Answer:

Density is nearly 3 cabs per hectare

Explanation:

Given -

There are three three intertidal regions.

Area of each intertidal region is 2 hectares.

Number of crab in the intertidal regions are as follows -

Intertidal region I - 7

Intertidal region I - 2

Intertidal region I - 6

Sum of crabs in all three regions is equal to

7 + 2+ 6\\= 15

Total area of all three intertidal regions is equal to

2 + 2+ 2\\= 6 hectares

Now density per hectare is equal to total population of crab divided by total area of all the three intertidal regions

Density = \frac{15}{6} \\= 2.5

Density is nearly 3 cabs per hectare

Can people with different parents still have traits in common?
nirvana33 [79]
Technically, they can but you don't have to be related because you can have things in common with another person with are personality traits , and if they have different skin colors it doesn't matter , and you can still have many traits in common , because my sister is darker than me a lot but we still share same traits.

What does it mean when a trait is independent from another trait? Give one example.
coldgirl [10]

Answer:

It means one trait does not influence the expression of the other. Example is given in the explanation section.

Explanation:

A trait is the phenotypic characteristics an organism possesses. It is determined and controlled by genes. According to Mendel, an organism receives two forms of every gene called ALLELE. Each allele of a gene encodes a different trait.

Mendel, in his law of independent assortment stated that the inheritance of a trait encoded by the alleles of one gene does not influence the inheritance of another trait encoded by the alleles of another gene. A trait is said to be independent of another if it doesn't influence the expression of the other trait.

An example is the seed colour and seed shape trait in a plant. The seed colour trait is encoded by a certain gene and its expression and inheritance is independent of the seed shape trait encoded by another gene.
