (30%) = 7,000 survivors.

The punnet square below represents the result of the cross between two tall pea plants.
erma4kov [3.2K]

Genotype is 1:2:1 (1 Homozygous tall, 2 heterozygous tall, 1 homozygous short)

Phenotype ratio is 3:1

The heterozygous Tt and recessive tt could produce short pea plants if they were crossed.

Explanation:

Genotype is the alleles present for a particular gene. In the Punnett square we can see there will be three tall pea plants and one short pea plant but they can be either homozygous or heterozygous.

While phenotype is the exhibited trait by particular allele that is 3 tall pea plants and one small pea plant.

If Tt and tt are crossed 50 per cent chances of short pea plant is there.
