Answer:

See the answer below

Explanation:

<em>Genotype is the genetic composition of organisms and a gene is made up of two alleles.</em>

a) Since the allele for black is B, <u>the genotype for black chickens would be BB. </u>

b) Since the allele for white is W, <u>the genotype for white chickens would be WW.</u>

c) Since erminette color is heterozygous,<u> the genotype would be BW.</u>

d) Two erminette were crossed:

         BW    x    BW

      BB BW BW WW

i. <em>Probability of having black chick (BB) </em>= 1/4

ii. <em>Probability of having a white chick (WW)</em> = 1/4

iii. <em>Probability of having erminette chicken (BW)</em> = 1/2

The manila grasshopper has several benefits to ecosystem and humans.

  • In general it facilitates decomposition and regrowth of plants by creating a balance between the types of plants that grow well.
  • Like other animals, grasshopper eats and excretes in the soil. Its waste increases the fertility of the soil and promotes plant growth.
  • Grasshopper body is rich in protein, on its death microorganisms break down its body and enrich the soil and helps plants to grow.
  • Grasshoppers prevent over growth of plants as it consume about 10% of the available plant biomass, thus maintain ecological balance.

GaryK [48]

Answer:

Yes.

Explanation:

Yes, this change of conditions also change the analysis of the situation because the analysis is related to the environmental conditions. When the environmental condition for an organisms changed so it also change its presence in that environment. If there is plenty of resources such as water, food and space for living, the population of that organism will be higher in that region while on the other hand, if this organisms is moved to a place where the resources such as water, food and space is scarce then it will leads to decrease in population of that organisms so we can say that change in conditions also bring change in our analysis.
