Answer:
C. 1/4
Explanation:
Let's assume that the allele for the spotted coat is "S" and the one for the even coat is "s". The allele "L" gives short horns while the recessive allele "l" imparts long horns. The genotype of the cattle heterozygous for both traits would be SsLl. A cross between two heterozygous cattle would produce progeny in following phenotype ratio=
9 spotted coat and short horns: 3 even coat and short horns: 3 spotted coat and long horns: 1 even coat and long horns.
Therefore, the proportion of the progeny with long horns = 4/16= 1/4
Explanation:
The animals that remain active during the day are called the diurnal while animals that remain active during night are called the nocturnal.
As per the question we can distinguish organisms and plants and see their behavior during the day as well as during night. Diurnal are organisms that activate during the day, while the organisms that activate during the night are called the nocturnal. Among the animals, nocturnal animals are bats, mouse, hedgehog, etc. The appearance of the nocturnal animals is due to the following three factors :
-- to avoid heat
-- to hunt
-- to mate
Earth's mantle plays an important role in the evolution of the crust and provides the thermal and mechanical driving forces for plate tectonics. Heat liberated by the core is transferred into the mantle where most of it (> 90%) is convected through the mantle to the base of the lithosphere.
