a cross between a homzygous tall plant and homzygous short plant would predict that the offspring had: A the same genotype as on
11Alexandr11 [23.1K]

Answer:

C

Explanation:

The correct answer would be <u>a genotype that was different from that of both parents.</u>

Let us assume that the allele for height is A (for tall) and a (for short). Homzygous tall plant would have the genotype AA while homzygous short plant would have the genotype aa. Crossing both genotypes:

                AA   x   aa

             Aa   Aa   Aa   Aa

<em>All of the offspring, even though have the same phenotype as one of the parents, have unique genotype from either of the parents. While the parents are AA/aa, the offspring are Aa.</em>

The correct option is, therefore, C.

Why are some volcanoes explosive while others are not?
umka21 [38]

There are actually very few volcanoes that do not explode, but the ones that do explode with a high sound and lots of hot magma, and some are very low and don't have a lot of magma. An explosive eruption always begins with some form of blockage in the crater of a volcano that prevents the release of gases trapped in highly viscous andesitic or rhyolitic magma. The high viscosity of these forms of magma prevents the release of trapped gases.

Explain the term "Poly Inheritance" and give an example of a human trait that is controlled in such manner
Alenkasestr [34]

Answer:

Polygenic inheritance occurs when one characteristic is controlled by two or more genes. Often the genes are large in quantity but small in effect. Some examples include height, skin color, eye color and weight.

- In polygenic inheritance the "dominant" capital genes are additive, each capital gene adding one unit of color to the genotype.With more capital genes, the phenotype (appearance) gets darker.
