Answer:

25%

Explanation:

This cross involves a single gene coding for spot color in beta fish. Green allele is C while the blue allele is c. This gene exhibits co-dominance, hence, an heterozygote beta fish (Cc) i.e. combination of both alleles, will have both phenotypes expressed to form a green and blue spotted beta fish.

If two green and blue spotted beta fishes (Cc) are crossed, each beta fish will produce gametes with C and c alleles. Using these gametes in a punnet square, four possible offsprings with the following genotypes will be produced: CC, Cc, Cc and cc.

C c

C CC Cc

c Cc cc

Hence, the percentage of offsprings expected to be green (CC genotype) is 1 out of 4possible offsprings i.e. 1/4 × 100 = 25%

White raven [17]

Answer: c. alluvial fan.

A wide sloping deposit of sediment formed where a stream leaves a mountain range is called an alluvial fan. An alluvial fan is the deposition of sediment on a landform like mountain. It forms as an open fan or cone of sediment. The sediments are left by natural drainage system like river on the landform.

There are two types of alluvial fans.

1. Debris dominated: These includes viscous mixture of water, mud, gravel along with woody debris. This transfer large boulders of landform soil.

2. Floodwater dominated: Water will spill in the alluvial fan in the form of thin sheets. This can transfer fine particles of landform soil.
