That question, this incomplete. The full question is:

3. Three redwood trees are kept at different humidity levels inside a greenhouse for 12 weeks. One tree is left outside in normal conditions. The heights of the trees are measured once a week. What are the dependent variables, independent and the controlled variable of this experiment?

Answer:

Independent variable: different humidity levels
Dependent variable: the heights of the trees
controlled variable: the types of trees

Explanation:

An independent variable is one that exerts an influence within the experiment and can be measured, acting on other elements to promote the observation of a result. As the experiment seeks to observe the influence of humidity on the height of the tree, we can say that humidity is the independent variable.

Dependent variable is that which is influenced by the independent variable to generate a result that can be observed, can also be measured. As the experiment wishes to analyze how the height of the trees was affected by the level of humidity, we can say that the height of the trees is the dependent variable.

Controlled variable is that which is present in the experiment in a constant and equal way, cannot be measured. This variable is the type of trees.

Red blood cells that are bathed in blood neither shrink nor swell and burst. If the concentration of blood is 0.5 M, what could

natima [27]

<span> If the concentration of blood is 0.5 M, and red blood cells that are bathed in blood neither shrink nor swell and burst, the concentration of cytoplasm of RBCs is A. 0.5m. An isotonic solution refers to two solutions that have the same water concentration on both sides of a membrane. So, cells in isotonic solution have the same water concentration as the isotonic solution and thus they will neither shrink nor swell and burst. If the concentration of blood is 0.5 M, the concentration of RBC cytoplasm must be the same (0.5 M).</span>

What are some of the posible signals of male quality in widowbirds and what information might they convey? What are the females

daser333 [38]

Male produces signals of bright red, yellow epaulets and long tails.

Males produce bright red and yellow epaulets as well as chevrons on their wings. These bright epaulets attracts the female of this species and helps in the sexual activity of widowbird species.

The males of several widowbird species also grow long tail feathers about half a meter in length. The long tail is favored by sexual selection through female choice of mates. Female prefer long tails red-collared widowbird so we can conclude that male produces signals of bright red, yellow epaulets and long tails.

1. A couple of mice with brown fur and black eyes had litter with the following distribution of traits: 9 with brown fur and bla

Ierofanga [76]

Answer:

The genotype of the couple of mice is heterozygous.

Explanation:

First, we going to classify each trait as dominant or recessive allele:

Brown fur: It’s a dominant allele because 12 of 16 mice have brown fur, therefore 75% of the litter have this trait.

Black eyes: It’s a dominant allele because 12 of 16 mice have black eyes, therefore 75% of the litter have this attribute.

Grey fur: It’s a recessive allele because only 4 of 16 mice have this trait, so 25% of the litter have grey fur.

Red eyes: It’s a recessive allele because 4 of 16 mice have red eyes, so 25% of the litter show this trait.

Second, we going to name each phenotype with a letter and use a capital letter for dominant allele or a small letter for recessive allele.

For the color of the fur, let’s use letter “F”:

F: Brown fur

f: Grey fur

For the color of the eyes, let’s use letter “E”:

E: Black eyes

e: Red eyes

The genotype of each phenotype is conformed by two letters that indicates, the recessive allele is showed in the phenotype only when both letters in the genotype are small letter.

For example, for fur, there are three combinations:

FF: Brown fur (two dominant alleles)

Ff: Brown fur (A dominant allele and a recessive allele)

ff: Grey fur (Two recessive alleles)

For eyes, there are also three combinations:

EE: Black eyes (two dominant alleles) (

Ee: Black eyes (A dominant allele and a recessive allele)

ee: Red eyes (Two recessive alleles)

When both allele of the genotype are dominant or recessive, it is heterozygous, if there are a dominant allele and a recessive one, it is a homozygous.

Since there are 7 mice that show recessive phenotype, that means the genotype of the couple of mice are heterozygous. Although, both mice show a dominant phenotype, the genotype have a dominant allele and a recessive allele.

The genotype for the couple of mice is:

FfEe x FfEe

So, when we apply the Mendel's third law, we got the results showed in the chart.
