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”.

Which description is an example of converting gravitational energy into kinetic energy?
Troyanec [42]
When an object from a pause state begins to move the potential energy is changed into kinetic energy. One of the example is the yo-yo, it has stored energy due to its position. Once the yo-yo begins its fall the potential energy will change to kinetic energy and vice versa.

Greeley [361]
According to Thelen {1986}, THE STEPPING REFLEX may contribute to the birthing process.
Stepping reflex is one of the reflexes demonstrate by new born babies. When resistance is exerted on the feet of a new born baby, the baby will respond by placing one foot in front of the other, this is called stepping reflex and Thelen suggested that this reflex may help in the birthing process.

Gre4nikov [31]

It depends on the energy released by radioactive decay of uranium and other heavy long lived isotopes in the Earth's core and the internal heat of the Earth is produced by the original heat of formation that resulted from accretion and gravitational contraction.
