The phenotype is - 75 % red and 25 %brown.
The genotype is hRhR - 25%
hBkhR - 50%
hBrhBk - 25%.
<h3><u>Explanation:</u></h3>
The cross given here is a simple dominant - recessive relationship between the three types of alleles of hair colour. The genes of this characteristics are present in autosomes, so will be segregated equally among all the sexes of the offsprings.
Now the genotype of auburn and red with black mother is given. So during gametogenesis, the gametes from the parents will be
Father - hBr and hR
Mother - hBk and hR
So, the probable combinations are hBrhBk, hBrhR and hBkhR.
The frequency of the combinations are 25%, 25% and 50% respectively.
The phenotypic ratio will be red : brown as 3:1.
Answer:
Diffusion is the process in which molecules and ions move from a region of high concentration to low concentration. Its also how cells transport waste out of the cell and nutrients into it hence being very crucial. Diffusion also occurs without the expenditure of extra energy using a procedure known as passive transport. (Osmosis is a form of diffusion but deals with water exclusively).
Examples of where diffusion is important;
In the intestines - Digested food molecules such as amino acids and glucose move down the concentration gradient from the intestine into the bloodstream. Wastes such as carbon dioxide or urea travel via diffusion from the body's cells to the bloodstream.
Osmosis plays a major role in living organisms. It aids in the transportation of nutrients from cells to cells and also helps to remove the waste's metabolic products from the cell. The purification of blood in the kidneys is also dependent on the process of osmosis.
Answer:
Shear stress
Explanation:
Shear stress is a type of stress that occurs when a rock mass is pushed in parallel and opposite directions.
The reason is because of the theory "the path of least resistance." The bird is not touching anything else, so it doesn't become our fried birdie dinner.
Because predators and prey must learn (or adapt) new ways of survival. Deer over time have learned to be much more sensitive to the surrounding environment, therefore, a deer's predator must also adapt/evolve and learn how to beat the deer at it's own game and catch it for food. Animals must evolve/adapt to any given environment. If humans lived in Antarctica for thousands of years, we would eventually be able to withstand the cold due to evolution. People who live in the Himalayas today actually breath normally at such high altitudes whereas if someone who lives at sea level went to where the Himalayan people lived, the result could potentiality be fatal because the body has not adapted/evolved at that point to withstand minimal oxygen.
