What happens when lakes are acidified?

Biology
1 answer:
Dima020 [189]3 years ago
5 0
Lakes that have been acidified cannot support the same variety of life as healthy lakes. As a lake becomes more acidic, crayfish and clam populations are the first to disappear, then various types of fish. Many types of plankton-minute organisms that form the basis of the lake's food chain-are also affected. As fish stocks dwindle, so do populations of loons and other water birds that feed on them. The lakes, however, do not become totally dead. Some life forms actually benefit from the increased acidity. Lake-bottom plants and mosses, for instance, thrive in acid lakes. So do blackfly larvae.

In the family tree below, people with the recessive trait of attached earlobes
madam [21]

Answer:

C. It is a male with atleast one dominant allele

Explanation:

In the given pedigree, the two normal parents of the generation I have one daughter with the attached earlobe. Since the trait is recessive, the daughter should be homozygous recessive to express the trait. The genotype of the daughter (shaded circle in generation II) is "aa". To have a daughter with "aa" genotype, both the parents should have one copy of "a" allele. So, the genotype of both parents is "Aa".

In generation II, individual A is non-shaded square. Squares represent males in a pedigree. Since its not shaded, it does not have attached earlobe. Both the parents are heterozygous dominant for attached earlobes (Aa x Aa = 1/4 AA : 1/2 Aa : 1/4 aa). The genotype of this individual may be AA or Aa.
