Organisms that live in water are not totally independent of soil as a resource. These organisms depend on aquatic plants for food and other substances. These aquatic plants in turn require minerals for their sustenance. These minerals are carried to waterbodies from soil by rivers, rainwater etc.
Tectonic plate movements, volcanic eruptions, earthquakes, and climate change have shifted wildlife habitats, wiped out large numbers of species, and created opportunities for the evolution of new species. Hope this helped!
Answer:
PpDD and PpDd
Explanation:
Pigmented eyes (P) are dominant to non-pigmented (p), and dimpled chins (D) are dominant to Non-dimpled chins (d).
The <u>possible genotypes of a pigment-eyed, dimple-chinned person</u> would be PPDD, PpDd, PPDd, PpDD while a blue-eyed person without a dimpled chin would have the genotype ppdd.
The genotype of a blue-eyed, dimpled chin child would be either of ppDd or ppDD, but in this case, the mother is ppdd and as such, the child cannot have two copies of D allele. Hence, the genotype of the child can only be ppDd.
In order for the child to have blue eyes (pp), it means that the father has to have the non-pigmented allele (p). This also means that the father is heterozygous for eye pigmentation (Pp).
<em>Hence, the genotype of the father is now limited to </em><em>PpDD</em> <em>and </em><em>PpDd</em>.
The Crossing Over only occurs in the meiosis on prophase I and metaphase I
The landscape in which limestone is eroded to form deep valleys and cavers are called Karst landscape or karst topography. This kind of development start occuring whenever the acidic water starts breaking down the bedrocks near the cracks. As the bedrock starts breaking down slowly, the cracks start to open up creating bigger holes. with passage of time the holes will become big enough to create an underground drainage system for the surface water to flow and form underneath. If the water is unable to flow out and becomes stagnant, then the Karst will start getting bigger.
