To put it short, Japan was scared.
Scared of what? Well, Japan was scared of going down the same way China did. A long time ago, Japan used to isolate itself. It refused to open its harbors to foreign countries, and so fell behind technology-wise.
A ship from the United States Navy arrived on the harbor of Japan. The Japanese told the ship to back off, but it kept going on. After the Japanese showed some aggression, the ship began shelling the nearby buildings. The captain of the ship forced the leader of Japan, the shogun, to sign a treaty with them to open its harbors.
This absolutely devastated the Japanese. The belief that they were strong was devastated by the United States Navy.
Japan had a giant reform in which power was given back to the emperor and industrialization began.
The country, knowing that it had to be as modern as possible, essentially copied actions of the West.
Unfortunately, one of these actions was imperialism. Japan had an incentive to conquer other nations, and they did exactly that until WW2 ended.

Answer:
25%
Explanation:
This cross involves a single gene coding for spot color in beta fish. Green allele is C while the blue allele is c. This gene exhibits co-dominance, hence, an heterozygote beta fish (Cc) i.e. combination of both alleles, will have both phenotypes expressed to form a green and blue spotted beta fish.
If two green and blue spotted beta fishes (Cc) are crossed, each beta fish will produce gametes with C and c alleles. Using these gametes in a punnet square, four possible offsprings with the following genotypes will be produced: CC, Cc, Cc and cc.
C c
C CC Cc
c Cc cc
Hence, the percentage of offsprings expected to be green (CC genotype) is 1 out of 4possible offsprings i.e. 1/4 × 100 = 25%
The light wave could be absorbed by the object, in which case its energy is converted to heat. The light wave could be reflected by the object. And the light wave could be transmitted by the object. ... When this occurs, objects have a tendency to selectively absorb, reflect or transmit light certain frequencies.
