Out of the following given choice;

F. replaces the animal's soft tissues.

G. enters the animal's body cavity.

H. hardens before the animal decays.

J. mineralizes the animal's bones.

The answer H. This can be caused by hot pyroclastic flows or falling volcanic ash from the atmosphere following a volcanic eruption. The ash buries animals and plants intact without moving them and without completely crushing or burning them. Over time excess silica dissolved in the water often replaces soft bone materials molecule by molecule, creating an almost indestructible fossil (like petrified wood) that lasts for millions of years

Why were Domains added to the classification system after the time of Linnaeus?

Luden [163]

Answer: With the development of powerful microscopes, scientists discovered many single-celled organisms that didn't fit into any of Linnaeus' kingdoms. As a result, a new taxon, called the domain, was added to the classification system.

In cattle, codominance of the allele for a red coat (R) and the allele for a white coat (W) results in offspring with a roan coa

mario62 [17]

Answer:

Genotype ratio: 1 (RR) : 2 (RW) : 1 (WW)

Phenotype ratio: 1 Red : 2 Roan : 1 White

Explanation:

Codominance is a kind of inheritance pattern in which both alleles are equally dominant in a gene. This means that both alleles when in a heterozygous state will be simultaneously expressed. According to this question, allele for a red coat (R) and the allele for a white coat (W) results in offspring with a roan coat (RW) in cattle.

Hence, in a cross between a a roan cow (RW) and a roan bull (RW), the following gametes will be produced: R and W.

Using these gametes in a punnet square (see attached image), the offsprings with the following genotypes will be produced: RR, RW, RW, WW.

Therefore, based on the results of the cross;

Genotype ratio: 1 (RR) : 2 (RW) : 1 (WW)

Phenotype ratio: 1 Red : 2 Roan : 1 White

Human height is a polygenic trait. This means that the

dalvyx [7]

This means that each dominant allele "adds" to the expression of the next dominant allele. Usually, traits are polygenic when there is wide variation in the trait. For example, humans can be many different sizes. Height is a polygenic trait, controlled by at least three genes with six alleles.
