Answer:
The options have been placed in the comment section. The answer is C. Inheritance of genes from both parents
Explanation:
Gregor Mendel is referred to as the FATHER OF GENETICS due to his immense contribution to the discovery of how traits are passed down or inherited from parents to offsprings. He found out that a unit of inheritance, which was later called GENE, was responsible for each individual trait of pea plants.
In his numerous experiments, Mendel discovered that the characteristics/traits of pea plants were determined by the contribution of both parents. Mendel hypothesized that each parent contributed 50% of this unit of inheritance via fertilization to the characteristics of an offspring. Hence, the inheritance of genes from both parents determines the characteristics of a pea plant.
Hi!
The answers would be 1. (D) and 2. (B)
<h3>Explanation of Answer 1</h3>
Ice cores are in essence drilled cylinders that are acquired from glaciers or ice sheets. Ice sheets and glaciers are formed over many years as a result of deposits of snow layers. As these layers form, the lower layers become denser with each new layer, owing to pressure, and in the process it traps the air, which is preserved in the form of bubbles in the layer, therein preserving the composition of the air at a particular period of time. Scientists use ice cores to compare the atmospheric composition of previous years to those of recent years, and the gas mainly studied is carbon dioxide owing to its bringing about a climatic change.
<h3>Explanation of Answer 2</h3>
The Earth's orbit is caused by the gravitational attraction that is present between the Earth and the Sun, but changes due to the shape of the orbit (eccentricity), the wobble of the Earth about its axis (precession), and the axial tilt of the Earth (obliquity). These cause a change in the Earths orbit, which give rise to Milankovitch's cycles. Milankovitch's Cycles describes a revolutionary movement of the Earth around the Sun. These cycles are observed to be determinants of the climate of the Earth, in the regard of how much heat or energy the Earth is exposed to.
Hope this helps!
B+ Bb Ww male × B+ Bb Ww female Because beardedness and coat color independently assort, we can treat them independently. The difference between this cross and a dihybrid cross is that the bearded allele B b is dominant in males and recessive in females. So we deal with male and female progeny separately. For each sex, then, we should get a typical dihybrid ratio. In males, the dominant phenotype is bearded, so we should get ¾ bearded, ¼ beardless. In females the dominant phenotype is beardless, so we should get ¾ beardless and ¼ bearded. Each sex will have ¾ black and ¼ white coats.
Answer:
The correct answer would be a. respiration.
In the atmosphere, carbon is present in the form of carbon dioxide. It forms the major components of organic substances or molecules. It is majorly fixed in the ecosystem by process of photosynthesis.
The number of processes or activities help to reintroduce carbon into the atmosphere. Some of them are:
Respiration: Most of the living organisms release carbon dioxide in the atmosphere through respiration. They harnessed energy from food and release carbon dioxide as the byproduct of the process.
The burning of fossil fuels also releases a huge amount of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere.
Volcanic irruptions, forests fires et cetera also release carbon dioxide in the atmosphere.
Hence, we can say that respiration helps in reintroducing carbon into the atmosphere.
