<em>b. wildfires</em>
<em>b. magnified the greenhouse effect</em>
The first blank is pretty simple; if lightning (electricity) strikes something flammable, like a forest, a fire is sure to ensue. This fire will obviously spread to the other trees and cause a massive wildfire.
The second blank is the greenhouse effect. The greenhouse effect is said to have caused our warming climate, which makes sense because heat from the sun gets trapped in our global "greenhouse", or the lower atmosphere. Lower atmosphere is key here because a large event like a massive wildfire can add some more heat to the atmosphere and contribute to this effect. A wildfire may seem like a minor event on a global scale, but it will do more damage to the atmosphere than you think!

Answer and Explanation:
Nondisjunction occurs when homologous chromosomes fail to segregate during anaphase I or sister chromatids fail to segregate during anaphase II. The result is an addition or loss of one or more chromosomes. Nondisjunction is associated with disorders like Down's syndrome due to an extra chromosome, Klinefelter's syndrome or Turner's syndrome. These phenomenon where one has three members of homologous chromosome is called trisomy.
Answer:
This question lacks options, the options are:
A) FF and ff
B) FF and Ff
C) Ff and Ff
D) Ff and ff
The answer is D (Ff and ff for parent 1 and 2 respectively)
Explanation:
This question depicts a single gene coding for fur colour in mice. The gene controls two traits, black fur and white fur, encoded by alleles F and f respectively.
According to the question, a pair of mice has been bred several times to generate the same data of 22 black fur and 23 white fur mice. Based on this data, it shows that the phenotypic ratio of black to white mice is 1:1.
To get a 1:1 phenotypic ratio of black fur offspring to white fur offspring, the parents mice must have genotypes Ff (heterozygous) and ff (same recessive alleles).
In a cross between parents Ff × ff (see punnet square), offsprings with the following genotypes will be produced: Ff, Ff, ff and ff. Ff is black furred while ff is white furred.
Ff (2) : ff (2) is equivalent to Ff (1) : ff (1).
Hence, a data of 22 black mice and 23 white mice which represents a 1:1 ratio will only be produced by parents mice with genotypes: Ff and ff.
