Deep water rises along the coast of Peru to replace surface water carried away from the coast by strong winds. Why is upwelling

important?

Upwelling is important to mix the nutrients that are present deep inside the water.Updewelling is a phenomenon in which the deeper water rises and gets mixed to the surface water to promote the growth of phytoplanktons and seaweeds as the water that is present deep inside is rich in nutrients.These phytoplanktons serve as as source  of energy for large fishes and other aquatic animals. As these large animals are higher in population and are an important part of food chain and they also provide food to different marine mammals ,sea birds.The deep water infuses  with costal water so to serve as a fuel for high productivity of marine ecosystem.

Blue flower is dominant to yellow flower. Tall plant is dominant to short. Cross BbTt * BbTt. What precenetage of the offsprings
shtirl [24]

Answer:

The correct answer would be - 25%.

Explanation:

It is given that the Blue flower is dominant over the yellow flower which means Blue is represented by allele B here and allele b for yellow and Bb is a heterozygous case with a blue phenotypic character. Similarly, the Tall plant is dominant over short and represented by T and t respectively.

BbTt is a heterozygous condition and a cross with itself will produce :

Gametes: BT Bt bT and bt

          BT       Bt       bT       bt

BT     BBTT   BBTt   BbTT   BbTt

Bt      BBTt    BBtt    BbTt   Bbtt

bT     BbTT   BbTt    bbTT   bbTt

bt      BbTt     Bbtt    bbTt     bbtt

Here 4 out of 16 offspring are heterozygous for both traits represented by bold alphabets. Therefore the correct answer is 25%

Imagine there was no tilt to the earths axis and earths orbit was circular
Shkiper50 [21]

Answer:

If the Earth was not tilted on its axis, there would be no seasons. And humanity would suffer.

Explanation:

When a Mars-size object collided with Earth 4.5 billion years ago, it knocked off a chunk that would become the moon. It also tilted Earth sideways a bit, so that our planet now orbits the sun on a slant.

Hope this helps!

Imagine that five hypothetical genes are arranged on a chromosome in the following order: G--H--I--J--K. Which two genes are mos
andrezito [222]

Answer:

G and K

Explanation:

Crossing-over is a genetic phenomenon that occurs in meiosis, specifically, Prophase I. It is when chromosomal segment (genes) are exchanged between non-sister chromatids of homologous chromosomes. Crossing-over occurs only to genes that are UNLINKED i.e. genes located on different chromosomes or far apart on the same chromosome.

This unlinked genes are said to have the highest RECOMBINATION FREQUENCY. Crossing-over allows genes on the same chromosome but far apart from each other, assort independently, which allows alleles to be recombined on the same chromosome. This phenomenon does not occur to genes that are close on the same chromosome as they will be inherited together as a unit.

In this case, G and K are the farthest apart, hence, they will have the highest RECOMBINATION FREQUENCY i.e. the likelihood for homologous crossing-over to take place during meiosis.

What would be the independent variable in the following hypothesis?
Tamiku [17]
The independent variable in the hypothesis of an observed increased in sea turtle sickness once an increase in red tide can be seen would be the increase of red tide. 

The reason for this is that red tide increases or decreases will happen independently of the amount of sea turtle sickness - therefore increasing sea turtle sickness will be dependent on the first variable. (independent one).
