When Mendel performed his experiments, only one trait appeared in the F1 generation, (in this case, round peas) and the other tr

ait (wrinkled peas) had seemingly disappeared. However, once he let the plants of the F1 generation self-fertilize, the wrinkled peas reappeared! If you were Mendel, how would you explain this phenomenon

Answer:

See the answer below

Explanation:

The explanation I would give to the phenomenon is that<u> the round trait in peas completely covers or nullify the wrinkled trait when they are together.</u> In order words, <u>whenever a single the allele of both trait come together to form a new trait, the round trait allele dominates and mask the expression of the allele of the wrinkled trait</u>.

<em>This is what Mendel explained and dominance/recessive effects. The round trait was dominant over the wrinkled trait while the wrinkled trait was said to be recessive and can only be expressed when alone.</em>

Why is stratospheric ozone beneficial to life on earth, whereas tropospheric (ground-level ozone is not?
xenn [34]
Ozone is produced naturally in the stratosphere. But this "good" ozone is gradually being destroyed by man-made chemicals referred to as ozone-depleting substances (ODS), including chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs), hydrochlorofluorocarbons (HCFCs), halons, methyl bromide, carbon tetrachloride, and methyl chloroform. These substances were formerly used and sometimes still are used in coolants, foaming agents, fire extinguishers, solvents, pesticides, and aerosol propellants. Once released into the air these ozone-depleting substances degrade very slowly. In fact, they can remain intact for years as they move through the troposphere until they reach the stratosphere. There they are broken down by the intensity of the sun's UV rays and release chlorine and bromine molecules, which destroy the "good" ozone. Scientists estimate that one chlorine atom can destroy 100,000 "good" ozone molecules.

A sunflower is an angiosperm, and a gingko is a gymnosperm. Which best describes the life cycles of sunflowers and gingkoes? I.
dalvyx [7]

The correct statements are I, III and IV.

An angiosperm refers to a plant, which exhibits flowers and generates seeds enveloped within a carpel. The angiosperms include a large group of herbaceous plants, grasses, shrubs, and the majority of trees. While gymnosperms refer to the plants that exhibit seeds but not safeguarded by any kind of fruit or ovary. It includes the cycads, gingko, and conifers.

Both the angiosperm (sunflower) and gymnosperm (gingko) are seed-bearing plants. However, the seeds of a sunflower are safeguarded by a flower or fruit, while for the gingko, there is no mechanism like that, i.e, there is not any kind of protection. Additionally, sunflower exhibit phenomenon of double fertilization, which is not witnessed in the case of gingko.
