Answer:

Since albinism is an autosomal recessive trait, it means that both parents must possess the gene for it, for the albinism to occur.

Thus, David could be the father if both Rose and David are carriers(heterozygotes) for the albino allele.

Ivenika [448]

One who researches 'botany' is called a 'botanist'. Botany is one of the world's oldest natural sciences. initially, Botany protected all plant-like organisms inclusive of algae, lichens, ferns, fungi, and mosses in conjunction with actual flowers.

Darwin understood the centrality of development in a deep and profoundly vital manner, both for animals and for flora. His notebooks document his cautious studying and interest in animal embryology and plant leaf and floral organ morphogenesis.

Butterfly-pollinated plants usually have pretty flashy flowers in hues like crimson and purple. these plants do not have the quantity of pollen that bee-attracting flowers do, however they've huge components of nectar to feed the butterflies.
