Answer:B. Sunlight provides energy to producers

Explanation: photoautotrophs (plants) produce energy from sunlight by photosynthesis. This is the only energy production based on an external source of energy. Plants, whether alive or dead, are consumed by heterotrophs - bacteria, fungi and animals. The nutrients and energy from dead heterotrophs (and some live ones) are recycled by both autotrophs and heterotrophs.

maria [59]

Answer:

exponential growth

Explanation:

The organisms that are not native of a particular environment but are exposed to live in that particular environment are invasive species. Usually invasive species do not prove useful to the new area and prove harmful to the environment as well. There are some species of organisms that have been accidently introduced to new environment and have been accidently proven to be beneficial. Zebra mussels, being the native to Black Sea when arrived to North America flourished there.

A young couple went to see a genetic counselor because each had a sibling affected with cystic fibrosis. (Cystic fibrosis is a r
mel-nik [20]

Answer:

a) The correct answer is 1/2 or 0.5

Cystic fibrosis is a recessive disorder and her sibling has a disease but none of the parents had it. Thus, each of the parents must be the carrier of the disease, that is, both of them must be heterzygous.

So, if we cross Cc x Cc, it results in the genotype ratio of 1 (CC) : 2 (Cc) : 1 (cc)

Thus, 2 out of 4 would be the carrier of the disease.

b) 1/16

The probability of female to the carrier is 1/2

Same is the case with male partner due to the probability that he would be the carrier is 1/2

If both are carrier then, there is only 1/4 chances that the offspring will have the disease (as per cross shown above).

Now, the probability that the offspring will have the disease = product of all the above probabilities. (The probability of occurrence of two independent events is equal to the product of their individual probabilities).

So, \frac{1}{2}x\frac{1}{2}x\frac{1}{4} = \frac{1}{16}

c) 1/8

The probability of female to be the carrier is 1/2

The probability male to be the carrier is 1/2

If both are carrier then, there is only 2/4 chances that the offspring will be the carrier of the disease (as per cross shown above).

Now, the probability that the offspring will be the carrier = product of all the above probabilities. (The probability of occurrence of two independent events is equal to the product of their individual probabilities).

\frac{1}{2}x\frac{1}{2}x\frac{2}{4} = \frac{1}{8}
