The question is incomplete and the complete question is
Suppose that ear length in rabbits is controlled by two additive genes, each of which has two alleles. A true-breeding female (aabb) with 6-cm ears is mated to a true-breeding male (AABB) with 16-cm ears.
Answer:
AABb or AaBB
Explanation:
We know that,
aabb genotype - 6 cm
AABB genotype- 16-cm
To calculate the length of earlobe contributed by each allele in a genotype is :
1. length of aabb/4 or 6/4= 1.5 cm (a and b contribute for 1.5 cm each)
2. Length of AABB/4 or 16/4= 4 cm (A and B contribute for 4 cm each)
Now to have the earlobe to be 13.5 cm long then the genotype must be
13.5 = 4+4+4+1.5 or A+A+B+b or A+a+B+B
Therefore, the genotype will be-either AABb or AaBB
Fossils are the remains or impression of the dead animals and plants that lived in the past.
Answer:
The surface area of the cell increases to volume ratio
Explanation:
As a cell grows, the surface area of the cell increases to volume ratio. When cell division occurs, the surface area is distributed and each daughter cell have less surface area but with the passage of time, the surface area increases. The main function of mitosis is to increase the population of the cell, the cell must be divided into two daughter cells in the process of mitosis. Tumors occurs when the process of mitosis is uncontrollable. One observation that is found interesting while looking at the onion root tip cells is the multiplication of the cells by the process of mitosis.
The statement “This type of evidence can be checked by others” best explains the importance of empirical evidence in science.
Explanation:
There are all kinds of evidence used in science, but empirical evidence is obtained as a result of <u>repeated experiments and observations</u>. This evidence is used to either support or argue against a scientific theory. Empirical evidence is the preferred evidence since this kind of evidence can be peer reviewed, i.e. reviewed by other scientists and/or researchers. In other words, the experiment can be redone, and the <u>evidence can be tested</u>.
