Answer:

A geothermal plant takes in heat and creates electricity from it.

The disadvantages of Geothermal Plants  are:

  1. It leads to the release of greenhouse gases such as ammonia, Carbon Di Oxide etc which can contribute to global warming
  2. Installing a Geothermal plant in a protected forest land may also affect the flora and fauna because it comes with the problem of foul odour, soil erosion, in some cases, gas leakage.

Cheers!

Cell theory states that all living things contain one or more cells. Why do you think cell theory meets the definition of
ziro4ka [17]

Answer:

Cell theory meets the definition of a scientific theory  because it can be proven, it has been tested for a long period of time and therefore there are many evidences that support the theory but not enough to become a law. Well scientific laws are statements based on repeated experiments or observation, but also, a law is something that always applies under the same conditions. Evolution occurs in the characteristics of living things within a species overtime. . A theory is much more complex: it explains why something happens. A law only describes what happens.

The cell theory meets the definition of a scientific theory but i do not think it should be a scientific law.

Explain incomplete dominance, using snapdragon<br> flowers as an example.
oee [108]

Answer:

Dominant allele does not completely conceal recessive allele.

Snapdragon with genotype Rr (R being red and r being white), would have a phenotype of pink flowers.

Explanation:

Incomplete dominance is where a dominant allele is not able to completely conceal a recessive allele, usually leading to a phenotype which appears to be a combination of the two.

For example, in snapdragons:

The allele for red flowers (R) is dominant over the allele for white flowers (r). Let's say a snapdragon flower had the genotype Rr, one allele for red flowers and one for white. In the case of 'normal' dominance the dominant red flower allele (R) would mask the effects of the recessive white flower allele (r), resulting in the phenotype (outward observable characteristics) of having red flowers.

However here in the case of incomplete dominance, the dominant allele would not be able to fully cover up the effects of the white flower allele, meaning that both colors (red and white) are expressed in the phenotype, resulting in pink flowers.

Hope this helped!
