Suppose that a dominant allele (P) codes for a polka-dot tail and a recessive allele (p) codes for a solid colored tail. In addi

tion, suppose that a dominant allele (L) codes for long eyelashes and a recessive allele (l) codes for short eyelashes. If two individuals heterozygous for both traits (tail color and eyelash length) mate, what's the probability of the phenotypic combinations of the offspring? A. 1:1 ratio (half are polka-dot tails and short eyelashes; half are solid tails and long eyelashes) B. 1:1 ratio (half are polka-dot tails and long eyelashes; half are solid tails and short eyelashes) C. 9:3:3:1 ratio (9 polka-dot tails and long eyelashes, 3 polka-dot tails and short eyelashes, 3 solid tails and short eyelashes, 1 solid tail and short eyelash) D. 9:3:3:1 ratio (9 polka-dot tails and short eyelashes, 3 polka-dot tails and short eyelashes, 3 solid tails and long eyelashes, 1 solid tail and long eyelash)

If two individual are heterozygous for both traits then there genotype will each look like this PpLl. To find the probability, you need to do a cross with both traits. Each parent has the possibility of giving the following combinations: PL, Pl, pL, pl.
 
                 PL        Pl         pL           pl
PL         PPLL     PPLl     PpLL        PpLl        
Pl          PPLl      PPll      PpLl          Ppll
pL         PpLL     PpLl      ppLL        ppLl
pl          PpLl      Ppll       ppLl          ppll

Polka dot tail/ long lashes: 9/16
Polka dot tail/ short lashes: 3/16
Solid Tail / long lashes: 3/16
solid tail/ short lashes 1/16

The answer is (C) 9:3:3:1 ratio with 9 polka dot tails and long eyelashes, 3 polka dot tails and short eyelashes, 3 solid tails and long eyelashes (there seems to be a typo in the question) and 1 short tail short eyelash

3. Did the moths change color over this time period?
AURORKA [14]
I believe that I know what you are talking about however a better layout or source would be nice.
3:I’m sorry I’m not really sure how to answer this one but I’m going to assume that you mean from dark to light. So they liked this time period because the trees were darker due to pollution, this made the darker moths survive from predators while the lighter color moths would be eaten, over time, natural selection would do its course and the whole population of moths would be dark.
4:Well I kind of already answered this but the majority of them were dark because the lighter ones would not be camouflaged therefore making them be easier target for predators and makes the darker moths breed out the lighter ones.
5:Well giraffes cannot live without food so the giraffes with shorter necks would slowly die off making it so only the long necked one would be able to reproduce with babies which would also have long necks, over a long course of time, the shorter necks would be completely gone.
6:Well I wouldn’t say they “grow” longer necks. It’s more like genetic mutation made it so random giraffes would get longer necks then others, since giraffes live in an environment where they have to have long necks only the giraffes with that genetic mutation would survive, and as a said, the longer neck giraffes could only breed with the other Long necked giraffes cause those are the only ones that could survive.

Explain how capillary action is really just teamwork between adhesion and cohesion.
frez [133]

The red blood cells are cohesive, meaning they want to stick together. if one cell moves along the capillary this cohesion will drag the neighboring cell with it. the cells are also adhesive to the capillary walls, so they stick along the tube lining as they are dragged through the capillary.
