Explanation:

In the given question, the graph has been shown representing the change in temperature on Earth between 1900 to 1990. The graph has been made by plotting temperature ( °F) on y-axis vs Year on the x-axis.

From the graph, it can be observed that the temperature on Earth has increased over the years but between 1970 to 1990 the temperature has increased from 56.9 °F to 58.1 °F approximately.

The reason for this increase in temperature could be accounted to the fact that the burning of fossil fuels like petrol, gas, coal and others increased over these years which increased the amount of carbon dioxide and other harmful gases in the atmosphere.

Due to the increase in these gas, the greenhouse effect was observed and the temperature of the Earth begins to rise at an alarming rate.

The orange gene (O) controls the production of a pigment (pheomelanin) that gives Bengal tigers their orange coat color. Felines
den301095 [7]

Answer:

0.5

Explanation:

Given, gene O results in production of pigment.

OO, Oo = Orange

oo = white

If Oo X oo :

    O       o

o  Oo    oo

o  Oo    oo

Half of the progeny will have Oo genotype so they will be heterozygous and will have orange fur. Other half will have oo genotype so they will be homozygous recessive and will have white fur. So the odds of having a white tiger cub is 0.5.

Irina-Kira [14]
The second answer, it is durable because it is tested, is the correct answer choice. This is because science cannot be based on opinion or personal philosophy, and science is constantly chaging and being updated as we learn more about our world and the things around it.

Explain what happens during the process of fertilization using the following terms: diploid, egg, haploid, sperm, and zygote
lisov135 [29]

Answer: During fertilization, an egg with haploid number of chromosomes unites with a sperm cell with a haploid number of chromosomes to form a zygote with a diploid number of chromosomes.

Explanation: Fertilization is a process in which a sperm cell from a male fuses with an egg from a woman to form a zygote. Sperm cells and eggs are diploid cells and they have half the number of chromosomes as the parent cell. During fertilization the haploid chromosomes from the sperm cells combine with the haploid chromosomes from egg to form a zygote with diploid chromosomes. Diploid cells have the same number of chromosomes as the parent cell. Haploid cells are produced in meiosis while diploid cells are produced in mitosis.
