What type of interaction is taking place when a turtle buries itself in the soil to stay cool?
Dennis_Churaev [7]

Answer:

Temperature Regulation Sometimes, a turtle just wants to be comfortable, and will retreat underground if his environment becomes too hot or too cold for comfort. In the winter, this act is the equivalent of covering up with a blanket, and in the summer, it's the turtle's form of air conditioning.

The table shows the minimum pH that some common freshwater organisms can survive in water. Which organism would be MOST sensitiv
JulijaS [17]

The correct answer is option B- Clams

It is very clear how acid rain is affecting our ecosystem. Plants, animals and other living organisms are effected including their habitat.  

When acid rain enters soil, it leaches aluminium from soil particles and mixes it with soil. Aluminium level in water intoxicates the water content which is critical for the survival of water animals.  

The critical PH level for clams is 6.

In a hypothetical breed of dogs, coat color is controlled by two genes. There are six different coat colors in this breed: black
Andru [333]

The correct statements are C and F.  

There are two elementary types of pigments, which are responsible for the color of the coat, that is, phaeomelanin and eumelanin. Eumelanin is basically a black pigment and cells produced by it are responsible for a black dog coat color. However, there are genes that result in changes in eumelanin to produce brown, gray, or dusty pale brown coat color. The genes responsible for this change leads to the modifications in the creation of the eumelanin in the cells.  

Due to this reason, dusty pale brown and gray dogs are considered as dilutes. Eumelanin can also be witnessed in eyes and nose. On the basis of the genes in dogs, the nose can be brown, black, dusty pale brown, or gray. The other pigments, that is, phaeomelanin is red. Most of the dogs exhibit both phaeomelanin and eumelanin, and the manner in which these two pigments get amalgamated is controlled by agouti locus.  

The white color in dogs is not stimulated by any pigment, but by the cells that do not possess the capability to produce any kind of pigment. The entire animal can be affected in a different manner to albinos, or it can be restricted like the white coat patterns.  

The correct statements regarding the mode of inheritance of the coat color genes are:  

1) One of the genes modifies the expression of the other.  

2) One of the genes is autosomal, and the other is X-linked.
