If the two alleles are different, the plant is said to be a hybrid or heterogeneous for that traits. As Mendel noted, when both alleles are present, one allele masks or hides the other. The stronger allele is said to dominant, and the weaker allele that is masksed is said to be recessive.

Altruistic behavior a. is that which benefits others while causing a disadvantage to the individual. b. is not a beneficial evol

Maksim231197 [3]

The correct answer is A. Is that which benefits others while causing a disadvantage to the individual.

Explanation:

In biology, altruistic behavior occurs as one organism actions benefit other organisms either because these actions increase the reproductive fitness or the chances an organism survives and prevails over time. Additionally, altruistic behavior implies there is a disadvantage for the organisms acting in the benefit of others. For example, wolves or similar animals take food to those that did not participate in hunting, which means they help other wolves to survive on their own cost as this means less food for those that hunted. According to this, altruistic behavior "is that which benefits others while causing a disadvantage to the individual".
