Answer:

B. cv+cv w+w

Explanation:

Fruit flies have a special nomenclature to write the genotype of individuals.

  • If the mutation is recessive, you have to write it with lowercase letter(s).
  • If the mutation is dominant, you have to write it with capital letter(s).
  • Wild-type alleles are indicated with a superscript plus (+).

In this problem, both crossveinless (cv) and white (w) mutations are recessive.

<u>For that reason, a heterozygous individual's genotype for both genes will be written as:</u>

<h2>cv⁺ cv  w⁺ w</h2>

By means of an example , explain how poaching leads to over utilisation of species.
Daniel [21]
Poaching refers to the illegal hunting of wild animals in violation of the laws which regulate hunting of wild animals. Over utilization refers to the exploitation of an animal to the point of extinction. Poaching activities include hunting and killing wild animals without licence, using illegal weapons to kill animals, killing animal out of season, etc. All these activities can lead to drastic reduction in the population of animal specie to the extent that the animals become extinct. A good example of an over utilized animal specie is passenger pigeon.
