Which of the following statements correctly describes how Mendel accounted for the observation that traits had disappeared in th

e F1 generation and then reappeared in the F2 generation?
A) Traits can be dominant or recessive, and the recessive traits were "hidden" by the dominant ones in the F1.
B) New mutations were frequently generated in the F2 progeny, causing traits that had been lost in the F1 to reappear in the F2.
C) Members of the F1 generation had only one allele for each trait, but members of the F2 had two alleles for each trait.
D) The mechanism controlling the appearance of traits was different between the F1 and the F2 plants.

Answer:

A) Traits can be dominant or recessive, and the recessive traits were "hidden" by the dominant ones in the F1.

Explanation:

Mendel discovered the fundamental theory of heredity: that inheritance involves the passing of genes (he called it discrete units of inheritance), from parents to offspring. Those genes are with two alleles in the genotype, one inherited from the father and other inherited from the mother.

When he cross-bred pure-bred parent (always produced offspring identical to the parent) plants dominant traits were always seen in the offspring, while recessive traits were hidden until the first-generation (F1) hybrid plants were left to self-pollinate. Mendel also noticed that in second-generation (F2) of the offspring 3:1 was ratio of dominant to recessive traits.

Each P1 parent of a monohybrid cross has completely identical genes<br> ture<br> false
lawyer [7]

Answer:

False.

Explanation:

Monohybrid cross may be defined as the cross done by taking the single character at the time. The monohybrid cross explains the concept of dominance and law of segregation.

The P1 parent of monohybrid cross doesnot have completely identical genes. This can be explained by the cross shown below:

Parent         Tt           ×       tt

Gamete         T  t           ×     t

Here, the parents are not identical.  

Thus, the answer is falsi.

There are several different kinds of aquatic ecosystems. Bogs get their water from precipitation, so they don't have many Fill i
Ratling [72]
  1. Bogs get their water from precipitation, so they don't have many <u>nutrients</u>.
  2. Marsh plants are adapted to waterlogged <u>soil</u>
  3. Swamps have <u>plants like trees and shrubs</u>.
  4. Rivers always have flowing currents and pick up <u>sediment</u> as they flow.
  5. Lakes are bodies of water on land.  
  6. Wetlands act as filters for nutrients and pollutants dissolved in the water.
  7. Estuaries are wetland regions where freshwater rivers mix with ocean water.

Explanation:

A wetland is a biome which has both water and land that are intermixed in various ways. According to the type of the wetland, the ecosystem differs.

Bogs: Wetland with water from precipitation and no inflow or outflow of surface or ground water.  

Soil: Acidic, infertile with less nutrient content

Vegetation: Acid-loving plants

Swamps: Forest wetlands near rivers and lakes.

Soil: well draining, mineral soil

Vegetation: Trees and bushes. Swamps are classified according to the vegetation, like coniferous swamp, hardwood swamp, shrub swamp etc

Marsh: Wetlands mostly inundated with water leading to waterlogged soil  

Soil: Organic and mineral soil

Vegetation: Hydrophytic plants adapted to waterlogged soil

Estuaries: Wetland regions enclosed by land one side where fresh water mixes with saline ocean water.  

Soil: Saline alkaline soil

Vegetation: Mangrove trees

Rivers and lakes are water bodies that form a part of wetlands.  

Rivers are flowing water bodies which flows through water current and picks up sediments as it flows.

Lakes are stationary water bodies that are enclosed by land mass on all its sides.

The wetlands act as a natural filter and receive all the sediments, pollutants etc which are dissolved in water and carried by the rivers and other water sources.
