Answer:
c. Ecosystem science
Explanation:
<em>Sustainability is incorrect because it means the existence of resources for a long term.</em>
<em>Environmental science is incorrect because it is the branch of science that studies the processes and interactions that affect the environment.</em>
<em>Biodiversity science is incorrect because it is the study of various species that occupy a particular area.</em>
The correct option is c. Ecosystem science is the study of community of living organisms, how they interact with themselves and with non-living components of the community.
Being moral helps people to distinguish between good and bad.
A person who lives a moral life has a much easier life. It is easier physically and emotionally to live by the laws and rules. You have peace of mind knowing that you have not intended harm to anyone.
Answer:
a. Her mother has zig-zag antennae.
b. Her brother has zig-zag antennae.
Explanation:
<u>Available data</u>:
- Antennae development ⇒ controlled by maternal effect
- Zig-zag coils are dominant
- Curly coils are recessive
- A female develops zig-zag coils
Maternal effect: Refers to the influence of the “environment provided by the mother” on the progeny phenotype. The mother´s genotype directly determines the progeny phenotype. Even though the progeny has a different genotype, it is irrelevant, as well as the father´s genotype or phenotype. This means that no matter what is the genotype of the offspring, all of them will express the same phenotype as their mother. The maternal effect is commonly seen in insects and might be seen in some mammals and plants.
So, if a female has zig-zag coils, this means that the mother also has zig-zag antennae and that all the brothers and sisters of this female ant have zig-zag antennae, independently of their genotype.
a. Her mother has zig-zag antennae ⇒ True. The trait is inherited from the mother.
b. Her brother has zig-zag antennae ⇒ True. The whole progeny will express sig-zag antennae.
c. This female carries the zig-zag allele ⇒ Not necessarily.
d. This female's offspring will have zig-zag antennae ⇒ Depends on it´s genotype
