Answer:

Explanation:Sedimentary rocks can contain fossils because, unlike most igneous and metamorphic rocks, they form at temperatures and pressures that do not destroy fossil remains.

Answer:

ATP and NADPH

Explanation:

Photosynthesis starts out using the energy from sunlight to get things started, but it ends with the dark reactions, which don't need sunshine to complete sugar production. In the Calvin cycle, ATP and NADPH from the light reactions are used to produce sugars.

So, the correct option is, 'ATP and NADPH'.

Answer:

The parent's genotypes are:

Ddpp - tall, white parent

ddPp - dwarf, purple parent.

Explanation:

This question involves two different genes coding for height and flower color in pea plants. The alleles for tallness (D) and purple color (P) are dominant over the alleles for dwarfness (d) and white color (p) respectively.

According to this question, a tall plant with white flowers is crossed with a dwarf plant with purple flowers to produce the following proportion of offsprings: 1/4 tall purple, 1/4 tall white, 1/4 dwarf purple, and 1/4 dwarf white.

Since some of the offsprings contain recessive alleles for both or either genes, the dominant traits of the parent is controlled by an heterozygous genotype. This means that the tall plant with white flowers has a genotype: Ddpp while the dwarf plant with purple flowers has the genotype: ddPp. In a cross between Ddpp × ddPp, 1/4 of each combination of alleles is produced in the offsprings (see punnet square in the attachment).
