It is sometimes observed that offspring do not resemble their parents for a particular character, even though the character vari

es in the population. Suppose this were the case for beak depth in the medium ground finch.What would the plot of offspring beak depth against parental beak depth look like?

Answer:

Explained below

Explanation:

Sometimes offspring do not resembles their parents because of variation, so these character varies in population. When Darwin went to Galapagos Islands, he observed an amazing diversity of characters. He realized that there were many varieties of finches in the same island. He collected two sets of parent offspring data in two different years. Most of the parents who captured before their beak depth were known then he captured offspring with fledged and measured their beak depth. He calculated average beak depth of two parents and then compared with offspring beak depth.

Generally describe what forces ultimately shaped the earth into its modern form
Trava [24]

The force of gravity is a major force that created the earth.  As rocks and ice clumped together as they spun around the newly formed star (sun), the force of gravitational pull increased and attracted more debris (rocks and ice). The clumps of rocks, debris, and ice, therefore, grew into a planet.  

Another is electromagnetic force. The spinning currents in the outer core of the earth create a dynamo effect that forms a magnetic field around the earth. This shields the earth from the solar storms of the sun hence protects life and the atmosphere.

Weak nuclear force is responsible for maintaining the heat of the earth’s interior which is critical for maintaining the dynamo  effect of the outer core so the earth is protected by its magnetic field.

In a food chain 200 kg of wheat is fed on by 18 kg of mice which in turn are eaten by 1kg of hawk. What is the percentage energy
Nikolay [14]

Answer:

0.1% of energy

Explanation:

Energy flow: From the whole quantity of energy that reaches the earth's surface, autotroph organisms or producers absorb only 0.1 or 1%.

From the input of solar energy begins a unidirectional energy flow through all the organisms in the ecosystem, from autotrophs to heterotrophs, until it is dissipated in the environment.  

At each trophic level occurs an energy transfer to the next, with only 10% being usable in each of them. This assessment is called "The 10% rule". As a general rule, only about 10% of the energy stored as biomass at one trophic level, per unit time, ends up as biomass at the next trophic level, in the same unit of time.

If wheat transferred 10% of the energy to mice, and of that 10% mice transferred 10% of the energy to hawk, then the percentage of energy transferred from the first trophic level to the third equals 0.1%.

10% (1st TL-2nd TL) / 10% (2nd TL - 3rd TL) = 0.1% (1stTL - 3rd TL)

<em>TL = Trophic level           </em>
