Answer:

The sex chromosomes (X and Y) determine whether a cat will be male or female. Each cat has a pair of sex chromosomes with the possible combinations of XX (female) and XY (male). The X chromosome also carries the coding gene for the black and orange colors in a calico's coat.

Explanation:

Female calico cats have two X chromosomes and therefore have two chromosomes with color code. Only if the cat gets one orange-coded X and one black-coded X, will she be calico, expressing both black and orange coloration.

Because male cats have one X chromosome with code for black or orange and one Y chromosome with no color genes, they cannot technically be calico. They'll only express either black or orange, but not both.

Give a brief explanation of why food webs are preferred over food chains for representing the flow of energy in an ecosystem.
olga nikolaevna [1]
<h3><u>The Food webs are preferred over food chains for representing the flow of energy in an ecosystem for the following reasons: </u></h3>
  • The food webs are higher in complexity when compared to food chains and also, in food web, more than one primary producers is present which increases the 'flow of energy' in the ecosystem.
  • Food web represents the real life better than the food chains do.
  • Food web shows many different paths through which the organisms can be connected.
