The sun provides the most energy in the ecosystem
<span>If the parents are both heterozygous for </span><span>particular traits their genotype would be: AaBb x AaBb ( this cross would be the F1 generation while the P generation is the one that originated the parents).
This cross would result in the folowing genotypes:
AABB
AaBB
Aabb
aaBB
aaBb
aabb
Dominant for A and B: 9/16
Dominant for A but recessive for B: 3/16
Recessive for A but dominant for B: 3/16
Recessive for A and B: 1/16
ratio: 9:3:3:1
To answer you the possible phenotypes is difficult because your question is missing information about what each gene does, but I know it would be 4 different phenotypes.

Correct answer: D). Energy decreases from bottom to top because some is used at each level for life processes.
The pyramid of matter and energy in the ecosystem tells that when energy flows from one trophic level to another trophic level, then some amount of energy is always lost as a heat, which is lost to the atmosphere and it never comes back.
Therefore the primary consumers obtain 10% of energy from the autotrophs and secondary consumers get 1% of energy and that of tertiary consumers get 0.1%. It shows that top consumers receive the least energy. It is also called as10% law.
