The answer is polygenic inheritance.
Many physical characters (traits) depend on many different factors, each of which is determined by different genes. This is called polygenic inheritance.


For example, the color of the skin in humans. The color of the skin results from the interactions of several factors determined by different pairs of genes:-Certain genes could affect the metabolism of skin melanocytes.-Other genes can determine the distribution of melanin in the thickness of the skin.-Some genes could determine the relative amounts of each of the two possible types of melanin.-Others may affect the production of certain hormones involved in the activity of melanocytes.

Describe one of the three types of volcanoes we discussed today
White raven [17]

Answer: Shield, Cinder Cone, and Composite volcano.

Explanation: A shield volcano is a volcano that is formed with lava is very runny and spreads to a wide area and then cools to form a shield volcano. These are common at Hawaii.

A cinder cone volcano is the smallest volcano. It's made from minor eruptions and cinders. They're short and usually erupt for a short period of time. Mexico's Parícutin volcano, is a cinder cone.

Composite or stratovolcanoes are the most common type of volcano. They form from thick, less runny lava. Since it is so thick, it cools then makes the volcano taller. Mount st helens, in Washington state is a stratovolcano.

A new food product is being distributed by a company. Researchers determine that the food product contains only carbon, oxygen,
Contact [7]

Answer:

This new food is a carbohydrate

Explanation:

<em>Carbohydrates (also known as saccharide) general formula is CH2On, this means they are molecules that only contain carbon (C), hydrogen (H) and oxygen (O). </em>In the basic form, these sugars are known as monosaccharides, they can combine no form more complex sugars like disaccharide (2), oligosaccharides (2-10) or polysaccharides (>10).

Therefore we can conclude that this new food is a carbohydrate.

I hope you find this information useful and interesting! Good luck!

there are multiple chickens and rabbits in a cage there are 72 heads and 200 feet inside of the cage how many chickens are in th
schepotkina [342]
The answer is 44 chickens and 28 rabbits.

We have a system of two equations.
x - the number of rabbits
y - the number of chickens

Both chicken and rabbit have only 1 head, so the first equation is: x + y = 72.
Since rabbits have 4 legs and chickens 2 legs, the second equation is: 4x + 2y = 200.

Now, let's solve the system:
x + y = 72
4x + 2y = 200
___________
y = 72 - x
⇒ 4x + 2 · (72 - x) = 200
4x + 2 · 72 - 2 · x = 200
4x + 144 - 2x = 200
2x + 144 = 200
2x = 200 - 144
2x = 56
⇒ x = 56 ÷ 2 = 28
So, there are 28 rabbits.

Since
y = 72 - x = 72 - 28 = 44,
there are 44 chickens.

Why does this recent discovery about the galapagos finches prove that it’s often challenging for scientists to determine when tw
34kurt

Because the species of finches on the Galápagos island have various appearances but still mate with other finches and produce fertile offspring making it is difficult for scientists to distinguish between two groups of individuals as separate species.

<h3>What is the island of Galápagos?</h3>

The Pacific Ocean island of Galápagos is located to the west of Ecuador. It is a volcanic island known for its diverse and endemic types of living things.

<h3>Why is it difficult to find new species in Finches?</h3>

Charles Darwin spent several years studying the many species of finches on the Galápagos island. He saw a great deal of variation in these finches, which supports the hypothesis of natural selection.

However. it is challenging for scientists to discern between two separate species because the species of finches on the Galápagos island have a variety of features that are different but still mate with other finches and produce fertile offspring.
