Answer:

Height and other similar features are controlled not just by one gene, but rather, by multiple (often many) genes that each make a small contribution to the overall outcome. This inheritance pattern is sometimes called polygenic inheritance

Answer:

Because the gene is an inheritance of our ancestors, weight is something you gain or lose depending on how balance your health is. The reason why our weight can't be controlled by the gene is because the gene has different traits coming from each parents(50%) and grandparents(25%), and either parents has different weight, so it will be hard for the gene to capture one specific weight from both sides.

The primary producers in an ocean grazing food web are usually ________.
Butoxors [25]

Answer:

phytoplankton

Explanation:

Phytoplankton can be defined as a set of photosynthesizing microorganisms that live floating on the water surface. It is composed of microscopic algae and cyanobacteria, which can be unicellular, colonial or filamentous. These microorganisms are defined as the primary producers of an ocean grazing food network.

Because phytoplankton live in aquatic environments - both in limic (eg lakes) and marine environments - they have a number of adaptations that guarantee their survival in the water column.  Some of these microorganisms, for example, have flagella that aid locomotion; others, in turn, have gas vacuoles that aid in flotation, while some of them have mucilage, which surrounds the cells and ensures protection, flotation and locomotion.
