Using a slow- and fast-growing variant of bamboo, Wei and colleagues looked at cell division, growth, and gene expression (through transcriptomics, which measures all the genes being expressed by an individual) to discover which genes may be responsible for fast growth in bamboo. They found that the slow-growing variant had reduced expression of genes relating to cell wall construction, the plant hormone auxin (important for cell growth and cell division), and had irregular cell growth and cell walls. Wei and colleagues suggest that a reduced ability to produce and perceive auxin, combined with a weakened cell wall, are responsible for the slow growth seen in the bamboo variant.
For both continental and ocean-floor topography, gentler slopes are represented by widely spaced lines while steeper slopes are represented by closely spaced lines.
Explanation:
The contour lines are one of the main, and one of the most used methods on the maps for representing the topography. Basically, the contour lines are closed lines that connect dots on the same elevation. It may sound very simple, but they do provide good insight into the topography, especially if the reader of the map knows how to interpret them well.
The contour lines are used both for continental and ocean-floor topography. The rules are the same for both, including the representation of the slopes. When a slope is gentler, the contour lines are more widely spaced. When a slope is steeper, the contour lines are much more closely spaced.
Some elements of the contour lines or that go with them to give better representation are:
- black dots (representing a top)
- thicker lines (every fifth, so that the counting is faster and easier)
- small lines with given direction (representing cliffs or highly steep slopes)
- numbers (providing information about elevation)

Answer:
a. all tall
Explanation:
If genotypically one of the parents is homozygous dominant and another one is heterozygous for plant height then phenotypically all their progeny will be tall.
Let us suppose, 'T' represents dominant allele and 't' represents recessive allele. Then the genotype of one parent who is homozygous dominant will be TT and genotype of another parent who is heterozygous will be Tt.
The cross is depicted in the attachment.
Here it may also be noted that genotypically two of the progeny will be homozygous dominant while two of the progeny will be heterozygous but phenotypically all the progeny will be 'tall'.
Answer:
the dark moths
Explanation:
only the dark survived cause the tree trunks where covered in black stuff from the polution of the industries
