Explanation:

Physical map: Physical maps display the physical features of a place, including land and water features such as mountains, plains, rivers, and oceans. ... Topographic map: Topographic maps also display physical features, using contour lines instead of color to show changes in the landscape, such as elevation

  1. Topographic maps are three-dimensional representations of landmass that use contour lines to depict elevation.
  2. Geologic maps are special purposes maps that show the geological properties of land- rock types, rock age, bedding planes, folds, and faults.
  3. Topographic maps are used for various purposes such as hiking or mining.

svlad2 [7]

Answer:

B. p will neither increase nor decrease; it will remain more or less constant under the conditions described

Explanation:

When a population is in Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium, it is not evolving and allele frequencies are not going to change across generations. Conditions for a population to be in Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium are :

  • Infinite population size
  • Random mating
  • No selection
  • No mutation
  • No gene flow

Since the moth population in question shows above mentioned characteristics, it is in Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium. Frequency of none of the alleles are going to change.

Hence, p will neither increase nor decrease; it will remain more or less constant under the conditions described.

While studying a newly discovered prokaryotic organism, you notice that it uses binary fission to multiply. Based on your knowle
Alex17521 [72]

Answer:

Binary fission is different from mitosis and meiosis because it occur in prokaryotic cells. And prokaryotic cells does not have nucleus like the eukaryotic cells and there is not mitotic spindle formation during binary fission compared to mitosis and meiosis.

Explanation:

Binary fission is a process of cell division where a single cells divide into two or more parts and the parts regenerate into another organisms which resembles the parent organisms. This occur only in prokaryotic cells and is very different from mitosis and meiosis that occur in eukaryotic cells because prokaryotic cells lack nucleus and no spindle formation in the nucleus.

Mitosis occur in eukaryotic cells because they have nucleus and membrane bound organelles and is the process where a parent cell divide to produce two daughter cells that are genetically identical to the parent cell and each cell having the same number of chromosomes of the parent cell.

Meiosis is a type of cell division that occur in eukaryotic cells and it occur in sex cells where a single cell divide into four daughter cells with each having half number of parent cell chromosomes.

Hemophilia is a sex-linked recessive trait in humans. If a father and a son are both hemophiliacs, but the mother is normal, her
saul85 [17]

Answer: XHXh (Note: the H's are superscripts.)

Explanation:

Hemophilia is a sex-linked recessive trait which means that the males having one altered copy of the gene is enough to cause the medical condition( as they have only one X chromosomes and females have two)

In this case the genotype of father and son is such that they are affected by hemophilia.The son has mother's X chromosome and father's Y chromosome.

XhY is the genotype of father and son. As mother would be heterozygous because she is not affected, her genotype will be XHXh.
