Answer:

Explanation:

They live on plant nectar when not producing eggs. All adult mosquitoes feed on the nectar or honey dew of plants to get sugar, and that provides enough nourishment for both males and females to live, but females also need to produce eggs. To create eggs, females need protein, which they get from the blood of animals

Leaves need to be elevated so they are exposed so they are exposed to sunlight for photosynthesis. Which part of the stem grows

Varvara68 [4.7K]

A stem is one of two main structural axes of a vascular plant, the other being the root. The stem is normally divided into nodes and internodes. The nodes hold buds which grow into one or more leaves, conifer cones, roots, other stems, or flowers (inflorescences); the internodes distance one node from another.

The ozone layer protects life on Earth by absorbing harmful ultraviolet radiation. The ozone layer is located between 17 kilomet

Zolol [24]

The correct answer is (2) - Stratosphere. Ozone is found in the stratosphere , a layer beginning between 6 and 10 miles above the earth's surface and extends upward to about 30 mile above the surface of he earth. The ozone that is found in the stratosphere absorbs most of he harmful ultraviolet sunlight and is thus called the "good ozone" Ozone is also found in the lower region of the atmosphere known as the troposphere. But the ozone here strongly reacts with molecules causing toxicity in plants. The ozone is therefore termed as "bad ozone."

Suppose two independently assorting genes are involved in the pathway that determines fruit color in squash. These genes interac

makvit [3.9K]

Answer:

100% yellow fruit color, Yyww.

Explanation:

Available data:

two independently assorting genes

the W allele codes for a dominant white phenotype

w allele codes for a colored squash

The allele Y codes for a dominant yellow phenotype

the allele y codes for a recessive green phenotype

The phenotypes from the first locus will always mask the phenotype produced by the second locus if the dominant allele (W) is present at the first locus. This masking pattern is known as dominant epistasis

Epistasis means "interruption" and refers to interactions between genes located in different loci in the same chromosome. An “epistatic gene” can alter, influence, or suppress the expression of a "hypostatic gene". When the epistatic gene is dominant, the interaction is known as "dominant epistasis".

W suppresses the expression of Y and y, this means that whenever W is present, the fruit is white. If W is not present, the fruit color can be expressed.

So, the proposed cross in the present problem occurs between a green fruited individual and yellow fruited individual, which suggests that W is absent.

Genotype for Green fruit: yyww

Genotype for purebred Yellow fruit: YYww

Cross:

Parental) YYww x yyww

Gametes) Yw Yw Yw Yw yw yw yw yw

Punnet square) Yw Yw Yw Yw

yw Yyww Yyww Yyww Yyww

F1) 100% Yellow fruited plants, Yyww

As these two genes assort independently, we can also represent the cross for each gene by separate, like this:

For w gene:

Parental) ww x ww

Gametes) w w w w

Punnet square) w w

w ww ww

F1) 4/4 or 100% colored-fruits

For Y gene:

Parental) YY x yy

Gametes) Y Y y y

Punnet square) Y Y

y Yy Yy

F1) 4/4 or 100% yellow fruits, Yy.
