They are turned upside down because there might be condensation on the lid and turning it upside down would prevent it from dripping into the culture medium.

Why have erosion and deposition increased in both of the prairie ecosystems
Ulleksa [173]
Because that ecosystem is covered in rocks and soil fragments. These fragments can be moved by the wind, water or even gravity. 

These fragments can lead towards erosion and deposition. That is why people are trying to plant new grass and trees there so it won't get washed away when the next storm hits.

Hope this helped :)

You have been given a single virgin Drosophila female. You notice that the bristles on her thorax are much shorter than normal.
eimsori [14]

Answer:

B

Explanation:

We never see short bristle males, suggesting some type of lethality. I.e. any males who inherit the mutation die before birth so we don't see the phenotype. This also hints that it could be X-linked.

Females can be short bristled, but males can't, as it is likely lethal. This suggests that having one copy of the short bristle trait without the long bristle trait is lethal (as males as XY and so only have one copy of the trait). The female then must be heterozygous for the short bristle trait (which also explains how in generation F2, long bristle males can be produced, as if she was homozygous males would all be short bristled, and therefore dead, so there would be no males.

Since the first short bristle female is heterozygous, the trait for short bristles must be dominant.

However, since evidence suggests the trait is X-linked, it cannot be autosomal, as suggested in B.
