Answer:
The correct answer is - autosomal codominant inheritance (due to multiple alleles).
Explanation:
Autosomal codominant inheritance or codominance is a pattern of inheritance where the alleles present of an autosomal gene express their character in the phenotype. In other words, in this type of pattern, no allele would be masked by other alleles and both will be expressed in the phenotype.
The human ABO blood group is an example of this pattern as there are three alleles A, B, and O. In the heterozygous case of AB blood group both A, and B alleles expressed together however, O is masked by both alleles A, and O.

Explanation:
1. Landslides can be initiated in slopes already on the verge of movement by rainfall, snowmelt, changes in water level, stream erosion, changes in ground water, earthquakes, volcanic activity, disturbance by human activities, or any combination of these factors.
2. Landslides are geologic phenomena that can happen suddenly or through imperceptively slow downslope movement. ... A "translational" landslide can happen rapidly and result in all of the soil on a hillside being stripped off and filling the area at the bottom of the slope.
3. Sedimentary rock contains fossils because it was built up layer upon layer, often trapping and preserving animals, plants, footprints, and more within the layers of sediment.
4. The Uplift of the Colorado Plateau. The Kaibab Limestone, the uppermost layer of rock at Grand Canyon, was formed at the bottom of the ocean. ... The action of plate tectonics lifted the rocks high and flat, creating a plateau through which the Colorado River could cut down.

Answer:
Please see below
Explanation:
A. Zebra mussels are located in the areas of the United States that they were introduced to but it continues to spread across the US as time progresses.
B. Since the Zebra mussels can attach itself to solid surfaces, boats are no exceptions. They are able to go a few days out of water which gives them enough time to remain attached until a boater takes the vessel to another lake or isolated body of water.
C. Since these are filter feeders they are growing without a natural predator since they are an invasive specie. They feed on the algae in the water and use up almost all of this food supply and makes resources for other native specie (fish) that depend on this food source to die out.
D. Burmese pythons in the Florida everglades are an invasive specie. The prey on endangered species, have no real predator and have voracious feeding habits that affect the numbers in the animal population.
E. Non- native mongoose was introduced on Jamaica to control the snake population. The problem with introducing a non native specie would be that this new organism is also without a natural predator. After the target specie has been eliminated it may try to feed on other animals in the ecosystem as well.
F. Invasive species need to adapt to weather conditions and should be able to hunt/acquire its food in order to survive in its new environment.
