You cross two true-breeding parents (one with yellow seeds and one with green seeds), grow and self-pollinate the F1 generation,
Andru [333]

Answer:

1500

Explanation:

Let's assume that the allele for yellow seed color is "Y" and the allele for green seed color is "y". Genotype of pure breeding yellow seeded plant would be "YY" and that of the green seeded plant would be "yy". A cross between YY and yy gives all heterozygous yellow seeded plants (Yy) in F1 progeny. Self pollination of two F1 plants (Yy x Yy) obtains F2 generation in 3 yellow: 1 green ratio.

The total population size of F2 generation = 2000

The proportion of yellow seeded plants in F2 generation = 3/4 (since the F2 phenotype ratio is given 3 yellow: 1 green)

Therefore, total number of yellow seeded plants in F2 progeny = 3/4 x 2000= 1500

Julie wrote down the list below of the reasons why she thinks that humans should stop relying on fossil fuels.
forsale [732]

Julie listed out fossil fuels are a non-renewable source of energy and Fossil fuels are becoming more expensive.

Option C

<h3><u>Explanation:</u></h3>

Fossil fuels are defined as the type of non renewable energy which is formed as a result of dead and decaying organic matter over thousands of years under pressure and temperature of Earth’s core.

This type of fuels are formed due to the dumping of dead prehistoric organisms like dinosaur and others under the soil under a tremendous pressure and very high temperature, where they are acted upon by bacteria and other chemicals to reduce them into petroleum and coal. These are totally non renewable and they are getting expensive over days due to shortage of availability.
