You inherited your mother's crooked nose and her recipe for chocolate chip cookies (both favorable traits). Which trait will be
SIZIF [17.4K]

Answer:

b.the recipe because it can be passed on to all relatives

Explanation:

A crooked nose is a genetic trait and can be passed to the progeny via genes only. Sexually reproducing organisms such as humans experience segregation of traits during gamete formation. Therefore, crooked nose inheritance is a chance factor regulated by the inheritance of genes and the segregation of alleles. On the other hand, a recipe for chocolate chip cookies can be shared with all the relatives and other individuals of the population by any means without any conditions. Therefore, a recipe will spread more quickly through the population.

How would seasons on Earth differ if Earth's axis was at a 90 degree angle relative to its orbit?
Triss [41]

Answer:

There would be no seasons anywhere on Earth

Explanation:

If the Earth's axis was not tilting and it was at a 90 degrees angle relative to its orbit, then the seasons on Earth would disappear. The climate on the planet would be defined by the latitude. The equator and the areas close to it would always have summer, as they will receive direct sunlight throughout all of the year. The mid-latitudes will always have temperate climate, reminding of spring and autumn, as the sunlight will not be very direct, but it will also not be very dispersed, jut enough to create a constantly pleasant climate. The higher latitudes will always have winter, as the sunlight will come at a very low angle throughout all of the year, thus it will be very dispersed, not enough to ever warm this parts enough, so they will constantly be under ice.
