Answer:

The statement that best explains the mechanisms of inheritance of gene "The allele for blue is an X-linked dominant allele because there are no blue male offspring in cross 2."

Explanation:

The mechanism for inheritance of gene is the condition, in which the mutation when happens in one allele and cause the effect in the relevant phenotype. Similar inheritance will also be seen when the mutated allele will produce new type of the protein which will have deletorious effect on the normal function of the cell. In case of the single gene, autosomal dominant, autosomal recessive, X-linked dominant, X- linked recessive and mitochondrial are modes of inheritance.

Which of the following adaptations is typical of marine mammals?
Elodia [21]

I believe the answer is a. thick layer of blubber


Mammal is an warm-blooded animal that need to keep their body warm. Organ that could insulate the heat would be beneficial to keep the temperature, like layer of fat or thick fur. The example of marine mammals would be dolphin, whale, sea lion and polar bear. Thick fur will not give much benefit for mammals in water, so only polar bear have thick fur. But all of them has thick layer of blubber, so option A will be the most appropriate.

Which tool is most likely used during a field investigation?
Marina86 [1]
Most likely an altimeter,
microscopes can be too heavy to carry outside,
 x-ray diffraction is used to determine the molecular structure of a crystal so that is not likely to be helpful,
but an altimeter determines the altitude of an object on a fixed level, so that can be useful during a field investigation
hydrometers-measure gravity of liquids, probably not useful for a field investigation
