In clover plants, the pattern on the leaves is determined by a single gene with multiple alleles that are related in a dominance

igomit [66]

Answer:

The correct answer is -

a. 7

b. 7 (p1p1, p1p2, p1p3, p1p4, p1p5, etc

c. p7 is abundant

Explanation:

According the question the dominance of the big leaves is p7 > p6 >p5 >p4 >p3 >p2 >p1 where 1 represent least dominance and 7 represent most dominance

let represent the phenotype with the numbers 1 to 7 and genotype with a combination of these numbers so the genotype in respect of phenotype would be :

p7p7,p7p6, p7p5, p7p4, p7p3, p7p2, p7p1 - most dominant 7

p6p6, p6p5, p6p4, p6p3, p6p2, p6p1 - 6

p5p5, p5p4, p5p3, p5p2, p5p1 - 5

p4p4, p4p3, p4p2, p4p1 - 4

p3p3, p3p2, p3p1 - 3

p2p2, p2p1 - 2

p1p1- 1 least dominant

Thus, there are 28 different combinations or patterns of genotypes. 7 phenotypes patterns.

An increase in the greenhouse effect causes an increase in___

andriy [413]

The answer is option B "temperature." Greenhouse effect is the process of trapping the suns heat in the lower atmosphere. A increase of greenhouse effect would cause surface temperatures to rise. Which then contributes to global warming because of melting the ice bergs in cooler areas on Earth and causing waters to rise and creating storms. It's not option A because the sun gives off heat or harmful radiant waves which doesn't increase carbon dioxide levels. Wouldn't be option D because it would contribute but it wouldn't happen without a increase of temperature. It also wouldn't be option C because oxygen isn't relevant in this case.

Hope this helps.
