A scientist places 8 pairs of beetles in a glass box with 16 grams of flour and a constant source of water. The scientist adds a

nother 16 grams of flour every 17
days. The graph shows the growth of the beetle population over 175 days

Answer:

As the graph is not provided, lets answer this question generally.

Explanation:

Carrying capacity can be described as the maximum number of organisms of a species that a particular habitat can support. Beyond the carrying capacity, the resources will start to deplete and competition will begin for these resources among the organisms. As a result, the population will start to decline due to lesser number of resources available.

In the above experiment, although the scientist is adding flour for the beetles every 17 days but as the population increases, the flour will not be enough for all the beetles.

laila [671]

Answer:

E. 6:3:3:2:1:1

Explanation:

Look at the attached picture to see the Punnett square for your problem.

The cross for this is snapdragons who are heterozygous for both traits so the cross would be:

<em>TtRr x TtRr</em>

As you can see in the image, you have the following genotype combinations with the corresponding phenotype combinations:

GENTOTYPE       PHENOTYPE            NUMBER

TTRR                    Tall - Red                        1

TtRR                     Tall - Red                        2

TTRr                     Tall - Pink                       2

TtRr                      Tall - Pink                       4

TTrr                      Tall - White                     1

Ttrr                       Tall - White                     2

ttRR                      Short - Red                     1  

ttRr                       Short - Pink                    2

ttrr                        Short - White                  1

The following phenotype combinations in summary would then be:

Tall - Pink:     6

Tall - Red:      3

Tall - White:   3

Short - Pink:   2

Short - White: 1

Short - Red:   1

So the ratio is 9:3:3:2:1:1

True or false the green part of a plant is the chlorophyll?​
dedylja [7]

True.

chlorophyll is the only pigment, which gives green colour to the plants

Chlorophyll gives plants their green color because it does not absorb the green wavelengths of white light.

Hope it helps.
