the squirrel population?

Assuming it survives, it will be propagated into the population. If it confers an advantage, it will come in faster and eventually become predominant.

The other question is if this squirrel mates, is this new allele dominant over the regular color? Is it co-dominant? Is it recessive!? Seems like it is dominant as it was expressed...as the squirrel likely has one regular allele and thenthis new allele.

Of course, being darker may make it easier to be preyed upon...so perhaps bye bye squirrel and it doesn’t get passed on.

Xelga [282]

Answer:

See the answer below

Explanation:

The question that can be answered with the F2 cross would be <u>if the yellow flower color is dominant over the red flower color in the species</u>. In other words, <u>whether the inheritance of flower color follows a simple Mendelian inheritance or otherwise can be answered.</u>

<em>Assuming that the inheritance of the flower color follows the Mendelian pattern, the red flower trait would re-emerge among the F2 offspring and the ratio of yellow to red flower offspring would approximately be equal to</em><em> 3:1.</em><em> Otherwise, a more complex pattern of inheritance would be involved.</em>

Which factors affect soil quality?
lesya692 [45]

Answer:

All of the above

Explanation:

When we talk about soil quality we talk about soil components.  The chemical composition is an active part of the soil components because it has Nitrogen, Ca+, Oxygen and other molecules that affects the interaction among the soil and its environment. The living organisms interacts with the molecules in the soil changing constantly their concentrations that modify the pH and the soil quality. All of these changes accumulation tell us how the soil has changed through the time, also can give us information to predict how soil will change, this is known as history of the soil.

To summarize the chemical composition affects directly the soil quality, the history of the soil are all the changes that it has suffer in its composition through time so it define the actual soil quality and the living organisms interact with the chemical composition changing it constantly and giving new qualities to the soil.
