Answer:

The correct answer is - 1:2:1 for black : blue : white chicken.

Explanation:

We know that color of the feather is a trait of the chicken that shows the codominance type of inheritance pattern where both forms of the trait are dominant and make a mix of the forms. In this case, blue is heterozygous BW and black BB and white is WW, then crossed between BW with BW

gametes: B, W and B, W

           B       W

B        BB      BW

W        BW     WW

thus, the phenotypic ration is - 1 black : 2 blue : 1 white

What interactions are occurring that allow the water to move against gravity in capillary action? Select three options.
solniwko [45]

Answer:

Adhesion and surface tension

Explanation:

Capillary action is the tendency of a liquid to rise or fall in a narrow tube. Two main terms are required to explain capillary action; adhesion and cohesion.

Cohesion is the force of attraction between molecules of the same kind while adhesion is the force of attraction between molecules of different kinds.

Forces of adhesion causes water to move up in a capillary tube. The water is held as it rises by surface tension forces acting on the circumference of the meniscus. The water keeps rising in the tube until the weight of the water drawn up in the tube balances the surface tension acting at the top column of the water.
