The answer is A. Rabbits eat grass. The snakes eat the rabbits and the hawks eat the snakes. So if rabbits died off, so would the snakes, and the hawks. Because both of their food sources would deplete. And grass would flourish.

Write a paragraph on testing probability

VashaNatasha [74]

Explanation:

Probabilities are described as ratios of favorable event outcome to the total number of event outcomes.

This is written as...

$P (E) =\frac{n(E)}{n(S)} \\$

where...

E= the number of times the event occurs

S= the number of trials

In biology experiments, hypotheses are formed based on research questions, and tested with the use of variables to provide a particular outcome. Statistics allows for testing data for consistency with the hypothesis, while statistical probability testing can be used in experiments to determine a range of outcomes, from genetic inheritance, evolutionary rates to theoretical experimental results.

In these statistical models, probability distributions are functions that give probabilities for certain event outcomes within an experiment (a set of trials). These may be either continuous, taking a value within a range of two numbers; or discrete, which may be either of two specified values. Discrete probability distributions list each value that a random variable may possibly take on.

Further Explanation:

For example, two types of probability distributions are employed in experimental biology:

Binomial distributions, which are discrete distributions, provide probability of a certain number of successful events for x a random variable, in a specific number of trials, n; here, the probability of success of an individual trial is constant at P and only one of two outcomes are possible- this is sampling with replacement.

where...

b(x; n, P)-the probability that an experiment of n trials results in x successes

nCx- the number of combinations of n things at r time

$b(x; n, P) = [ nCx ]* P^{x} * (1-P)^{n-x}\\$

<em>This is often used in determining potential outcomes before data collection.</em>

A type of continuous distribution, the student's t-test, compares standard deviations and means from two sets of samples or groups to check for significant differences between them.

$t= \frac{(x_{1} - x_{2}) }{\sqrt{(\frac{(S_{1}) ^{2} }{n1} }+ (\frac{(S_{2}) ^{2} }{n2 }}$

where...

x1 and s1 are the mean and standard deviation of sample 1 respectively
x2 and s2 are the mean and standard deviation of sample 1 respectively
n1 and n2 are sample sizes in samples 1 and 2 respectively

The null and alternate hypotheses typically theorize the likelihood and significance of certain event outcome probabilities. Critical values of t, along with degrees of freedom are used to determine a range of probable outcomes; probability or p- values along with this range, are used to determine whether either hypothesis is rejected or accepted.

<em>For instance, significant differences between an experimental control and a specific treatment group would show that these occurrences are not due to sampling errors or random chance...</em>

The inheritance of eye color in Drosophila is controlled by genes on each of the fly's four chromosome pairs. One eye-color gene

algol [13]

Answer:

F1 Females - all wild type

F1 Males - all wild type

F2 Females - - all wild type

F2 Males - 1/2 wild type, 1/2 vermilion

Explanation:

The wild-type allele (Xᵛ⁺) is dominant over vermilion (Xᵛ), which is a sex-linked trait.

Female flies have two X chromosomes, male flies have one X and one Y chromosome.

A homozygous wild-type female fly (Xᵛ⁺Xᵛ⁺) is mated with a vermilion male fly (XᵛY).

The female parent can only produce Xᵛ⁺ gametes.

The male parent can produce either Xᵛ or Y gametes.

When gametes from both parents fuse, the F1 offspring will have the genotypes Xᵛ⁺Xᵛ (females with wild type eyes) and Xᵛ⁺Y (males with wild type eyes).

The F1 females can produce Xᵛ⁺ and Xᵛ gametes. The F1 males can produce Xᵛ⁺ and Y gametes.

When the F1 individuals interbreed, the gametes combine to give rise to the F2 offspring. The possible combination of gametes that will give the different genotypes and phenotypes in the F2 are:

Xᵛ⁺Xᵛ⁺ females with wild type eyes
Xᵛ⁺ Y males with wild type eyes
Xᵛ Xᵛ⁺ females with wild type eyes
Xᵛ Y males with vermilion eyes
