<span>The correct answer is A. atoms. Atoms are studied by physics and chemistry, not by ecology. Ecology studies organisms, populations, and the earth in terms of climate, pollution prevention, natural habitats and biomes, and all kinds of similar things that are related to living on earth. Atoms are irrelevant for the study of ecology.</span>
Answer:
3 long tails : 1 short tail
Explanation:
This question involves a single gene coding for tail length in mice. The allele for long tail (T) is dominant over the allele for short tail (t). This means that an heterozygous mice will possess the long tail length.
According to this question, in a cross between two hybrid or heterozygote mice i.e. Tt × Tt, the following gametes will be produced by each parent:
Tt - T and t
Using these gametes in a punnet square (see attached image), the following will be produced: TT, Tt, Tt and tt.
Offsprings with genotype TT, Tt and Tt will have a LONG TAIL while genotype tt will have a SHORT TAIL. Hence, the phenotypic ratio will be 3 long tails : 1 short tail.
Answer:
The correct answer is "the bottleneck effect".
Explanation:
The bottleneck effect, also known as a population bottleneck or genetic bottleneck, is defined as sharp reduction of a species population that occurs either by environmental effects or as a consequence of human activities. The dramatical crash the that population of American bison had due to hunting and other problems is an example of a species suffering the bottleneck effect.
