A black guinea pig crossed with an albino guinea pig produced 12 black offspring. When the albino is crossed with a different bl

ack guinea pig, the offspring are as follows: 7 black, 5 albino. What is the best explanation for this genetic outcome? Include the genotypes of both parents and offspring for each cross described.

In the first case,the black guinea pig with the genotype (BB) was quite dominant while the albino guinea pig with the genotype (bb) was recessive. Thus the dominant Gene masked the recessive Gene. The offsprings all had the genotype (Bb)

On the other hand,the second black guinea pig was also dominant but not totally because the genotype of the albino guinea pig was evident in some of the offsprings,thus the genotypes were as follows;

The black guinea pig (Bb),albino guinea pig (bb), Seven of the offsprings (Bb), the other five offsprings (bb)

Which statement best describes an effect of natural selection
I am Lyosha [343]
The answer should be B). Helpful traits passed to the next generation through reproduction.

B is correct because in natural selection, if a population cannot adapt over time it will be “naturally selected” and die off, or be near extinction due to non-adaptive ness. Hope this helped!

How are land, air, water and living things impacted by too much carbon dioxide?
choli [55]

Answer:

- In terrestrial environments: increasing CO2 levels cause an increased photosynthetic rate

- In aquatic environments: increasing CO2 levels cause an increase in water acidity  

- In both terrestrial and aquatic environments: increasing CO2 levels lead to an overall increase in the average temperature (global warming)

Explanation:

In terrestrial ecosystems, rising carbon dioxide (CO2) levels increase the rate of photosynthesis (since CO2 is one of the reactants in photosynthesis), thereby also increasing plant growth. Moreover, in aquatic ecosystems, rising CO2 concentrations increase the levels of this gas dissolved on the surface of the oceans. This increases the acidity of the oceans, thereby modifying habitats and food web structures. The increasing acidity of the oceans also reduces the amounts of carbonate, which difficult for aquatic species (e.g., corals) to form their shells/skeletons. Finally, CO2 is a greenhouse gas that contributes to the increase in the average temperature by absorbing solar radiation that would otherwise have been reflected by the Earth's surface, and this increase in the temperature negatively affects life in both terrestrial and aquatic environments.

What environment would be least likely to grow bacteria and why? Here are your choices:
storchak [24]

Answer:

3.

Explanation:

A classroom desktop is the least likely to grow bacteria because it is a relatively clean surface. The armpit of a human and a warm freshwater mud puddle are a more suitable habitat for bacteria because they are warm, and provide a relatively safe environment for them

A student has twenty identical young plants how does the amount of water given to these plants each day effect how tall the plan
mel-nik [20]

Answer:

The amount of water given to the plants depends on the effect of how tall the plant can overall grow. For instance, if all twenty identical plants are being given the same amount of water, then they will grow all at equal rates. However, if there is not equal amount/consistency with the amount of water the plants receive, then this factor may contribute to an uneven growth pattern between all twenty plants. However, other factors (such as location, sunlight, etc.) may also contribute to a plant's growth.
