I think the correct answer from the choices listed above is option D. Modern fishing practices threaten biodiversity mainly through the removal of community food supplies. When people remove a significant amount of fish, portions of the food web are disturbed and can affect a certain ecosystem.
Answer:
The fraction of the offspring that will show the phenotype produced by the recessive c allele is 1024/4096 = 0.25 A-BbccDdE-Ff = 25%
Explanation:
You can calculate the fraction of the offspring that will show the phenotype produced by the recessive c allele by making the punnet square for each gene and then multipling the phenotypic proportions, like this:
Cross) AAbbCcDDEeff x AaBBCcddEEFF
Cross For each gene by separately:
Gametes) A A A a
F1) 2/4 AA
2/4 Aa
Gametes) b b B b
F1) 4/4 Bb
Gametes) C c C c
F1) 1/4 CC
2/4 Cc
1/4 cc
Gametes) D D d d
F1) 4/4 Dd
Gametes) E e E E
F1) 2/4 Ee
2/4 EE
Gametes) f f F F
F1) 4/4 Ff
So, fraction of the offspring that will show the phenotype produced by the recessive c allele is:
4/4 A- x 4/4 Bb x 1/4 cc x 4/4 Dd x 4/4 E- x 4/4 Ff =
1024/4096 = 0.25 A-BbccDdE-Ff =25%
People with O+ blood cannot donate their blood to negative blood types, while people with O- blood can donate to any blood type. This makes them the "universal donor." However, they can only receive O- blood.
Answer:
survival of young giraffes is related to spot pattern, which might help provide camouflage from predators. ... This study revealed that newborn giraffes with larger spots and irregularly-shaped spots had increased survival during the first few months of life.
Explanation:
Answer:
The adaptation in owl butterfly helps it to camouflage and also protects it from predators. Adaptations allow organisms to be better suited to their environment. So the answer is both 'A' and 'B' .
Explanation:
Owl butterfly use the concept of mimicry. It is a form of <em>adaptation</em> in which they fool the predator in thinking that they are owls and not butterflies. These butterflies have eyespots under their wings. By flashing them they look like the <em>eyes </em>of an owl.
Since owls feed on small animals, and small animals feed on butterflies, the owl butterflies protect themselves from predators. The small animals thinking that the butterfly is an owl, run away instead of coming closer. This way these small insects camouflage and protect themselves.
