Answer: The main organ of the integumentary system is the skin.
Explanation: The skin regulates body temperature, keeps germs from entering your body, and produces vitamin D to help absorb calcium.
Answer:
If T=tall and t=short, what will be the physical appearance of the offspring in the cross?
Explanation:
It looks like your question is incomplete, so I'll try to fill in the blanks.
The offspring will depend on the parents. Each parent will need two alleles, so each parent would have to be TT (tall), Tt (tall) or tt (short--this is the only way to have a short individual).
Here are all the possible crosses:
TT X TT = 100% TT (all tall)
TT X Tt = 50% TT, 50% Tt (all tall)
TT X tt = 100% Tt (all tall)
Tt X Tt = 25% TT (tall), 50% Tt (tall), 25% tt (short)
tt X tt = 100% tt (short)
Note that if there is a T present in the genotype (TT or Tt), that individual will be tall. The only way to produce short offspring is for the both parents to have a copy of the short allele (t).

Answer: The genotype ratio of offsprings of a cross between one homozygous tall plant and one heterozygous tall plant is 2TT:2Tt
The phenotype ratio is that all offsprings will be tall.
The genotype ratio of a cross between two heterozygous red flowers is 1RR:2Rr:2rr. The phenotype ratio is 3 Red flowers: 1 white flower.
Explanation: From the information given, tall is dominant and short is recessive while red is dominant and white is recessive.
Let T represent the allele for tall height, t represent the allele for short height, R represent allele for red flowers and r represent allele for white flowers.
The genotype of a homozygous tall plant is TT, the genotype of a heterozygous tall plant is Tt, the genotype of a heterozygous red flowered plant is Rr.
The possible genotypes of offsprings of a cross between one homozygous tall plant and one heterozygous tall plant are TT and Tt.
Tt will manifest outwardly as tall because T is dominant over t. Therefore, all the offsprings will be tall.
The possible genotypes of a cross between two heterozygous red flowers are RR, Rr and rr. RR will manifest as red, Rr will also manifest as red because R is dominant to r while rr will manifest as white because white allele (r) is recessive. Therefore 3 plants will be red-flowered while 1 plant will be white flowered.
See the attached punnet squares for details of the cross.
The answer is A. Decreased pH levels. A substance having a pH value less than seven is considered to be acidic. Increases in the concentration of these gases from the use of fossil fuels leads to more acid precipitation, lowering the pH of aquatic environments. Plant life and soil can also be affected by acid rain. Buildings and other infrastructure can be damaged.
