Answer: The correct answer for the blanks are- 1) Dominant and 2) Blending of the trait.
Incomplete dominance produces a blend/ intermediate phenotype of both the parental phenotypes ( such as Pink snapdragon here) because none of the parental allele completely masks the effect of other.
As per the given information in the question, when true-breeding, red snapdragons are crossed with true-breeding white snapdragons, they produce pink colored offspring. This means that neither of the parental gene is dominant over the other.
When both are cross bred, they will represent a heterozygous state ( when alleles for both the snapdragons are present ), and they will produce an intermediate phenotype ( that is a blend of both the traits). This represents blending of the parental trait.

Answer:
The humble sunflower appears not quite of this earth. Its yellow crowned head sits atop its stalk like a green broomstick. Its seeds, arranged in a logarithmic spiral, are produced by tiny flowers called disc florets that emerge from the center of its head and radiate outward. But aside from being a biological marvel, the sunflower is also often in the scientific spotlight.
From understanding how new plant species emerge to studying “solar tracking,” which is how the flowers align themselves with the sun’s position in the sky, sunflowers are a darling in the field of science. However, researchers can only get so far in understanding a plant without detailed genetic knowledge. And after close to a decade, it has finally unfurled itself.An international consortium of 59 researchers who set their sights on the laborious task of sequencing and assembling the sunflower’s genome published their results in a 2017 study in Nature. This achievement will provide a genetic basis for understanding how the sunflower responds and adapts to different environments. “We are on the cusp of understanding sunflower adaptability,” says Loren Rieseberg, a leading sunflower expert at the University of British Columbia and a supervisor of this study.
With its genome assembled, scientists are hopeful for the next phase of the sunflower’s scientific career: as a “model crop” for studying climate adaptability in plants. This task is more complex and urgent now than ever. Climate change, according to a paper in the Annals of Botany, “will influence all aspects of plant biology over the coming decades,” posing a threat to crops and wild plants alike.
Answer: Organisms depend on other organisms and on the nonliving things in an ecosystem to meet their basic needs for food, water and protection. 3. Plants use energy from the sun to produce their own food from air and water.
