Complete question:

Question: When crossing two individuals, the offspring display only one of the two traits found in parents. Which principle of Mendelian genetics is supported by this observation?

a) segregation

b) independent assortment

c) dominance and recessiveness

d) allele frequency

Answer:

c) dominance and recessiveness

Explanation:

According to Mendel's principle of dominance and recessiveness, the alleles of one gene may be dominant or recessive in nature. When present together, only the dominant allele is able to express itself. Therefore, a hybrid individual for a gene would express only the dominant phenotype. In the given cross, the progeny express only one of the two traits found in the parents. This means that the progeny is heterozygous for the trait and is expressing the dominant trait. The recessive trait is not expressed due to the presence of the allele for the dominant trait.

Why are decomposers and detritivores essential parts of all food webs?
Vinil7 [7]

Answer: Detritivores improve the nutritional value and the texture of the soil: This makes the soil productive to plant life which translates to availability of food for the herbivores and carnivores like human beings. They however do not complete the energy cycle as their wastes are energy products that need to be decayed.

Decomposers help in converting the leftovers of animals and plants to useful substances for other living organisms. They are mainly bacteria and fungi. Have you ever wondered what would happen if the decomposers and consumers were not in the ecosystem?

Detritivores play a very important in the cycle as they are the consumers of dead leaves, old skin, carcasses and manure. They include millipedes, earthworms and slugs that feed on dead plants and animals but leave some parts and their feces that are converted to energy by the decomposers. Players in the energy cycle function hand in hand, a decomposer is found at the lowest part of the cycle as it deals with the remains. They complete the energy cycle. The roles of the decomposers and detritivores almost coincide.

Hope this helps !!! Good luck !!! ;)
