Answer:
The correct answer is - 2 genes.
Explanation:
The number of genes involved in the coloration of the strain of cereal grain, could be either dark tan, medium-dark tan, medium tan, light tan, or cream-colored if all F1 are medium tan when crossed a dark tan crossed with cream-colored, can be calculated as follow:
suppose there are only two gene - TT dominant over tt and CC dominant over cc
then the cross would be - RRCC - rrcc
gametes - RC and rc
Cross F1: RrCc
Self cross in F2:
offspring by Punnet cross are:
RRCC -->1/16
RRCc, RrCC .---> 4/16
RrCc, RRcc, rrCC--->6/16
rrCc, Rrcc--->4/16
rrcc ----> 1/16
thus, the correct answer is 2 genes
Answer: Option A.
The hypothalamus is the brain structure responsiblre for regulating thirst, hunger, temperature and sexual behaviour.
Explanation:
Hypothalamus is a part of brain structures located at the floor of the third ventricle below the thalamus and its control the autonomic system.
It controls hunger, thirst, temperature, fatigue, sleep and sexual behaviour . Hypothalamus secretes the anti diuretic hormones which increases the level of water absorbed into the blood by the kidneys and corticotropin releasing hormone which regulate immune system.
Answer:
Natural selection
Explanation:
Natural populations have variations. Organisms of a population have various genetic traits. Some of these genetic variations make the organisms better suited to the prevailing environmental conditions. These organisms are more likely to produce more progeny. Over generations, the frequency of the beneficial genetic traits increases in the population due to the higher reproductive success of the organisms with these genetic traits.
This process of differential fitness of organisms of a population where the organisms with adaptive genetic traits have survival and reproductive benefits is called natural selection.
Answer:
B
Explanation:
The reactants of photosynthesis are CO2 and H2O and the products are C6H12O2 and O2
the answer is not exact, but it is the closest to the actual equation
Q1:
Answer:
Studies have reported that due to predation of pythons on rabbits, the population of other predators is badly affected.
Bobcats are a natural predator of rabbits thus they come in a competition with pythons for food. As pythons are more powerful so they target rabbits more easily than Bobcats. The population of Bobcats has been declined by 90% or more due to the establishment of pythons in the Everglades.
<em>Alligator mississippiensis </em>or American alligators are also abundant in Everglades and just like Bobcats they compete with pythons for their food. They can even kill pythons if pythons are smaller in size than them, but python will kill alligator if he is of smaller size. Although rabbits are food for both alligator and Python but Alligator is a key stone specie and it has very important ecological role, because it digs holes in land that retain water upon rainfall. These water hole provide water in the extreme dry weather and help in survival of other small specie like insects and birds.
So, we can expect the population of Alligator, Bob cats and other small insects and birds to decline rapidly if Python population kept on increasing with same speed.

Q2:
Answer:
There is no doubt that Pythons pose serious threat for both humans as well as survival of other organisms like Alligators and birds. However, I donot think that “Python challenge” is a reasonable way to kill or remove Pythons. Because It can threat the lives of many individuals who take part in competition, although they are trained but still they are nor professionals and get training of only few weeks so it is not safe competition.
There should be some strategy of introducing natural predators like Brown beers, Cougars and Alligators which can kill python naturally without staking the life of humans at risk.
Hope it helps!
