The genes that survive and flourish in a species are the strong ones. Strong genes evolve into the next generation, while weaker ones die.
Question 8's answer is likely the first option, as it would pass that trait down to its offspring, the other two options do not work. The second option would be bad for the cactus, and the third wouldn't be passed down.
<span>Answer: the genes for the two traits assort independently.
The proportion </span><span>9:3:3:1 is found when studying two genes at the same time,</span><span> known as a dihybrid cross.
Mendel did this cross and found that the offspring, had 4 different phenotypes, but in different quantities . </span>This ratio led Mendel to develop the law of independent assortment.
Answer:
All living organisms share several key characteristics or functions: order, sensitivity or response to the environment, reproduction, growth and development, regulation, homeostasis, and energy processing. When viewed together, these characteristics serve to define life.
