Answer:

b. dominant species

Explanation:

Dominant species in an ecological community is the one that is present in profuse number. Due to their abundance, they affect the presence, distribution, and abundance of other species of the community.

For example, trees are dominant species in the forest ecosystem and regulate the occurrence of other species on the forest floor by affecting the availability of light and moisture.

Answer:

Option (B)

Explanation:

<u>Dominant species are those that are found to exist abundantly in any specific type of ecosystem</u>. It generally reflects the highest amount of densely populated groups of species that significantly form a large biomass in an ecosystem. It also affects the occurrence and the scattering of these species.

<u>The dominant species acquire most of the resources that are available in an ecosystem and are the strongest</u>. These dominant species differ from one ecosystem to another. For example, the dominant plants in any type of forest ecosystem are the trees.

Thus, the correct answer is option (B).

Keith_Richards [23]

Answer: There re two different types of phenotypes in the offsprings that is Round yellow and Round green.

Explanation-

As per the Mendelian inheritance, Round shape and yellow color of pea are dominant over wrinkled shape and green color of pea.

According to the question, genotypes of parents are- RrYy ( heterzygous for round and yellow) and RRYy ( homozygous for round and heterozygous for yellow).

The first parent can produce four different gametes that is RY, Ry, rY, ry whereas the second parent will produce only two types of gametes that is RY and Ry.

When they are crossed, they will produce two different phenotypes in the offsprings.

Step 11 of skeletal muscle contraction:__________.

malfutka [58]

Answer:

The suitable option will be - B

B) Phosphate and ADP form to make ATP which binds to the myosin head and causes cross-bridge to detach.

Explanation:

Until step 11, skeletal muscle has already done cross-bridge and power stroke. ADP is released just after the power stroke. After that phosphate and ADP form a new ATP which gets bound to the myosin head.

Then at step 11, cross-bridge is released as a new ATP is bound to myosin head.

So, we can say that option B is correct.

Brums [2.3K]

The fossil record indicates that the earliest hominids most likely originated in "Africa," since this is the location from which humans eventually migrated to other locations.
