In a population of weasels, black (R) is the dominant color and white (W) is the other dominant trait. In weasels, fur color fol

lows a pattern of codominance. The heterozygous genotype produces black and white spotted weasels. Consider the genetic cross shown in Punnett square. If there are 60 baby weasels born as a result of the cross, how many should be spotted?

Well, you don't specify the parent traits, so I'll just do one for each...

If both parents are homozygous RR, then all 60 of the babies will be black

If both parents are homozygous WW, then all 60 of the babies will be white 

If both parents are heterozygous RW, then there will be 15 black babies, 15 white babies, and 30 spotted babies. 

If one parent is homozygous RR and one is homozygous WW, then all of the babies will be spotted

If one parent is homozygous RR and one is heterozygous RW, then 30 of the babies will be black, and 30 will be spotted

If one parent is homozygous WW and one is heterozygous RW, then 30 of the babies will be white, and 30 will be spotted.

Genetic variation helps populations adapt to a changing
timama [110]

Answer:

Please find the explanation below

Explanation:

Sexual reproduction is the kind of reproduction that requires two organisms (male and female) to form an offspring. The male organism produces gametes called SPERM while the female organism produces gametes called EGG. These two gametes come together in a process called FERTILIZATION to produce a zygote, which develops into an offspring.

In sexual reproduction, gametes are produced by organisms involved via a process called MEIOSIS. Meiosis, however, reduces the chromosome number of the gametes by half. However, one process unique to only meiosis and sexual reproduction is called CROSSING OVER.

Crossing over is the process whereby chromosome segments is exchanged between non-sister chromatids of homologous chromosome. This process causes a recombination of chromosomes (alleles) in such a way that the gametes will be genetically different from the parent organisms (genetic variation). According to this question, sexual reproduction leads to more genetic variation than asexual reproduction due to the process of CROSSING OVER that occurs in sexual reproduction.

Agar is an important component of media because A. bacteria require agar to grow.
Alik [6]

C. Agar provides a solid surface for bacterial growth.

Agar is a substance obtained from red algae which when added to a culture media, provides a solid surface for the growth of bacteria. When the agar is not added then the culture media remains as the broth and when the agar is added then the broth gets solidified.

Agar is added 1.5-2% in the broth to get solidified. The growth of the bacteria depends on the amount of agar added. Agar is used for the growth of bacteria because it has gel like properties which holds the nutrients evenly and the bacteria can use it accordingly.

Does commensalism involve abiotic factors or biotic factors ? ​
monitta

Answer:

Commensalism only occur among biotic factors

Explanation:

Abiotic factors are non-living factors that interacts with the biotic factor within an ecosystem. Commensalism is an association between two organisms in which one benefits and the other derives neither benefit nor harm.

From the above definition of commensalism, it is clear to note that it only involves two organisms rather than non-living organisms, hence; commensalism involves only biotic factors
