Answer:

A.

Explanation:

Predators hunt prey. (Obviously). As such, they help control the population of that particular prey-species. If the predator species is removed from the equation, 2 times are changed. Long term & short term. Long term includes lower populations due to lack of resources. Short term includes overpopulation due to lack of threat.

Why did the author use the word nymph instead of larva when describing the cicada’s life cycle?
Blizzard [7]
Because a Larva changes form drastically and a Nyphm doesn’t change very much from birth just like cicadas

Definition of Nyphm: an immature form of an insect that does not change greatly as it grows, e.g. a dragonfly, mayfly, or locust.

Mendel used single gene (or monohybrid) experiments to describe his law of segregation. He used _______ characters (or dihybrid)
allochka39001 [22]

Answer:

Law of Independent assortment

Explanation:

Gregor Mendel, who was regarded the father of Genetics, discovered principles that governs inheritance in his experiments. He discovered that the alleles of a gene will separate into gametes when he performed a crossed involving a single gene or character like height, pea color etc. He proposed his law of segregation based on this.

However, he considered two characters or genes in his cross, which he called a DIHYBRID cross. He discovered that the alleles of each different gene separates into gametes independently of one another i.e. without one gene influencing the other in each gamete. He called this principle his LAW OF INDEPENDENT ASSORTMENT.

He obtained a 9:3:3:1 phenotypic ratio for the F2 dihybrid offsprings which is only possible if each gamete equally likely contains two alleles of the two different genes in different combinations.
