Imagine that a rancher has a herd of cattle with brown hides and short horns. All of his cattle are also relatively short in sta

ture. If all of these traits were true breeding, what could you say about the progeny of these cattle?a) It is impossible to determine the traits of such progeny—they will likely demonstrate different hide colors, horn lengths, and heights.b) The progeny of these cattle will have brown, black, white, and spotted hides.c) The progeny of these cattle will have short horns, but a variety of hide colors and heights.d) The progeny of these cattle will be short in stature and have brown hides and short horns.e) Since the cattle are true breeding, the progeny of this herd will all be sterile.

Answer:

The correct answer would be option D.

Explanation:

True breeding is a breeding procedure in which the parents would always produce their progeny with the same phenotype characters as the parents carry. This means for every trait these parents are homozygous so their offspring must show a similar phenotype.

In this case, all cattle are true-breeding which means they homozygous alleles show the progeny will also show similar traits which are short stature with brown hides and short horns.

Thus, the correct answer is option D.

A cell has a defect in its receptor for growth factors, preventing growth factors from attaching to and signalling the cell. Bas
morpeh [17]

Answer:

Option B

Explanation:

B. The cell will grow uncontrollably and continue to divide as long as it has food.

Cell growth is theeoretically stimulated by the binding of growth factors to their receptors using signaling pathways.

These pathways are regulated by proteins which are encoded for in the genes.

The gene that controls the regulation of these pathway when mutated produce malfunctioning signaling protein thus not allow for regulations of the cell cycle causing uncontrollable cell division. These mutated genes are called oncogenes.

What is relationship among the location of volcanues,earthquake epicenter,and mauntain ranges?
Korolek [52]
Volcanoes, earthquakes and mountain ranges are all results of the tectonic movement of the Earth. 
<span>When two plates collide and one does not completely give way and go under the other the crust is pushed up forming mountain ranges. 
</span>An earthquake is the shaking and vibration of the Earth's crust due to movement<span> of the Earth's </span>plates<span> (plate </span>tectonics<span>).
</span>And volcano is created <span>when </span>plates<span> are pushed together or pulled apart.
So, the relationship between volcanoes, earthquakes and mountain ranges is their connection with the tectonic movement of the Earth.</span>

Explain how the edges and corridors can strongly influence landscape biodiversity
Dahasolnce [82]

Answer:

The edges or boundaries between the ecosystems and within it are the illustrating characteristics of landscapes. In a landscape, the biodiversity is affected by the composition of the landscape itself. When an area possesses boundaries or edges, which minimize the area of the habitat, it also starts to minimize the number of species, which can associate with the communities.  

The multiplication of edge species can exhibit both negative and positive influences on the biodiversity of a community. On the other hand, corridors refer to the region associated with the populations of wildlife distinguished by human activities like road construction. The prime objective of designing habitat corridors is to enhance biodiversity. The corridors that have been protracted to other habitat patches can reinstate a certain degree of space and at the same time reestablish certain chances for genetic diversity.

What is the relationship between the Kuiper Belt and the status of Pluto today?
pentagon [3]

The correct answer is B. The Kuiper Belt is home to a dwarf planet similar to Pluto

Explanation

The Kuiper Belt is the most remote area of the solar system, it is an elliptical region, which is more or less 149.5 million kilometers from the sun. Its name refers to the fact that it is a belt, so it could be associated with the appearance of the asteroid belt that is located between Mars and Jupiter. However, in the Kuiper Belt most objects are icy rather than rocky. In this region of the solar system you can find several dwarf planets such as Pluto, these planets are classified as such because their size is enough to be considered as or asteroids, but they cannot be considered planets either because they do not meet any requirement. According to the above, the correct answer is B. The Kuiper Belt is home to a dwarf planet similar to Pluto
