Answer:
B
Explanation:
Mendel discovered that an organism receives two forms of a gene called allele from each parent. This alleles combine to form the genotype of that organism, which in turn determines the phenotype.
Mendel crossed purebreeding plants that produced only tall and short plants respectively. He got an all tall F1 offspring. He then self-crossed the F1 offsprings to get a phenotypic ratio of 3:1 in the F2 offsprings. He discovered that the tall allele was dominant over the short allele for the height gene in pea plants. This is because the tall alleles masked the expression of the short allele in the F1 generation making them all exhibit tall traits.
The F1 are regarded as hybrids or heterozygotes because they were a mixture or combination of two different alleles. This mixture was confirmed in the F2 offsprings that produced 3 tall plants and 1 short plant, showing that the recessive allele was still present but masked in the heterozygotic combination.
The answer is tides.
Explanation: high tides and low tides are caused by the moon. The moons gravitational pull generates the tidal force
Answer:
The advantage of shedding broad leaves in the winter is to conserve the energy that needs to expand in order to provide heat to each part of the plant including leaves as in winters it becomes very dry and cold. If they do not shed their leaves they have to spend more energy to spend energy on leaves.
Needles like leaves have a thick cuticle layer that prevents from losing water in dry conditions or conditions with a limited amount of water in the soil. These leaves also help in photosynthesis by capturing more sunlight as they have a larger surface area. These adaptions can live in poor soil, rain and snowy conditions.
