What is adaptation in animals and plants

Biology
2 answers:
Lerok [7]3 years ago

Adaptation is when a plant or animal make modifications to their body to survive in an altered environment. For example, the snow foxes' fur changes depending on the seasons. Another example would be blueberries. They develop thorns in order to protect the berries the plant grows.
Pretty much all plants adapt. If you pay attention, when you put a plant next to the window, and when there's no sunlight shining on it, you should notice that it will start to lean toward the sun.
Hope I helped!

marta [7]

Answer: This is called Monohybrid Experiment

Explanation: Monohybrid Cross

P Generation TT     *   tt

  Tall plants     Dwarf plants

F1 Generation  

T T

t Tt Tt

t Tt Tt

In F1 generation;

There are 100% Tt Genotype and 100% Tall plant Phenotype

F2 Generation

F1   *   F1

( Tt   *   Tt )

T t

T TT Tt

t Tt tt

In F2 Generation;

Genotype

There are 25% TT (homozygous dominant, tall plants).

50% Tt (heterozygous tall plants), and

25% tt (homozygous recessive dwarf plants).

This is how dwarf characteristics reappear in the second generation.

The Phenotype of F2 generation is 3:1  (Tall : Dwarf)

I have attached a document to this answer to facilitate effective understanding if there is anormalities in arrangement the Punnet Square.

How do I know the phenotype and genotype percentage on a punnet square?
Nesterboy [21]

Answer:

Phenotypes are physical attributes. Genotypes are the alleles.

The phenotypes are 75% green peas and 25% yellow peas. This is because the capital G is a dominant allele and green is the dominant attribute and as long as 1 G is present, then the pea will appear green.

The genotypes are 25% GG, 50% Gg, and 25% gg.

Please thank!
