Answer: The correct answer for the question is C) Citric acid (C6H8O7)

According to the property of acid and base, acids are sour in taste and bases are bitter in taste. Citric acid ( C6H8O7) is a weak organic acid that is naturally found in citrus fruits (like orange). It is used as an ingredient to make super sour candies.

Thus, a company would most likely use citric acid in large quantities so as to make super sour candies.

Answer:

here.

Explanation:

The genes coding for colour show codominance. Both the brown and white pigment are equally expressed in the phenotype to give the tan colour.

Considering that the allele for brown pigment is CB and that for white pigment is CW, the genotype for the brown bird is CB CB and that for the white bird is CW CW.

Crossing CB CB × CW CW,

100% CB CW - tan-coloured birds
