Answer:

Explanation:

Turbidity results from particles and debris suspended or dissolved in water that scatter light making the water appear cloudy or murky.

Numerous human activities have an impact on river turbidity.

1) Construction activities normally strip the land of vegetation. Despite preventative measures, storm water tends to carry sediment off the site and into surrounding streams and rivers, thereby increasing the turbidity. Once the construction is completed, the smooth paved surfaces allow runoff water to gain more energy thus causing the water to become more erosive and carry sediment farther into streams and rivers.

2) Agricultural activities also have a similar effect in that when the land is cleared of native vegetation, the storm water is able to carry sediment away.

Brrunno [24]

What is a gene?

  • According to Mendel something was being stably passed down, unchanged, from parent to offspring through the gametes, over successive generations. He called these things as ‘factors’ now called as genes. Genes, therefore, are the units of inheritance.
  • They contain the information that is required to express a particular trait in an organism.
  • Genes which code for a pair of contrasting traits are known as alleles, i.e., they are slightly different forms of the same gene.
  • There is no ambiguity that the genes are located on the DNA, it is difficult to literally define a gene in terms of DNA sequence.
  • The DNA sequence coding for tRNA or rRNA molecule also defines a gene. A cistron is defined as a segment of DNA coding for a polypeptide, the structural gene in a transcription unit could be said as monocistronic (mostly in eukaryotes) or polycistronic (mostly in bacteria or prokaryotes).

How to solve these questions
malfutka [58]

Answer:

(i) An allele is a variant of a gene, can either be short or tall.

Dominant = the tall allele that "trumps" the short allele. if a dominant and recessive allele is present (heterozygous) then the dominant phenotype will be shown.

(ii) David's eyes are Brown

(iii) Sarah's eyes are blue

(iv) David - B, b

Sarah - b, b

(v) Possible genotypes include Bb and bb. These give the phenotypes of brown eyes or blue eyes.

(vi) The chance for blue eyes is 50% (or 1:1 ratio)

Elena L [17]

Plastics are made from non-renewable and non-biodegradable materials and are difficult to convert to environmentally friendly substances. As a result, the organisms and their habitat are facing danger that might lead to destruction, scarcity of food resources, and even death.
