Answer:

The result of cross two squashes with yellow seeds is an offspring of squash with green seeds -dominant caracter- heterozygous and yellow seeds squashes in a genotype proportion 1:2:1  and phenotype proportion 3:1

Explanation:

The cross of two heterozygous individuals for a characteristic results in an offspring that will have both characteristics in pure and heterozygous form. It is a cross monohybrid which complies with the principle of independent segregation exposed by Mendel.

For the characteristic "seed color" the green color would be G and yellow represented as g.

At the cross of two heterozygous squashs:

- Parents: Gg X Gg

- <u>Punnett's Square</u>:

Alleles    G         g

G           GG       Gg

g           Gg        gg

Offspring:

  • A pumpkin of green seeds GG (25%)
  • Two pumpkins of green heterozygous seeds Gg (50%)
  • One pumpkin of yellow seeds gg (25%)

Genotype proportion 1:2:1

Phenotype proportion 3:1

Describe how greenhouse gases contribute to climate change
vladimir1956 [14]
Greenhouse gases arise naturally, and are part of the make-up of our atmosphere. Earths conditions are just right to allow life, including us, to flourish. Part of what makes Earth so amenable is the naturally-arising greenhouse effect, which keeps the planet at a friendly 15 °C (59 °F) on average. But in the last century or so, humans have been interfering with the energy balance of the planet, mainly through the burning of fossil fuels that give off additional carbon dioxide into the air. The level of carbon dioxide in Earth’s atmosphere has been rising consistently for decades and traps extra heat near the surface of the Earth, causing temperatures to rise.

Conifer trees dominate boreal forests rather than tundra because of
Masja [62]

Coniferous trees dominate Boreal forests rather than tundra because of the lack of permanently frozen soil.

a lack of permanently frozen soil.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Boreal forests are characterized by a cold but not so cold weather. This means that it is too cold for the growth of deciduous trees. When it comes to the growth of tundra, the weather isn’t cold enough for the growth of tundra.

Tundra requires permafrost which is a permanently frozen layer of ground . The Boreal forests lack permafrost and thus isn’t suitable for the growth of tundra vegetation.
