user100 [1]3 years ago
3 0
<span>The answer is  Due to heating of the air by the engine exhaust. Contrails are formed when the hot exhaust of the plane engines is rapidly cooled by the cold air in the upper atmosphere. The water vapor in the engine exhaust, formed in the combustion of fuel, freezes immediately to ice crystals due to the low pressure and -36oC  temperatures in the 8000 m altitude in which the planes cruise. </span>

In mice, the allele for black fur is dominant to the allele for brown fur. a male homozygous black mouse is crossed with a femal
Darina [25.2K]
B- black allele;
b- brown allele;

The parental cross is true-breeding because both the male and the female are homo zygotes, so: BBx bb

The F1 generation will be all black heterozygote: Bb
The F2 generation will be between mice of the F1 generation and they all have the same genotype:Bb xBb
In this cross it would result in:
 1/4 of the plants being black homozygote-BB 25%
2/4 of the plants being black heterozygote- Bb- 50%
1/4 of the plants being  brown homozygote- bb- 25%
answer: 25%+25%=50%  are homozygotes

Which change in a limiting factor would increase the carrying capacity for american pikas in a talus field within an alpine tund
shusha [124]

Answer: B) decrease in number of rock fragments

Explanation:

Carrying capacity is the maximum size of the population of a species that an ecosystem can handle based on the availability of resources.

A limited factor is the factor that can be an abiotic or biotic agent is likely to affect the life of the living being.

American pikas are the small rodent-like mammals. These animals are short and stout. They have big, round ears and do not have tails. They have a brown and black coloration which helps them to hide behind the rocks and camouflage the predators.

Here, the decreased in rock fragments is a limiting factor which will increase the carrying capacity of American pikas. Due to lack of rock fragments, the American pikas will not be able to hide from predators and they will die. The size of the population will become by the supportive carrying capacity.
