what are the two factors that create the difference between the temperate forest biome in the taiga biome

1 answer:

8 0

The temperate forest biome covers latitudes ranging approximately from the southern United States to southern Canada, while the taiga biome, also known as boreal forest, extends from the latitude of southern Canada to about 60 degrees north latitude. (see References 1, References 3) Thus, these two biomes are adjacent, which explains the many similarities between taiga and northern temperate forests. Both biomes have four distinct seasons, but the temperate forest climates cover a much wider range of temperatures and precipitation patterns. Taiga, in contrast, is reliably cold: most of the precipitation falls as snow, winters are severe and the growing season is short -- about 130 days compared to 140 to 200 days for temperate forests.

In certain fish, blue scales (B) and red scales (R) are codominant. Cross a blue

Step2247 [10]

Answer:

the genotype of the offspring would be RB, BR, RB, BR (well the genetic pattern of the fish varies for example the fish could have Bg meaning dominant blue and maybe recessive green im making this up and going into detail too much). the phenotype would have to be some sort of mix.

Explanation:

the genotype is the genes on the inside. i just use a table to mix it and assumed both fish were just pure blue/pure red. the phenotype is what's visible. it would be a mix such as maybe purple or red here and blue there. this is since they are both dominant and have to be expressed. same for blood types (AB blood). sorry for late answer.

A pair of mice are bred several times generating the following data table. What are the most likely genotypes of the parents?

Tamiku [17]

Answer:

This question lacks options, the options are:

A) FF and ff

B) FF and Ff

C) Ff and Ff

D) Ff and ff

The answer is D (Ff and ff for parent 1 and 2 respectively)

Explanation:

This question depicts a single gene coding for fur colour in mice. The gene controls two traits, black fur and white fur, encoded by alleles F and f respectively.

According to the question, a pair of mice has been bred several times to generate the same data of 22 black fur and 23 white fur mice. Based on this data, it shows that the phenotypic ratio of black to white mice is 1:1.

To get a 1:1 phenotypic ratio of black fur offspring to white fur offspring, the parents mice must have genotypes Ff (heterozygous) and ff (same recessive alleles).

In a cross between parents Ff × ff (see punnet square), offsprings with the following genotypes will be produced: Ff, Ff, ff and ff. Ff is black furred while ff is white furred.

Ff (2) : ff (2) is equivalent to Ff (1) : ff (1).

Hence, a data of 22 black mice and 23 white mice which represents a 1:1 ratio will only be produced by parents mice with genotypes: Ff and ff.
