Answer:

Traits affected by interactions among many genes

Explanation:

Characteristics that are polygenic are controlled by two or more major genes. The physical expression of these genes is not influenced significantly by environmental conditions. Polygenic traits are a type of discontinuous variation.

Use the pH color scale. It shows acidity level of both acids and bases. You dip one of the pH strips into whatever liquid you choose, and then compare the new color of the pH strip to the colors on the scale. This will tell you the level of acidity. pH scale can be found below. As you can see, the brighter colors are more acidic than the darker and duller colors.

Answer:

(a) X: Producers undergo photosynthesis. Y: Decomposers return carbon to the soil and release waste.

Explanation:

(a) X: Producers undergo photosynthesis. Y: Decomposers return carbon to the soil and release waste.

(b) X: Decomposers return carbon to the soil and release waste. Y: Producers undergo photosynthesis.

(c) X: Decomposers take in carbon dioxide. Y: Producers absorb carbon through their roots.

(d)X: Producers absorb carbon through their roots. Y: Decomposers take in carbon dioxide.

Box 2 (X) would be the process through which producers fix carbon dioxide to produce their own food, the carbohydrate. The process is otherwise known as photosynthesis and can be represented by the following equation:

$6CO_2 + 6H_20 --> C_6H_1_2O_6 + 6O_2$

Box 4 (Y) would be the process of decomposition. Both producers and consumers eventually die and decompose in the soil. During this process, some of the carbon returns to the soil as organic matters while the process of microbial decomposition releases carbon dioxide into the atmosphere.

The correct option would be (a).
