It would be "rr". This is due to the fact that recessive genes, like white-eyed, have to have a genotype with both recessive to show up.

The following choices are given;

A. XrXr. B. XrY. C. XRY D. XRXr

The answer is B. This is because the presence of the Y chromosome determines gender- which is male. In addition, it carries few genes than the X sex chromosome. Therefore, in this case, the X chromosome brings in the receive allele for eye color while the Y chromosome has no corresponding allele.

In most diploid organisms, they are two types of alleles for most genes which each on each set of chromosomes and at the same loci. In most cases, one allele is dominant over the other meaning that its presence masks the effect of the recessive allele.  In the absence of the dominant allele, the recessive allele is expressed . Usually, the recessive gene is disadvantageous to the individual.

Answer:

C. Osmosis

Explanation:

Osmosis is the net movement of solvent molecules, usually water, from a region of lower solute concentration to a region of higher solute concentration through a partially permeable membrane. Osmosis is a very useful for moving materials in and out of the cell.

Solutions are mixtures of solutes and solvents. The main aim of osmosis is for all the mixture part to be uniform and the solvent equally dispersed to all the part of the solution.

Osmosis is controlled to a large extent by concentration gradient.

Diffusion on the otherhand is the movement of molecules of a substance from one position to another.

Facilitated diffusion and active transport are just mechanisms for transport within a cell or a body.

The correct answers are:

1. Barrier island;

The barrier islands are island formed from the deposition of sediments, relatively close to the coastline. They are often in a linear shape, parallel to the shore, and being attractive tourist places.

2. Steep and rapidly exposed;

The cliffs are rocky structures that appear on the coastline itself. They are very steep, vertical, or even bent over the water bellow them, and they rise sharply above the water.

3. False;

The coastlines are changing constantly. The reason for that are the weathering and erosion processes, the deposition of sediments, as well as the rise or fall of the sea level.
