The developer's plan would affect the salamanders that live in the woodlot by taking away their vernal pool, the lack of a vernal pool would mean that the salamanders would have no place to mate and lay their eggs. This would result in a drastic reduction of salamanders in the area.

The allele for brown fur in mice (B) is dominant over the allele for white fur (b).
evablogger [386]

Answer:

Genotype: Bb (heterozygous)

Phenotype: brown fur

Explanation:

Since allele B is dominant to allele b, as long as genotype has allele B in it, its effect of phenotype will be expressed instead, regardless of whether allele b is present.

As mouse genotype is stated as Bb, on the chromosome from its parents, allele B comes from one parent while allele b is inherited from the other parent.

Phenotype is the expressed trait. In this case, as genotype has allele B, the phenotype will be brown fur as its effect is expressed.

Which of the following is true about reproduction that involves meiosis?
irakobra [83]

<u>The offspring are genetically unique.  </u>

Answer: Option C

<u>Explanation:</u>

Meiosis is a form of cell division that is concentrated towards the reproductive cells. In this cell division the diploid cells (two sets of chromosomes) undergo reduction to form a haploid cell (one set of chromosome). The haploid cell produces sperms and eggs.

Meiosis occurs in two levels Meiosis I and II. Chromosomal segregation happens during meiosis I and II to produce a genetic diversity. The important net result obtained by the meiosis is to produce a genetically unique offspring.
