<u>Answer</u>: Option D ww

<u>Explanation</u>:

  • The <em>genotype</em> of an organism is defined as its genetic makeup.
  • According to the question, the cross is being made between a cat with genotype Ww and a cat with genotype ww.
  • Since, W is dominant over w, the parent with genotype Ww will have long whiskers and the parent with genotype ww will have short whiskers.
  • When a cross is made between them, we get the following result :

<em>Ww X ww ------> Ww Ww ww ww</em>

Since Ww will have long whiskers, the progeny with short whiskers will have the genotype ww.

Tom [10]

The right answer is A.

Lactic fermentation is a catabolic process, a fermentation, having as a starting point glycolysis, which produces an acid, lactic acid used to reoxidize NADH to NAD+, and by the way it produces energy in form of ATP.

In other words, lactic acid fermentation is a biological process by which sugars such as glucose, fructose, and sucrose are converted into cellular energy and metabolic byproduct, lactate. It is a lactic ferment that intervenes.

Answer:

  Variations Within Ecosystems

Ecosystem diversity can be described as a term which is used o describe the changes within an ecosystem and the impact these changes have on the environment and humans.

Variations within an ecosystem can cause genetic drifts. Variations will cause those organisms to survive which are better adapted to survive to the changes which occur in an ecosystem. And the organisms which are not better suited become extinct over a period of time. Hence, this will lead to a wide rise in biodiversity.
