Based on observations of natural phenomena is it a scientific theory

Biology

You would need more than natural phenomena for a scientific theory because a theory is a proposed explanation whose status is still conjectural and subject to experimentation, in contrast to well-established propositions that are regarded as reporting matters of actual fact.

How would you identify a floodplain that has not been immersed for a long time?
ELEN [110]

Answer:

Floodplains are identified as zones on FEMA Flood Insurance Rate Maps (FIRMs). Flood zones are defined by type, depth, and frequency of flooding. But the shape and nature of a floodplain may also change over time as the main channel of a river naturally migrates through erosion and accretion, impacting how and where excess water may first over top the banks of the river during a flood event. Geologically ancient floodplains are often represented in the landscape by fluvial terraces. These are old floodplains that remain relatively high above the present floodplain and indicate former courses of a stream. I HOPE THIS HELPS YOU :)

A marine ecologist has constructed the conceptual model shown in the diagram. Which prediction can be made from using this model
kari74 [83]

Hello. This question is incomplete. You forgot to put the diagram and answer options.

The diagram is in the figure attached below and the answer options are:

Where the tertiary consumers get their energy

How often primary producers are able to reproduce

When bacteria and fungi initiate the process of decomposition

 Whether other secondary consumers are present

Answer:

Where the tertiary consumers get their energy

Explanation:

The diagram establishes the visualization of a food network where it is possible to visualize all the relationships between predators and game, in addition to being possible to observe the relationships between each trophy within a food chain.

With this, it is possible to determine all the ways that tertiary consumers are able to obtain energy and observe how that energy reached them.

When Mendel crossed a true-breeding purple-flowered pea plant with a true-breeding white-flowered pea plant, he observed that al
ArbitrLikvidat [17]

Answer:

When the purple progeny are selfed, both white and purple progeny result.

Explanation:

Mendel performed a monohybrid cross i.e. one which involves a single gene or character. This gene which Mendel called factor codes for flower colour in peas. After crossing the pea that produced purple flowers only i.e. homozygous (PP) with one that produces white flowers only i.e. homozygous (pp), he obtained a F1 offspring that has all purple flowers.

This observation led him to his law of dominance, where he stated that an allele is capable of masking the expression of another allele in the heterozygous. Mendel called the allele that masks the DOMINANT allele while the allele being masked, RECESSIVE allele. He then self-crossed the purple F1 offsprings to produce a F2 offsprings with a 3Purple: 1White phenotypic ratio.

This observation led him to propose the law of segregation, which states that the alleles of a gene will separate into gametes during gamete formation. Hence, this showed that the alleles for white colour of flower were present in the F1 offsprings but were phenotypically masked. They were later expressed in the F2 offsprings.

In a nutshell, the F1 offsprings produced were in a heterozygous state i.e combination of alternative forms of alleles (Pp). This alleles were separated into gametes during meiosis. This supports Mendel's conclusion that each F1 progeny contains two alternative forms of the flower colour gene.
