Answer:
c.) plants that grow quickly and have many uses
Explanation:
Cash crops are usually fast-growing crops that have many uses, so that framers can sell them and earn much more profit, that's why it is called "cash crops". Examples of cash crops include coffee, cocoa, cotton etc.
Hi,
Let us get an introduction of the problem first, Incomplete dominance is a pattern of inheritance in which, offspring from the cross of two parents shows a phenotype that is not like either parent but in between both.
For example: Let us take the example of Oompah's hair that can be either red or purple or blue. As described in the question, Red is dominant so let us denote allele for Red hair with R. The other hair color is blue that is recessive, let us denote its allele with r. Now, there is another intermediate phenotype that is purple, let us denote it with Rr because it is derived through a combination of R and r.
Now, here is the key for all possible genotypes and phenotypes of Oompahs. There are only three possible genotypes and phenotypes for the hair color.
Genotype: Phenotype
RR : Red hair
Rr : purple hair
rr : Blue hair
This is because no allele can fully express itself over the other. So is we cross a red hair Oompah with Blue hair Oompah, let us see what will happen:
RR x rr
Gametes: r and R
rr: Rr : Rr : RR
It means that 25 % of the offspring will have red hair, 50% will have contain purple hair and 25 % will have blue hair.
RR: Red hair 25%
Rr: Purple hair 50 %
rr: Blue hair 25%
Hope it helps!
Answer: C. The orchids receive water and oxygen from the fungi, while the fungi receive food and minerals from the orchids.
Mycorrhizal association refers to the mutualistic symbiotic relationship between a fungi and roots of vascular plants. In this type association both partners are benefited.
The plant roots are unable to take nutrients which are chemically or physically immobilized in the soil. The mycelium of the mycorrhizal fungus helps to avail those nutrients to the plants. Thus plants are able to obtain phosphates and iron through these fungi. These fungi also, increase the water absorption capacity of plants. In return the fungi receives the direct access of carbohydrates like glucose and sucrose. These carbohydrates translocate from leaves to roots, from there fungi receives these carbohydrates as food source.
The plant orchid and fungi of phyllum basidiomycota form mycorrhizal association, which is a mutalistic association. Thus, the orchids receive water and oxygen from the fungi, while the fungi receive food and minerals from the orchids.
Answer:
The idea of spontaneous generation was disproved by Francesco Redi.
Explanation:
- Spontaneous generation is a theory that states that living organism can generate from an inanimate object.
- In, 1668, Francesco Redi demonstrate an experiment explaining the theory of spontaneous generation by using meat.He noticed that flies laid eggs on meat which was kept open and maggots developed.
- He took three pieces of meat to do the experiment.
- The first piece of meat was kept open and as usual maggot development takes place.
- With the 2nd piece of meat,he covered it with a piece of cheesecloth and noticed that,flies lay eggs on the cheesecloth but when he removed the cloth,maggot did't form.
- Next, he took a piece of paper and cover the meat piece, and he noticed that flies did't lay any eggs and thus no maggots formed.
