Answer:

In the absence of decomposers, soil, air, and water would not be replenished, and all the nutrients present would soon get exhausted. Hence, the cyclic process of life and death would be disrupted and life would come to an end.

What is the difference between directional selection and disruptive selection
morpeh [17]
Directional selection is where one phenotype is favored, so an example would be "a population of madagascar hissing cockroaches suffers heavy predation from lizards. Because their heads are small, the lizards are unable to eat the very largest adult cockroaches, and instead prey upon small and medium sized adults, so as a result the large cockroaches are favored and live". 
Meanwhile, disruptive selection is where both extreme phenotypes are favored, an example would be "a population of rabbits can have black fur, white fur or grey fur. This population of rabbits lives in an area of white rocks. When a local volcano erupts, black volcanic rock now dots the landscape amongst the white rocks. Now the black and white rabbits live longer because the black and white spots on the landscape camoflauge them. The two extreme phenotypes are being favored."

nexus9112 [7]

Answer:

The probability of getting a dwarf and pink female is 1/2

Explanation:

In mice, dwarfism is caused by an X-linked recessive allele, and pink coat is caused by an autosomal dominant allele where coats are normally brownish.

A dwarf female from a pure line will have Xd Xd where d represent the  recessive trait and the female is also brownish (pp).

A pink male from a pure line will be XPY where P represent the dominant allele but not a dwarf (D).

            Xd             Xd                            Xp          Xp

XD       XDXd        XDXd             XP    XPXp     XPXp    F1 generation

Y           XdY           XdY                Y     XpY        XpY

P        XDXd   x    XdY                        XPXp    x    XpY

           XD         Xd                               XP              Xp

Xd     XDXd    <u>XdXd</u>                  Xp    <u>XPXp</u>         XpXp         F2 generation

Y        XDY        XdY                   Y       XPY          XpY

The probability of getting a dwarf and pink female is 1/2
