Crawfish are shelled organisms that live in shallow freshwater rivers. They can have antennae of different lengths. Two parents

with medium length antennae have offspring. One of their offspring has short antennae, and one has long antennae. How did the offspring end up with traits that are different from the traits of their parents? How did the gene combinations result in these traits?

The phenotype of antenna in crawfish depends on the protein amount in the antenna length. The offspring have different phenotype than their parent because of the amount of protein translated from each parent gene is determining in this.

The gene determines the amount of protein to be present in the antenna to determine its length.

Explanation:

Data given:

Two crawfish parent = medium length antennae, genotyoe Ll

One offspring = short antenna, genotype ll

one offspring = long antennae, genotype LL

The traits in offspring is shown as:

       L    l

L   LL    Ll

l   Ll     ll

The proportion of allele present in the gene determined the length of the antenna in crawfish.

The difference in length of the antenna in crawfish is due to the amount of protein for the phenotype present in the individual. The amount of protein to be expressed in the crawfish is given by both the parents. The tendency of protein expresed define the phenotype of antenna length.

Important advantages to raised-bed gardens are that they
Illusion [34]

A raised-bed garden is a type of gardening method in which the vegetables and other small plants are grown in garden boxes kept elevated above the ground. These garden boxes are kept separated from each other.

The advantages of having a raised-bed garden are:

1. The movement of harmful pest from crop to another is hindered.

2. It prevent the compaction of the soil.

3. It stops the propagation and growth of weeds from one box to another.

4. It provides better drainage of water from the soil.

5. The walls of the garden box prevent the erosion of the soil.

6. The garden boxes conserve space.

Hence the answer will be B. conserve water and space for growing and limit compaction of the soil.

How does the process of concentration affect vitamin c content of orange juice
kaheart [24]
Vitamin C, ascorbic acid, is one of the most important vitamins found in citrus juices, including orange juice.<span> The temperature and storage time affects the percent of vitamin C content of orange fruits and orange juice. Different varieties of oranges also have different levels of vitamin C. The mid-season variety, Pineapple Orange had the highest levels, followed by the main early-season variety, Hamlin Orange. The late-season Valencia Orange had the lowest vitamin C content. Additionally, it was found that the longer the Valencia Orange fruit stayed on the tree, the lower the vitamin C level. </span>

Which finding would have disproved Virchow’s hypothesis?
dexar [7]

Answer:

Virchow was a German scientist whose most important work was in the filed of cellular biology and pathology.His scientific experiments and examinations aimed to disprove the idea of spontaneous generation. This idea is based on an assumption that life can spontaneously appear out of non-living matter. After years of scientific work he concluded that only living cells can produce other cells, or that only life can produce life.Therefore, if it was somehow proven that cells can be generated from non-living matter, that would disprove his findings.
