Match each light behavior with its definition.

aalyn [17]

1-refraction

2-transmission

3-reflection

4-diffraction

<u>Explanation:</u>

Refraction is the bending of a wave when it enters a medium where its speed is different.Refraction is responsible for image formation by lenses and the eye.

Transmission of light is the moving of electromagnetic waves through a material. This transmission can be reduced, or stopped, when light is reflected off the surface or absorbed by the molecules in the material.

Reflection is when light bounces off an object.Light is reflected when there is a mismatch between materials through which the light is travelling.

Diffraction is the slight bending of light. The amount of bending depends on the relative size of the wavelength of light to the size of the opening.

In summer squash, white fruit color (W) is dominant over yellow fruit color (w) and disk shaped fruit (D) is dominant over spher

dangina [55]

Answer:

Genotypic ratio = 16 WwDd: 0

Phenotypic ratio = 16 white, disk shaped fruit : 0 yellow, sphere shaped fruit

Explanation:

This question involves two different genes coding for fruit color and fruit shape respectively. The allele for white fruit color (W) is dominant over yellow fruit color (w) and disk shaped fruit (D) is dominant over sphere-shaped fruit (d).

According to this question, If a squash plant pure-breeding for white, disk shaped fruit (WWDD) is crossed with a plant pure breeding for yellow, sphere shaped fruit (wwdd), the following gametes will be produced by each GAMETE:

WWDD - WD, WD, WD, WD

wwdd - wd, wd, wd, wd

Using these gametes in a punnet square, all of the offsprings will have genotype WwDd, which is phenotypically white and disk shaped fruit.

The genotypic ratio is 4 WwDd: 0

The phenotypic ratio is 16 white, disk shaped fruit : 0 yellow, sphere shaped fruit.
