Dodos were flightless birds that have been extinct for about 300 years. Imagine that biologists found two surviving dodos on pre

sent-day Earth and mated this pair of birds. What would you expect of the resulting dodo population after three generations?
a. Adaptations will occur in this population as a result of genetic drift.
b. The frequencies of alleles in this new dodo population may be very different from the frequencies from 1,000 years ago.
c. Random mating will ensure that closely related individuals never mate with each other
d. The maximum number of alleles present for any gene in the new population is two

Answer:

B. The frequencies of alleles in this new dodo population may be very different from the frequencies from 1,000 years ago.

Due to a population bottleneck, the frequency of alleles in this new dodo population may be very different from the frequencies expected in larger (now nonexistent) populations

Complete the sentences by matching the names of trees to the appropriate blanks.
raketka [301]

Answer: A: Pine, Cedar and Mango.

B: Pine and Cedar

C: Mango, Cedar and Elm

D: Pine and Cedar

Explanation: Evergreens plants always have there leaves on regardless of the season, because their roots go very deep into the soil getting water and nutrients far below the levels other tap roots can go, they are mainly found in the rain forest region that have abundance of water. Example, Mango

Deciduous trees are usually found at desert places that dont always have water, so they lose their leaves during etreme weather to reduce the rate of evaporation of water on its surface. Example, Maple.

Hardwood: These are flowering plants. they usually have broad leaves and nuts. example, Mahogany.

Conifers: These are cone bearing seed plants. they are perennial and woody plants. Example Pine.

Which best describes the role of a primary consumer in a food web?
Soloha48 [4]

Answer:

Herbivore that feeds on producers

Explanation:

The producers are plants at the bottom of the food web. These are eaten by herbivores, that are the primary consumers.

Herbivores themselves are consumed by carnivores, which are secondary consumers.

Sometimes, these carnivores can be consumed by top predators, like a shark, snake or eagle.

<u>Options and why they are right/wrong</u>

Carnivore that feeds on producers  - carnivores do not feed on producers

Herbivore that feeds on producers  - this is correct

Herbivore that feeds on primary consumers  - primary consumers are animals and herbivores do not eat animals

Carnivore that feeds on primary consumers - this would be a secondary consumer

In flies, red eyes (R) are dominant to brown eyes (r). A heterozygous fly is crossed with a homozygous recessive fly
hichkok12 [17]

Answer:

The cross of a heterozygous fly with a homozygous fly can be shown as follows:

         r            r

R      Rr           Rr

r        rr            rr

The results show that there is a 50% probability that the flies produced will have red eyes. Their genotypes will be heterozygous.

The results of the punnet square show that there will be a 50% probability that the offsprings will have brown eyes. Their genotype will be homozygous recessive.

A homozygous trait can be described as a trait which has same alleles for the gene which encodes the trait. Heterozygous means that both the alleles for the trait will be different.
