Crayfish are invertebrates which means they don't have a backbone. They are also arthropods, which means that they have a protective exoskeleton on the outside of their body. Other arthropods include insects, spiders, and centipedes. Crayfish continually shed their exoskeleton and regrow a new one. During this transition is when they are most vulnerable to predators because they aren't protected by their outer shell.
Crayfish are found all over the world in many different freshwater environments, such as rivers, creeks, springs, and swamps. But this doesn't necessarily mean that you will be able to find them. They are somewhat cryptic because they dig out homes for themselves under rocks and blend in well with their environment. Crayfish will ardently defend this dwelling against intruders using their strong front claws
Answer:
3/4
Explanation:
If we assume simple dominance and independent assortment for each trait, we can use Mendel's Law of Segregation to predict the phenotypic proportions in the offspring of the parental cross AABBCc x AabbCc.
<h3><u>Gene A</u></h3>
AA x Aa
- F1 genotypes: 1/2 AA, 1/2 Aa
- F1 phenotypes: all A
<h3 /><h3><u>Gene B</u></h3>
BB x bb
- F1 genotypes: 1 Bb
- F1 phenotypes: all B
<h3 /><h3><u>Gene C</u></h3>
Cc x Cc
- F1 genotypes: 1/4 CC, 2/4 Cc, 1/4 cc
- F1 phenotypes: 3/4 C, 1/4 cc
We want to know the proportion of progeny with all dominant phenotype (A_B_C_). Since the genes are independent, we can multiply the probabilities of each gene to obtain the overall probability of having a ABC progeny:
<h3>1 A_ x 1 B_ x 3/4 C_ = 3/4 A_B_C_</h3>
Limiting factors for snakes can include frogs, grasshoppers, farmers, pesticides, weather, climate, the environment, and various other abiotic and biotic factors.
Those specified however were also specified within the prompt. These are limiting factors because they can limit or help excel the snake population growth, yet in this prompt it is shown to greatly diminish the growth.
Hope this helps!
