The first effect of a dam is to alter the pattern of disturbances on which the plants and animals of a river depend. Many aquatic animals coordinate their reproductive cycles with annual flood seasons. Every flood is valuable in that it takes nutrients from the land and deposits them in the river, providing food for the stream's residents. Floods also provide shallow backwater areas on vegetated and shaded riversides; the young of many animals depend on these backwaters to protect them from predators too large to swim in these shallow waters.

In chickens, the allele for a pea comb (A) is dominant to the allele for a single comb (a). A mother with the genotype Aa and a
zloy xaker [14]

Answer:

The percent chance that the offspring will have a single comb is 25 %

Explanation:

Given,

The allele for single comb represented as "a" is recessive to the allele for pea comb represented as "A"

Genotype of male - Aa

Genotype of female - Aa

Gamete of Male - A, a

Gamete of female - A, a

Cross between Aa and Aa will produce

AA, Aa, Aa, aa

Thus, out of four offspring only one has "aa" genotype and hence this individual will express the recessive trait i,e  aa

The percent chance that the offspring will have a single comb is

\frac{1}{4} * 100\\

25 %

Can you please help me with this?​
Lelu [443]

Answer:

The population of peppered moths thrived, because they camouflaged with the bark of the trees, thereby they were not easily seen by predators. Black moths were easily seen by predators and they were eaten as a result. Because the black moths did not survive, they were unable to reproduce offspring with those traits. However, peppered moths were able to reproduce offspring that were also peppered. During the industrial revolution, the colour of the bark darkened. This meant the peppered moths were easily seen by predators, so they were eaten. Black moths camouflaged with the bark, so now they weren't easily seen by predators. Now that the black moths survived, they could reproduce more black moths. But peppered moths weren't able to reproduce more peppered moths because most didn't survive. This is an example of how an abiotic factor, such as bark can affect a population of a species. Because the bark influenced the survival of the moths, some moths with the desirable traits survived, and others with the undesirable traits died.

Which traits separate fungi from plants?
andrew-mc [135]

We now know that they have unique physical, chemical, and genetic traits that set them apart from plants and other eukaryotes. For example, the cell walls of fungi are made of chitin, not cellulose. Also, fungi absorb nutrients from other organisms, whereas plants make their own food.
