a. Genotype: ½ Yy : ½ yy; Phenotype: ½ yellow : ½ green
b. Genotype: all Yy; Phenotype: all yellow

Answer: A. Genotype: 1/2 Yy; 1/2 yy. Phenotype: 1/2 Yellow; 1/2 Green.

Explanation: The answer lies in Punnett´s Square. A visual representation of Mendelian inheritance. Dominant genes always express when an organism presents them. Recessive genes express when both alleles contain the recessive gene. A heterozygote contains different alleles for the same gene (Yy). A homozygote contains the same alleles for the same gene (YY/yy), which can be a Dominant (YY) or Recessive (yy) Homozygote.

Biogeographic isolation separates of a species through geographical and biological forces.
xenn [34]

Biogeographic isolation refers to the separation of the members of the similar species, or a group of organisms, which breed and generate offspring that can further give rise to young ones.  

The separation can be achieved by the geographical forces like oceans, rivers, and mountains, and by the biological forces, like hunting times, and spring or fall mating.

Difference between osmosis, diffusion and plasmolysis
pickupchik [31]
Osmosis is the movement of water particles from an area of high concentration of water particles to an area of low concentration of water particles across a semi permeable membrane

Diffusion is the movement of particles from an area of high concentration of particles to an area of low concentration of particles across a partially permeable membrane

Plasmolysis is the shrinking of the cytoplasm if a plant cell in response to diffusion of water out of the cell and into a high salt concentration solution as the cell membrane would pull away from the cell wall
