0:3:1

Explanation:

Tasters have the dominant allele for the itter taste of PTC, they can be homozygous TT and heterozygous Tt.

Non-tasters are supposed as autosomal recessive characters

they are homozygous recessive tt when expressed

Given in the equation two heterozygotes parents would produce offspring with the trait in the following ratio.

Tt (parent 1)

Tt (parent 2)

 If a punnet square is made

    T      t

T  TT    Tt

t    Tt     tt

The phenotypic character is in the ratio of 0:3:1

There will be 25% chances of recessive trait of non-tasters in the progeny of heterozygous parents.

By means of an example , explain how poaching leads to over utilisation of species.
Daniel [21]
Poaching refers to the illegal hunting of wild animals in violation of the laws which regulate hunting of wild animals. Over utilization refers to the exploitation of an animal to the point of extinction. Poaching activities include hunting and killing wild animals without licence, using illegal weapons to kill animals, killing animal out of season, etc. All these activities can lead to drastic reduction in the population of animal specie to the extent that the animals become extinct. A good example of an over utilized animal specie is passenger pigeon.

1) The process arrow A represents is photosynthesis.

2) Arrow A represents light energy transformation. Light energy from the sun is converted into chemical energy in plants.

3) Photosynthesis is part of a carbon recycling process in the carbon cycle. Plants absorb light energy and convert it to chemical energy. Plants absorb carbon dioxide which is exhaled by humans and animals. Plants then produce oxygen which is absorbed by humans and animals. Animals also eat plants thus passing the carbon compounds along.

I hope this makes sense. Hope this helps! :)
