The scientist who refuses to consider new evidence, assuming he or she is not biased or incompetent could do it because if there is a big amount of evidence indicating otherwise, this one new piece of evidence is unlikely and they prefer to wait for more evidence or for analysis of whether this current evidence is not false.

thus this scientist is being skeptical (practicing skepticism) by ignoring this new evidence.

Skepticism is based off of invalid data or an experimental error, but in this case the scientist is being biased.

Why is agriculture in grasslands more productive than agriculture in rainforests? (Site 1)
Allisa [31]

Answer:

Soils in grasslands have a deep A horizon from the accumulation of organic material that dies back every year. This is what makes these soils so good for agriculture. In tropical rain forests the A horizon is very shallow because of rapid decomposition of dead material and leaching due to heavy rainfall

I need help with the image (phenotypes and genotypes).
Flauer [41]

Answer:

See the answer below

Explanation:

1. <u>Only one phenotype</u> is present in the F1 generation offspring. Since tallness was dominant over shortness, all the offspring in the F1 generation appeared tall.

2. <u>Two phenotypes </u>are present in the F2 generation - 9 tall and 3 short. The short trait reappeared at the F2 generation.

3. The genotype of the F1 offspring would be heterozygous. Assuming the purebred tall is AA and the purebred short is aa:

     AA   x   aa

  Aa   Aa   Aa   Aa

All the F1 offspring will appear tall and their genotypes would be heterozygous.

4. Assuming that the allele for height is denoted with A (a), <u>the genotype of the purebred tall plant would be AA. </u>

5. In a similia vein, <u>the genotype of the purebred short plant would be aa. </u>
