Compare the stucture of a food web with a food chain
zvonat [6]

 food chain:The simplest representation of energy in a community. At the base is energy stored in plants, which are eaten by small organisms, which in turn are eaten by progressively larger organisms; the food chain is an oversimplification in that most animals do not eat only one type of organism.  

------------------  

food web:the interconnected feeding relationships in an ecosystem. These relationships can be complex; some organisms may feed on more than one trophic level, or changes may occur depending on a species' life history stages or the availability of food.

6. What is the kidney's function?…
Natalka [10]

Answer:

<em>The kidneys act as very efficient filters for ridding the body of waste and toxic substances, and returning vitamins, amino acids, glucose, hormones and other vital substances into the bloodstream.

It is usually possible through direct ingestion of helminth eggs, but it can also occur in a usual infestation (teniasis). It is an endemic condition in several countries in South America, Africa and Asia, accounting for about 29% of the causes of secondary epilepsy in these locations.

In lizards, the gene for color and the gene for pattern are located on the same chromosome and exhibit recombination. The lined
Molodets [167]

Answer:

The all possible gametic haplotypes that can be made are described below.

Explanation:

According to the question, F1 progeny was produced by crossing a homozygous dominant parent with a homozygous recessive parent. As per the question, cross is to be made with a heterozygous parent, which will have solid unpatterned allele and blue colour with a homozygous recessive i.e lined, aqua lizard.

The possible haploid gametes for the heterozygous parent would be BL, bl, Bl, bL and for homozygous parent would be all bl.

A plant contains the alleles Gg for green pod
Viefleur [7K]

Given:

Allele for green pod colour = Gg (Heterozygous)

Allele for Yellow pod colour = gg (Homozygous)

Explanation:

Parents: Gg x   gg

When this two parent are crossed, it leads to the following F1 generation (off springs):

<em>• Gg (green colour pod) </em>

<em>• Gg (Green colour pod) </em>

<em>• gg (Yellow colour pod) </em>

<em>• gg (Yellow colour pod) </em>

Form the produced offspring it can be inferred that the allele combination for green colour pod is Gg. Among the four off springs obtained 2/4 are green colour pod and 2/4 are yellow colour pod.
