A biologist conducts an experiment by releasing 50 Dd parrots on a remote tropical island, Alpha. On another remote island, call

ed Beta, she releases 25 DD parrots and 25 dd parrots. What is the most likely description of the parrot populations after several generations? Assume random mating and equal chances of survival for all genotypes.

Explanation:

On island A,

Parrots with Dd were released therefore these will mate with each other and will produce:

                          Dd   x Dd

                        D         d

              D     <em>DD        Dd</em>

             d     <em>Dd          dd</em>

Therefore, 25% DD, 50% Dd and 25% dd genotype parrot offspings will be produced.

On island B, parrots with DD and dd were released, therefore they will mate and will produce,

                       DD  x   dd

1.                 D             D

       d   <em>   Dd          Dd</em>

        d      <em>Dd          Dd</em>

2.              DD   x     DD

               D            D

    D         <em>DD         DD</em>

    D         <em>DD         DD</em>

3.               dd   x dd

                  d      d

         d     <em> dd   dd</em>

          d    <em> dd   dd</em>

This shows that there is a possibility on island A where 25% DD, 50% Dd and 25% dd genotype parrot offsprings will be produced whereas on island B, chances are almost equal as all three genotype parrot offsprings can be produced but the percentage could vary.

Alexxandr [17]
One consequence of CFCS pollution is increased rates of skin cancer in humans. 
Cholofluorocarbons cause the breakdown of the ozone layer that protects the earth from the sun's ultraviolet radiation. Once in the atmosphere, CFCs drift slowly upward to the stratosphere, where they are brojken up by ultraviolet radiation, releasing the chlorine that catalytically destroys ozone.

What is present in the soil that makes nitrogen<br> directly available to plants?
lubasha [3.4K]
In order for plants to assimilate nitrogen directly into their system, the nitrogen must be in the form of nitrates. Nitrogen in the air and ammonia from decayed matter in the soil is converted to ammonium by decomposers and nitrogen-fixing bacteria. The ammonium is further nitrified to nitrates by nitrifying bacteria. Finally, the nitrates can then absorbed by the plants.
