Answer:

Bioluminescence is the production and emission of light by a living organism. It is a form of chemiluminescence. Bioluminescence occurs widely in marine vertebrates and invertebrates, as well as in some fungi, microorganisms including some bioluminescent bacteria, and terrestrial arthropods such as fireflies.

In foxes, silver coat (r) is recessive to red coat (R). Two foxes are mated. One of the parent foxes has a red coat and one has
morpeh [17]

Answer:

<h2>Genotypes of parents are Rr and rr.</h2><h2 />

Explanation:

A homozygous fox would have either two dominant alleles (RR) or two recessive alleles (rr).  

A heterozygous fox would have a mix of both one dominant allele and one recessive allele (Rr).

However, a heterozygous fox can only be red, as the (Rr) combination will make it so that the dominant red coat trait will rule over the recessive allele.

(a).  as given that f 1 generation are 4 red and 3 white , so RED coat can not be homozygous dominant , So red coat will be Rr (heterozygous dominant).

(b). silver coat is recessive homozygous , rr

(c).  genotypes of offspring  Rr, Rr, rr, rr.

(d) yes

(e) yes

Explain how chromosome behavior during meiosis ensures transfer of parental traits to offspring
gizmo_the_mogwai [7]

Explanation:

During meiosis, sister chromosomes of a homologous pair separate into different cells during gamete formation . This mainly occurs in Metaphase I of meiosis where the homologous chromosomes line up the metaphase plate in their sets. Each chromosomes of a pair are then pulled to different poles of the cells separating them. Each of these chromosomes carries a set of alleles of a gene. Each cell/gamete, therefore, carried half the set of alleles of all genes compared to autosomal cells. There many combinations of these sets that can occur depending on the number of chromosomes the organism has.

These cells when combined with that of another parent during fertilization, form a zygote that grows and develops into a mature organism. The offspring will bear the characteristics of both parents because it inherits half a set of chromosomes from both parents.

Your friend (an endotherm) adopts a 50 kg snake (an ectotherm) as a pet. Your friend also weighs 50 kg. a) Given what you have l
lesantik [10]

Answer:

Friend (endotherm) will need to eat more calories than snake (ectoderm) to maintain constant body temperature.

To generate heat endotherms convert the food they eat into energy through the process called metabolism. Most of the food that the endotherms eat is converted into fuel to maintain a constant body temperature. Endotherms need to eat more food than ectoderms of the same size to maintain their constant body temperature.
