Which of the following performs the phosphorus cycle A) Autotrophs C) Carnivore B)Heterotrophs D) Herbivore

Biology
1 answer:
Evgen [1.6K]4 years ago
8 0

Answer:

The autotrophs are the ones that perform the phosphorus cycle.

Explanation:

A is correct because the autotrophs are the organisms that are able to consume the inorganic phosphates, use them, and release parts of them in the other spheres, thus contributing to the phosphorus cycle.

B is not correct because the heterotrophs are not organisms that can process inorganic matter and produce their own food, instead, they are dependent on the autotrophs to do that.

C is not correct because the carnivores are not able to consume and process inorganic phosphates, with their food sources being based around the primary and secondary consumers.

D is not correct because the herbivores use the producers (autotrophs) as their food source, and they are not able to process inorganic phosphates on their own.

In leghorn chickens colored feathers are produced by a dominant allele,
Gnesinka [82]
<span> Basically the male will have CC, the hen will have cc, and neither of them will have I. The key thing is that _all_ the chicks are coloured.

The male must have at least 1 C to be coloured, and cannot possess the dominant I. The hen has cc and/or an I to not be coloured.

That one chick is coloured would tell you little - only that the hen couldn't have 2 inhibitor alleles because otherwise the chick would have to have one and it doesn't.

However, for all of many chicks to be coloured, that means that the hen can't have any inhibitor alleles (otherwise around 50% would be white for that reason alone).

So to be colourless, the hen must be cc. However, if the male had only 1 colour allele (ie it was Cc) that would still mean that 50% of the chicks would be Cc (daddy's 'c' and one of mummy's 'c's). 

Hope this helps please award brainly :)

Answer:

The virus will make people vote for whichever candidate they think will slow the spread of virus the most effectively. It may make it harder for people to get to the polls to vote, from fears of catching the virus while in the act of voting.
