Answer:
So that in a guinea pig cross in the offspring the recessive trait —long hair— can be observed in 25%, the most probable genotype of the parents is heterozygous Ss.
Explanation:
In guinea pigs, for the characteristic<u> hair length, short hair is the dominant allele and long hair is the recessive one</u>.
In order for 25% of the offspring to express the recessive characteristic, the parents must have a recessive genotype, which can be seen in Punnett's Square:
P: <u>Ss X Ss
</u>
<em>Alleles S s
</em>
<em>S SS Ss
</em>
<em>s Ss ss
</em>
Where the offspring is:
- <em>50% Ss with short hair phenotype
</em>
- <em>25% SS with short hair phenotype
</em>
- <em>25% ss whose phenotype would be long hair.
</em>
According to this, heterozygous parents for the characteristic long hair in guinea pigs have a 25% chance of having offspring with long hair.
"A food chain is a linear sequence of organisms through which nutrients and energy pass as one organism eats another. ... Food webs consist of many interconnected food chains and are more realistic representation of consumption relationships in ecosystems."
Answer:
Outcome variable (dependent variable)
Explanation:
In a scientific investigation, a DEPENDENT VARIABLE (also known as outcome variable) is the variable that is being measured. The dependent variable, as the name implies, responds to the changes made to the independent variable.
For example, in an experiment where the effects of different concentration of fertilizer is used to test plant growth (height), the HEIGHT OF THE PLANTS is the dependent variable because it is the variable being measured.
