Answer:
-What types of toxins were found in the waters of the Lower Passaic Superfund site?
DDT and agent orange were found in the waters of the Lower Passaic Superfund site.
-How were some fish able to survive PCB levels thousands of times higher than sensitive fish can withstand?
in some tolerant fish, the trigger for the changes that can be caused by PCB levels are can be turned off which allows some fish to survive levels of PCB thousands of times higher than the levels affecting sensitive fish.
-What is the advantage of a large population for rapid evolution?
The advantage of rapid evolution is that the animals can survive and not get killed off.
-Do you think all species would be able to evolve adaptations to help them survive pollutants? Why or why not?
I don't think that all fish can get speedy evolutions like the killfish did because researchers think that they got a rare mutation which helped them survive. However as researchers say, in smaller populations with less diversity the chances that a rare mutation might happen is small.
-What will likely happen to these toxin-adapted fish if the waters are eventually cleaned up?
Once the water becomes clean, a tolerant fish with the mutation won't do as well as a sensitive fish would do.

Answer:
Crossing Over and Independent assortment
Explanation:
<h3><u>Answer;</u></h3>
That parental traits that were not observed in the F1 reappeared in the F2.
<h3><u>Explanation</u>;</h3>
- Mendel accounted for the observation that traits which had disappeared in the F1 generation reappeared in the F2 generation by proposing that traits can be dominant or recessive, and the recessive traits were obscured by the dominant ones in the F1.
- <em>I</em><u><em>t was important that Mendel examined not just the F1 generation in his breeding experiments, but the F2 generation as well, because parental traits that were not observed in the F1 reappeared in the F2.</em></u>
Explanation:
New ocean crust is formed at the mid ocean ridges. The new crust is then pushed away from the ridge as newer crust comes to the surface. The ocean crust then spreads out enlarging the ocean. The farer away from the ridge the ocean crust is the older the crust
Because for female sex link desease would require X°X° but for male X°Y so during crossing X linked dear are more common in male.
