That would be C.

Why Do More Species Live Near the Equator? 5 reason why
PtichkaEL [24]

Answer:Species Dynamics. This theory is quite straightforward: species that can colonize new areas faster and reproduce in greater number than they become extinct have the greatest chances to thrive. The tropics offer favorable conditions for these conditions to be met.    

There Is More Diversity Near the Equator. ... Another argues that more solar energy is received around the equator, allowing for greater species richness. A third points out that equatorial tropics are the largest biome, so it makes sense that there would be more species.

blsea [12.9K]
The little dots collected from under the fern leaves are spores, not seeds. Ferns are different from seed-bearing plants in that ferns in a sexless way through sporophyte generation. Spores dropped from or taken from grown fern leaves have developed prothallium. Each prothallium generates male and female organs in what is called the gametophyte stage. When fertilization of the female gametophyte happens, small fern plants or leaflets start to grow.

Consider a cross between a man with an X-linked recessive disorder and a woman that's a carrier for the disorder. Approximately
Vadim26 [7]

Answer:

50%

Explanation:

Let's assume that the X linked allele "a" gives the disorder. Therefore, the genotype of the affected man would be X^aY while the genotype of the carrier woman would be X^aX. A cross between X^aY man and X^aX woman would produce progeny in following phenotype ratio: 1 affected daughter: 1 affected son: 1 normal but carrier daughter: 1 normal son.

Therefore, there are 50% chances that their children can express the disorder.
