Answer:
1/4
Explanation:
Given that the F2 cross produces offspring according to the expected 9:3:3:1 ratio.
YyRr X YyRr:
Let us break the dihybrid cross into individual monohybrid crosses.
Yy X Yy :
Y y
Y YY Yy
y Yy yy
2/4 or 1/2 of the offspring are heterozygous for the trait.
Similarly, in Rr X Rr cross, 1/2 of the offspring are heterozygous for the trait.
Together, 1/2 * 1/2 = 1/4 of F2 plants are expected to be heterozygous for both traits.
The instrument of choice would be the the clam shell sampler, which is also know as a grab sampler. Another instrument they use is the piston corer which is an open tube on a cable that gets dropped from a ship.
Answer:
The correct answer will be:
1. Mutualism
2. Competition
3. Commensalism
Explanation:
In an ecosystem the organism interacts with each other in one of the following ways:
1. <u>Competition</u>- interaction occurs when two or more than two species depend on the same resources, sharing the same habitat and niche. These species will fight for the resources and both will be negatively affected.
2. <u>Commensalism-</u> interaction takes place when one organism is benefited while the other is neither harmed nor gained. For example- the interaction between Remora fish and large fish in the ocean.
3. <u>Mutualism</u> -occurs when the species are dependent on each other for the resources and both benefits each other. For example- the plants and birds co-evolved benefiting each other like animals helps in pollination and plants provide nectar to them.
Thus, the selected options are the correct answer.
The main reason for the difference in the mass extinction occurring today and previously is the pace of the current extinction. The extinction is taking place globally and involves hundreds of species at the same time. In less than 50 years, we have lost numerous species. In contrast to this, previously during the mass extinction, only a few species were lost, and other managed to survive. But, not the status is opposite due to the magnitude of the extinction.
