Answer:In ecology, a niche is the match of a species to a specific environmental condition. It describes how an organism or population responds to the distribution of resources and competitors and how it in turn alters those same factors.
Explanation:
<span>Studying the changes in densities of pocket gophers when large herbivores such as elk are excluded from mountain forests would be an example of studying ecology at the community level.
A community refers to a group of organisms of various species that live in the same location and interact with each other. So, if this scientist is observing gophers and elks, they are looking at the level of communities, not anything more or less.

Cerebrospinal Fluid
Produced by the choroid plexuses of the brain, the cerebral spinal fluid is contained in the subarachnoid cavity and spinal canal. It is reabsorbed by the arachnoid granulations.
Besides acting as a cushion for the CNS, the cerebral spinal fluid plays a critical part in the immunology of the central nervous system, blood flow in the CNS and autoregulation.
Answer:
See the explanation
Explanation:
Answer 1.
As given that in F1 all are short and white then it can be said according to Mendel's law that short and white are dominant over tall and purple.
Let S for short s for tall and W for white and w for purple allele.
So the genotype of short purple will be Ssww or SSww. So In first case Ssww self crossed then resultant offsprings will be,
................ Sw .................... sw
Sw ........ SSww ............. Ssww
sw ........ Ssww .............. ssww (tall and purple)
So from this 1/4 will be tall and purple while 3/4 will be short and purple.
In second case SSww only short purple progeny will appear.
Answer 2.
2. a) The female progeny will not show any trait because there are two X chromosome in females , so female offspring can be carrier but not show any trait in case of X- linked trait.
2. b) Half of male offsprings show trait because X is inherited from mother. So the chance of having X-linked recessive allele is 1/2.
2. c) The chance of having X linked affect allele in daughter is 1/2. So the chance of inheriting that X to son will be 1/2 so in total there is chance of 1/4 that son will be affected.
2. d) the chance of first child show this trait will be 1/4 in case of male offspring while 0 in case of female offspring.
Hope this helps!
