Sediments are loose Earth<span> materials such as </span>sand<span> that accumulate on the land surface, in river and </span>lake<span> beds, and on the </span>ocean<span> floor. Sediments form by </span>weathering<span> of rock. They then erode from the site of weathering and are transported by </span>wind<span>, </span>water<span>, </span>ice<span>, and </span>mass wasting<span>, all operating under the influence of gravity. Eventually sediment settles out and accumulates after transport; this process is known as deposition. Sedimentation is a general term for the processes of </span>erosion, transport, and deposition. Sedimentology is the study of sediments and sedimentation.<span>

seropon [69]

Answer:

The genotype of both parents is RrYy.

The possible types of gametes would be RY, Ry, rY, and ry.

The cross would produce offspring that can have one out of four types of phenotypes:

  • Round and yellow seeds (1 RRYY+ 2 RrYY +2 RRYy + 4 RrYy) = 9/16
  • Wrinkled and yellow seeds (3 rrYy) = 3/16
  • Round and green seeds (1 RRyy + 2 Rryy) = 3/16
  • Wrinkled and green seeds (rryy) = 1/16

Thus, one out of 16 offspring would have wrinkled and green seeds.

Pollination - It occurs in seed plants only

Sporophyte contains male and female reproductive structures -  It is found in both seed and seedless plant.

Single fertilization - It occurs in both seed and seedless plant

Sperm cells transported by water to egg cells - seedless plant only
