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.

[04.01] which best describes the difference between radiation and conduction?
Svetradugi [14.3K]
In radiation, we don't need medium to conduct heat or energy but in conduction we need medium to conduct energy or heat ! conduction is done by contact as in radiation there is no contact !

for example or any info, comment !

What do you think really happened to the people of easter island?
BaLLatris [955]
Easter Island is a small 63-square-mile patch of land — more than a thousand miles from the next inhabited spot in the Pacific Ocean. In A.D. 1200 (or thereabouts), a small group of Polynesians — it might have been a single family — made their way there, settled in and began to farm. When they arrived, the place was covered with trees — as many as 16 million of them, some towering 100 feet high.

These settlers were farmers, practicing slash-and-burn agriculture, so they burned down woods, opened spaces, and began to multiply. Pretty soon the island had too many people, too few trees, and then, in only a few generations, no trees at all.

What cell parts are common to all of these cells?<br><br> Use complete sentences.
Natalka [10]

Answer:

<em>between </em><em>an </em><em>animal</em><em> </em><em>cell </em><em>and </em><em>a </em><em>plant </em><em>cell </em><em>there </em><em>are </em><em>some </em><em>parts </em><em>that</em><em> </em><em>are </em><em>similar</em><em> </em><em>and </em><em>carry </em><em>out </em><em>the </em><em>same </em><em>function </em><em>like:</em>

<em>both </em><em>have </em><em>a </em><em>cell </em><em>membrane</em><em> </em><em>which </em><em>selects </em><em>what </em><em>goes </em><em>in </em><em>the </em><em>cell.</em>

<em>both </em><em>have </em><em>cytoplasm</em><em> </em><em>which </em><em>holds </em><em>the </em><em>protoplasm(</em><em>the </em><em>living</em><em> </em><em>part </em><em>of </em><em>the </em><em>cell)</em>

<em>both </em><em>have </em><em>a </em><em>nucleus</em><em> </em><em>which </em><em>carries </em><em>out </em><em>all </em><em>cell </em><em>activities</em><em> </em><em>and </em><em>holds </em><em>threads </em><em>of </em><em>DNA </em><em>called </em><em>chromosomes</em>

<em>both </em><em>have </em><em>a </em><em>mitochondria</em><em> </em><em>which </em><em>is </em><em>the </em><em>power </em><em>house</em><em> </em><em>of </em><em>the </em><em>cell</em>

<em>both </em><em>have </em><em>golgi </em><em>bodies </em><em>which </em><em>modify</em><em> </em><em>and </em><em>carry </em><em>proteins</em><em> </em><em>from </em><em>sites </em><em>of </em><em>synthesis</em><em> </em><em>to </em><em>sites </em><em>of </em><em>reaction</em>

<em>I </em><em>hope</em><em> this</em><em> helps</em>
