Color in poison dart frogs is controlled by a single gene with multiple alleles. A blue poison dart frog that is heterozygous fo

r the blue allele (Cb) and red allele (Cr) is crossed to a yellow poison dart frog that is heterozygous for the orange (Co) and yellow (Cy) alleles. Their progeny are 1/2 blue, 1/4 orange, and 1/4 yellow. Determine the order of dominance for the alleles. (Order of dominance is indicated as: A > B > C > D such that A is dominant over all alleles, B is dominant over C and D, C is dominant only to D, and D is recessive to all alleles.)

Answer:

Cb>Cy>Co>Cr

Explanation:

First of al we need to do the Punnett square. As a result we get the genotypes:

CyCb

CyCr

CoCb

CoCr

Because there are no red frogs, red is the least dominant as it isn't expressed in any genotype.

Half of the progeny are blue and half of the possible genotypes contain the blue allele meaning that blue is expressed in all genotypes. This means that blue is the most dominant.

The only alleles left are yellow and orange. We can deduce that yellow is more dominant than orange because one of the parent frogs is yellow and contains the genes for yellow and orange.

As a result blue is the most dominant, yellow is the second most dominant, orange is the third most dominant and red is the least dominant.

Describes how energy is produced from the power of water. In your answer, include the terms: ocean water, turbine, electricity,
lapo4ka [179]

Most hydroelectric power plants have a dam and a reservoir. These structures may obstruct fish migration and affect their populations. Operating a hydroelectric power plant may also change the water temperature and the river's flow. These changes may harm native plants and animals in the river and on land. Reservoirs may cover people's homes, important natural areas, agricultural land, and archaeological sites. So building dams can require relocating people. Methane, a strong greenhouse gas, may also form in some reservoirs and be emitted to the atmosphere. Reservoir construction is "drying up" in the United States  Gosh, hydroelectric power sounds great -- so why don't we use it to produce all of our power? Mainly because you need lots of water and a lot of land where you can build a dam and reservoir, which all takes a LOT of money, time, and construction. In fact, most of the good spots to locate hydro plants have already been taken. In the early part of the century hydroelectric plants supplied a bit less than one-half of the nation's power, but the number is down to about 10 percent today. The trend for the future will probably be to build small-scale hydro plants that can generate electricity for a single community.  As this chart shows, the construction of surface reservoirs has slowed considerably in recent years. In the middle of the 20th Century, when urbanization was occurring at a rapid rate, many reservoirs were constructed to serve peoples' rising demand for water and power. Since  Hydroelectric energy is produced by the force of falling water. The capacity to produce this energy is dependent on both the available flow and the height from which it falls. Building up behind a high dam, water accumulates potential energy. This is transformed into mechanical energy when the water rushes down the sluice and strikes the rotary blades of turbine. The turbine's rotation spins electromagnets which generate current in stationary coils of wire. Finally, the current is put through a transformer where the voltage is increased for long distance transmission over power lines.   Hydroelectric-power production in the United States and the world!

What factor defines all groups in the Köppen system, with the exception of dry climates? evaporation precipitation air pressure
Liula [17]

Answer:

temperature

Explanation:

I choose temperature because it tells how hot,cold,dry and warm somethings are meanwhile evaporation is when water changes from liquid to gas,so that means water gets hot.

Precipitation is when water released from the cloud to form rain,freezing rain,sleet,snow,or hail.Which means thing get cold.

Air pressure also affect evaporation, which means that water will not be able to come up of the surface of a body of water.So that means the the pressure will be pushing down on the surface of the water.

How do cells use digested food?
Sergio [31]

The digestive system uses mechanical and chemical methods to break food down into nutrient molecules that can be absorbed into the blood. ... Some animals ues intracellular digestion, where food is taken into cells by phagocytosis with digestive enzymes being secreted into the phagocytic vesicles.

The pH scale measures the acidity of a substance. It is a negative logarithmic scale. A pH of 3 has a hydrogen ion concentration
Hitman42 [59]

Answer:

The correct answer is: a pH 2 solution has a <u>10000 times</u> greater hydrogen ion concentration than a pH 6 solution.

Explanation:

The pH scale is a measurement used to describe the acidity of a solution, and this acidity is given by the concentration of H+ (hydrogen ion) in said substance. A solution with a greater concentration of H+, is more acid than a solution with a smaller concentration of H+ and, therefore, has a lower pH. Given that the pH scale is a negative logarithmic scale, a solution with a pH of 3 has a ten times greater H+ concentration than a solution with a pH of 4.

A pH 2 solution has 10 times more H+ ion concentration than a pH 3 solution, 100 times more H+ ion concentration than a pH 4 solution, 1000 times more H+ ion concentration than a pH 5 solution, and 10000 times more H+ ion concentration than a pH 6 solution.
