Answer:
Peat
Explanation:
The decaying plant matter that is found in bogs results in the production of peat. It is not fully decayed by either acidic or inorganic environmental conditions, rather present or composed of wet-land plant life. it is rich in carbon dioxide. It is also an important source of fuel.
Answer:
1/8
Explanation:
Given that the trihybrid parents have AaBbCc genotype for fruit color. The trait is a quantitative trait i.e. each dominant allele will have an additive effect on it. In this case, AaBbCc and AABBCC will not produce same fruit color because AaBbCc has only three loci contributing to the color while in AABBCC all the six loci are contributing to the color. For an offspring to be exactly similar to the AaBbCc parents it should have the same genotype of AaBbCc.
The probability of Aa to come from a cross between Aa and Aa is 2/4 or 1/2
The probability of Bb to come from a cross between Bb and Bb is 2/4 or 1/2
The probability of Cc to come from a cross between Cc and Cc is 2/4 or 1/2
So the collective probability of AaBbCc offspring from a cross between AaBbCc and AaBbCc parents would be=
1/2 * 1/2 * 1/2 = 1/8
Hence, assuming no effects of the environment, 1/8 of the offspring will have the same fruit color phenotype as the trihybrid parent.
A force of 8 N will be required.
<h3><u>Explanation:</u></h3>
Mechanical advantage is defined as the ratio of output force from a system to the input force into the system. A machine which has the mechanical advantage more than 1 means it requires less force to give more force as output. Similarly, when the mechanical advantage for the machine is less than 1,it means more force is required to give to achieve a less one.
Here in the question, the mechanical advantage of the pulley is 2.
Output force required to pull the sack of potatoes upto kitchen is 16N.
Mechanical advantage = Output force / input force.
Or, 2= 16 / input force.
So input force = 
So a force of 8 N will be required to pull the pulley.
The spines of the cactus have several functions, which are the following:
To defend them from possible predators: inside the body of the plants there is a great deal of water; if herbivores could access it, these plants would not survive.
To provide them with shade: it is true that not much, but it is enough so that the loss of water by evaporation is minimal.
Reflect sunlight: many species have white spines.
