Answer:
Alleles for feather colour exhibit incomplete dominance or co-dominance.
50% gray offspring + 50% black offspring
Explanation:
<em>It means that the alleles for feather colour in the hen exhibit incomplete dominance or co-dominance over one another.</em>
Assuming the allele for white colour is B, white colour will be b while the heterozygote Bb gives the gray phenotype.
Gray rooster + gray hen = 15 gray chicks, 6 black chicks and 8 white chicks.
15:6:8 is roughly 2:1:1 which is phenotypic ratio obtainable from crossing two heterozygous individuals as pointed out by Mendel.
Bb x Bb = 1BB, 2Bb, and 1bb
Crossing the gray rooster (Bb) with a black hen (bb):
Bb x bb = Bb, Bb, bb, and bb
= 2Bb (gray):2bb (black)
50% of the offspring will be gray while the remaining 50% will be black.
There are many biotic elements in a rainforest biome. But the most obvious one is trees, because biotic means living and trees are living.
Answer:
a. Mastication process and formation of bolus in the oral cavity
b. The contraction in the stomach breaks the food down into smaller pieces. These pieces are then moved to the small intestine.
c. In the small intestine, food particles are broken down into nutrients, fat, protein and carbohydrates which are absorbed into the bloodstream.
Explanation:
a. First step of digestive system functioning is the mastication process and formation of bolus in the oral cavity.
b. The contraction in stomach, with the help of digestive enzymes and acids, break the food down into smaller pieces. The small pieces of food are then released into the first part of the small intestine (duodenum).
c. In the small intestine, two enzymes released from pancreas and gall bladder break down the food particles into fats, proteins, and carbohydrates. Thereon, nutrients and carbohydrates, proteins and fats are absorbed into the bloodstream.
