Edith and her pal Dave love to catch butterflies in the nearby fields! The fields are home to a special type of green butterfly

known as “Goobers” and only really great butterfly catchers are lucky enough to catch some on every trip. Many of the butterflies are yellow (RR) or blue (BB), but some end up with yellow and blue spots as a result of co-dominance (RB). Edith and Dave can only catch 1 yellow and 1 blue butterfly but really want a goober. They decide to mate the two butterflies they caught. What is the probability of them getting a "goober" butterfly?

Answer:

The probability of obtaining a "goober" butterfly is 6.25%

Explanation

If there are three possible combinations of butterflies, with yellow and blue being dominant, green is supposed to contain a recessive pattern, so according to Mendel's law of character independence, the pattern RR and BB manifest the dominant phenotype yellow, blue or yellow and blue in spots, the green pattern must be recessive is represented by the letter a, the punnett graph is made, obtaining that 56% present a dominant pattern, 37.5% will be spotted and the pattern recessive must match to generate 6.25% of butterflies “goober”.

In a study published in the journal Nature, scientists studied eight ponds in Florida: four that were populated by a species of
AlexFokin [52]

Answer: the rate of pollination of flower, in a field next to a pond with no fish, will DECREASE.

Explanation:

POLLINATION is defined as the process by which flowering plants, through the aid of external agents such as insects,wind, water and other animals, are able to transfer pollen grains from an anther to a receptive stigma. Insects are the most common pollinators. They visit flowers to obtain nectar and pollen as source of food. Flowers use various features, such as colour and scent, to attract and guide insects to the food source within them. In the process of reaching their source of food, insects bring about pollination.

From the study conducted by scientist in Florida, eight(8) ponds where subjected to the the study. The first four (4) ponds had species of fishes that fed on dragonflies and dragonfly larvae, hence the reason for a decrease in the population of the dragon flies in the area around it. While the remaining four (4) ponds had NO fish and the area around it is populated with dragonflies and dragonfly larvae. This is so because of the absence of fish.

It was then noted that the dragon lies fed of the insect pollinators such as the bees and butterflies. Since these dragonflies and its larvae are abundant in the field which is close to the pond with no fish, they will grossly depend on the insect pollinators as their source of food thereby decreasing the rate of pollination in the field next to the pond with no fish.
