The answer is invasive species.


Invasive species are species that are not native to specific ecosystem, but they have a capability to spread widely through the ecosystem, This way they can threaten native species of the ecosystem or cause environmental harm. 

<span>After being introduced into the Black Sea, they greatly affect local ecosystem. In the new area, they have no natural predators and are able to spread. If they spread beyond the area they are introduced, they become invasive species which can overgrow native biotopes and are a great threat to the local biodiversity. This could lead to the extinction of some native species.</span>

Inga [223]

Answer:

<h2>1. DdBb</h2><h2>2. ddBb</h2><h2>3. DB, Db, dB and db.</h2><h2>4.  dB and db.</h2><h2>5 50% or 1/2</h2><h2>6. 1/8 </h2>

Explanation:

As given, Allele for dimples(D) is dominant over alleles for no dimples (d), so D  is dominant over d.

Allele for broad eyebrows (B) is dominant over allele for slender eyebrows (b), so B is dominant over b.

A man heterozygous for both traits ( DdBb) marries a women who has no dimple and heterozygous fro eyebrow (ddBb)

So cross is =  DdBb × ddBb

1). Genotype of the man is DdBb.

2). Genotype of the woman is ddBb.

3). Genotype of the gametes produced by the man are DB, Db, dB and db.

4). Genotype of the gametes produced by the woman are dB and db.

5). Probability that their first child will have dimples 50% or 1/2

6). Probability that there first child will have both dimples as well as slender eyebrows 1/8
