Answer:Wildebeest are considered keystone species because their presence has myriad effects on the ecosystem, unlike those of any other species. Wildebeest are the "lawnmowers" of the Serengeti grassland. They keep grass short which in turn reduces the frequency of fires.
Answer:
This question lacks options, the options are:
A. Only recessive alleles are inherited from homozygous parents.
B. Dominant alleles grow weaker as they are passed from parents to offspring.
C. Only the parent with a dominant allele can pass that allele to offspring in sexual reproduction.
D. A heterozygous parent has an equal chance of passing either the dominant allele or the recessive allele to offspring.
The answer is D
Explanation:
This question involves a single gene coding for hair length in dogs. The allele for short hair (S) is dominant over the allele for long hair (s). This means that allele 'S' will always mask the phenotypic expression of allele 's' in a heterozygous state.
According to the question, two heterozygous dogs (Ss) were crossed to produce 6 shortt-haired offsprings and 2 long-haired offsprings. An heterozygous organism is that which contains two different alleles for a particular gene i.e. a combination of dominant and recessive alleles.
Based on this, during meiosis or gamete formation, an heterozygous dog (Ss) will produce gametes with the short hair allele (S) and long hair allele (s) in equal proportion i.e. 50-50. When the two gametes containing the recessive alleles (s) produced by each heterozygous parent fuses, an offspring with a recessive phenotype (long hair, ss) is produced.
Hence, a long-hair
phenotype can appear in the offspring of two short-haired dogs because a heterozygous parent has equal chance of passing either the dominant or recessive allele to the offspring.
Answer:
D. Type in human immune system + HIV effects.
Explanation:
Since Angela is focusing more on the human immune system and the effects of HIV could have on it, the keywords combination that would produce the most relevant search result has to contain human, immune system and HIV effects.
Option A has human, body systems and HIV, immune is absent.
Option B contains immune system and human, no HIV effects.
Option C contains HIV and immune system, no human.
All the options are lacking in some ways and will not produce the most relevant search results.
The correct option is D. It has all the necessary keywords.
Answer:
when you grow plants, they are obviously identical to there parent plan, for an example a plant that produces offspring. (parent)
