Skeletal muscle! (or striated muscle).
Answer:
The genotypic frequency = 1:1
The phenotypic frequency = 1:1
Explanation:
Given that:
The allele → R = Red beetles
The allele → B = Blue beetles
Since the gene color shows a codominant allele
The Red Beetle = RR
The blue beetles will be = BB
The heterozygous beetle will be = RB
∴
The punnet square showing the crossing of RB × RR is:
R B
R RR RB
R RR RB
The result shows that we have two red beetles and two heterozygous beetles.
Hence;
The genotypic frequency = 1:1
The phenotypic frequency = 1:1
Answer:
B) ecological succession
Explanation:
The analogy given in this question describes ECOLOGICAL SUCCESSION, which is the series of changes that an ecosystem undergoes over a period of time. Ecological succession is of two types viz: Primary succession and Secondary succession.
Primary succession involves the series of changes that occurs on a new habitat that has never been previously colonized. This is the case of the colonization of bare rocks with no plant life by LICHENS. The action of the lichen, which involves secretion of acids that disintegrates the rocks into soil, paves way for the colonization of that area by new species.
Lichens, via the role they play in primary succession by helping alter a barren area into a fertile one that accommodates other organisms, makes them be regarded as PIONEERS of primary succession.
The contamination cleanup strategy called bioremediation—using naturally occurring or genetically modified microbes to clean up our messes—is gaining steam, as scientists devise new ways to use bugs against mercury, oil spills, radioactive waste and more.
Exchange of gases in fish is very efficient because of: the large surface area of the gills. the large surface area of the blood capillaries in each gill filament. the short distance required for diffusion – the outer layer of the gill filaments and the capillary walls are just one cell thick.
