According to the U.S. Geological Survey, most of that three percent is inaccessible. Over 68 percent of the fresh water on Earth is found in icecaps and glaciers, and just over 30 percent is found in ground water. Only about 0.3 percent of our fresh water is found in the surface water of lakes, rivers, and swamps. The use for the water in the world is for household drinking water. The ocean stores about 97 percent of the Earth's water; the remaining three percent is stored in glaciers and ice, below the ground, in rivers and lakes. Of the world's total water supply of about 332 million cubic miles of water, about 97 percent is stored in the ocean.
Hope this helps!
Answer:
True
Explanation:
Sound waves need a medium to travel through. That's why you cant hear sound in space. But you can see light in space and the sun heats up our planet, so yes, light doesnt need a medium to travel through.

Since each trait is carried on a different chromosome, the two traits are independent of each other. Since both parents are heterozygous for the trait, each parent can contribute 1 of a possible 4 combinations of the alleles. So there are 16 possible offspring. I'll use "a", "A", "b", "B" to represent each allele and the possible children are aabb, aabB, aaBb, aaBB, aAbb, aAbB, aABb, aABB, Aabb, AabB, AaBb, AaBB, AAbb, AAbB, AABb, and AABB
Of the above 16 possibilities, there are 7 that are homozygous in an undesired traint and 9 that don't exhibit the undesired trait. So let's first calculate the probability of "what are the chances that all 5 children not exhibiting an undesired trait?" and then subtract that result from 1. So
1-(9/16)^5 = 1 - 59049/1048576 = 989527/1048576 which is approximately 0.943686485 = 94.3686485%
So the answer is exactly 989527/1048576, or approximately 94.37%
Answer:
a) Maxillopoda is a diverse class of crustaceans including barnacles, copepods and a number of related animals. It does not appear to be a monophyletic group, and no single character unites all the members
b) General Characters of Hexapoda (Insects)
Ø A large taxa, includes insects and a small group of wingless arthropods.
Ø Body plan: 3 parts, head, thorax and abdomen.
Ø Head with six segments.
Ø Thorax with three pairs of jointed legs (hence the name hexapoda)
Ø Head bears a presegmental acron.
Ø Acron bears compound eyes.
