Answer:

False

Explanation:

The basic cycle of energy shows how energy decreases as it moves through higher trophic levels in an ecosystem. In the first level, the primary organisms (such as plants) utilize energy from the sun to generate biomass through photosynthesis. In the second level, the organisms exploit primary trophic level organisms as food sources and thus obtain energy. Finally, in the third level, carnivores eat the herbivory organisms to obtain energy. At each trophic level, an important part of the energy is lost as metabolic heat; however, this energy can not be reused, this principle is known as the 'law of conservation of energy'.

In the interactive activity, what are the possible phenotypes for fur color and what gene represents each?

dangina [55]

Answer:

Fur colour can be represented by both the dominant and the recessive alleles of the gene encoding the fur color.

Explanation:

Considering that the fur colour trait follows Mendelian laws of inheritance.

The dominant allele can express itself in both the homozygous and heterozygous condition.
The recessive allele can represent itself only in the homozygous condition.
Therefore, there will be two phenotypes, one will be represented by both the homozygous dominant and heterozygous dominant genotypes and the other represented by the homozygous recessive genotype.

Considering that the fur colour trait does not follows Mendelian laws of inheritance (Incomplete Dominance or Codominance).

In Incomplete dominance, three phenotypes are observed, for each of homozygous dominant, heterozygous dominant and homozygous recessive genotypes respectively.
In Codominance, phenotypes of both the dominant and recessive genotype is shown in the same individual.

qaws [65]

The correct answer is hydraulic lift.
In this case, the patient needs to be transferred using a bariatric lift, which is a specific type of hydraulic lift. A bariatric lift is specifically used to transfer bariatric patients, meaning patients who suffer from extreme obesity. The rest of the available lifts would not be suitable for this type of patient.
