Answer:

20 ( B )

Explanation:

Given data:

a and b are 10 map units apart

b and c are 20 map units apart

a and c = 30 map units apart

<em>condition </em>; Triple heterozygote testcrossed

number of progeny = 1000

<u>Determine the number of double crossover result </u>

P( crossover between a and b ) = 10/100 = 0.1

P( crossover between b and c ) = 20/100 = 0.2

p( double crossover ) = 0.1 * 0.2 = 0.02

hence number of double crossovers = number of progeny * 0.02

                                                              = 1000 * 0.02 = 20

Often the growth cycle of one population has an effect on the cycle of another. As moose populations increase, wolf populations
babymother [125]

Answer:

The correct answer is option D) "K".

Explanation:

In this example the wolf population is described by the equation "ΔN/Δt=rN(K−N)K". Even tough the variables are not defined in the question, we can conclude that the effect of the moose population will be given by a factor that has a positive effect in the wolf's population because "as moose populations increase, wolf populations also increase". The factor "K" fits the description because it gives a positive effect on "ΔN/Δt". "K" is a factor that multiplies "rN" at two different levels, therefore the higher the value of "K", the higher value of "ΔN/Δt" will be.
