An interesting observation made by the firefighters was that some parts of the forest seemed to escape the flames. The crown fir

e would drop down into a ground fire in these areas, and then jump back up into the canopy as the fire burned into adjacent areas. They observed that many of these areas had previously been thinned, which means that some of the trees were cut down and hauled away to be used as timber. In other areas, thinned forests burned with as much severity as the unthinned forest. Your objective is to design an observational study to help answer the question: What was the determining factor for areas that escaped the worst impacts of the fire, compared to areas that were severely burned?

Answer:

According to the previous observational study it is possible to notice that thinning determined in great way the rate of trees that survived the fire.

Explanation:

In general the trees that had been previously cut, were the ones that presented more resistance to the fire, while the trees that had not been thinned were the ones that were severely affected in the spreading conflagration. Reason why in comparison of these two samples, it would be possible to conclude that previously cutting down trees can survive better to the spreading fire.

During which process do alleles undergo segregation?
Svetlanka [38]

Alleles undergo segregation is present in the mitosis. The answer is B. The first stage is prophase. The nucleolus disappears and the two centrosomes begin to form the mitotic spindle. The spindle xtends between two opposite poles f the cell. Next is the metaphase. The centromeres of the chromatid pairs align at the center of the miotic spindle. Then anaphase, the centromeres will split that separates the chromatid pair. In here, alleles are formed. They are now called chromosomes. The last phase is the telophase. The chromosomes will then form a thread-like chromatin and for ache envelope, a nucleoli appears.
