According to the National Institute of Health, different diseases can block the bile ducts and cause a problem with the flow of

bile. Gallstones are one of the most common causes of blocked bile ducts. Blocked bile ducts may also result from infection, cancer or internal scar tissue. Scarring can block the bile ducts, which can lead to liver failure. Based on the passage above, describe how blocked bile ducts would adversely affect digestion. In your answer be sure to describe the path that bile takes after leaving the liver.

Blocked bile ducts would adversely affect digestion because it mostly passes through the digestive system. Bile is an important part of the body that is secreted by the liver to help the body digest fats. The bile ducts carry bile from the liver and gallbladder towards the pancreas and towards the duodenum, which is a part of the small intestine.

Nadya [2.5K]
The correct answer is - the release of methane from thawed permafrost.

In the past decade it has been noticed that the levels of methane are increasing in the atmosphere, and the biggest ''producer'' of this methane is the melting permafrost. There's huge amounts of methane trapped underground bellow the permafrost. But the permafrost is melting because of the global worming, so the methane is free to come out and go up in the atmosphere.

Two true-breeding stocks of pea plants are crossed. one parent has red, axial flowers and theother has white, terminal flowers;
xxTIMURxx [149]
This is a typical case of a dihybrid cross. 
From the phenotype of the offspring, we can conclude that the gene for the red color of the flower and the gene for the axial position of the flower are dominant.
Since we know that the ratio of phenotypes in a dihybrid cross of independently inherited alleles is
9(dominant for both traits)
3(dominant for one trait, recessive for the other)
3(dominant for the second trait, recessive for the other)
1(recessive for both traits)
we can expect 3/16 of the f2 generation to be dominamt for one trait and recessive for the other (red, terminal flowers), or to be precise 190 individuals.
