Answer: Water, in its many forms, moves all over the Earth. Water vapor moves with the air currents, falling as rain from the clouds. Frozen glaciers creep slowly down from polar regions, then recede as they warm and melt. Liquid water moves from rushing rivers to ocean currents or to groundwater.
The water, or hydrologic, cycle describes the pilgrimage of water as water molecules make their way from the Earth's surface to the atmosphere and back again, in some cases to below the surface. ... Earth's water continuously moves through the atmosphere, into and out of the oceans, over the land surface, and underground.
Explanation:
In order for plants to produce energy and maintain cellular function, their cells undergo the highly intricate process of photosynthesis. Critical in this process is the stoma. Stomata (multiple stoma) are located on the outermost cellular layer of leaves, stems, and other plant parts. An open stoma facilitates the process of photosynthesis in three ways. First, it allows light to enter the intercellular matter and trigger the process. Second, it allows for the uptake of carbon dioxide, a key chemical in producing plant energy. Third, it allows for oxygen to be expelled into the outside environment, a byproduct of photosynthesis that is no longer needed by the cell.
Answer:
Probability of having a child with genotype Ww is 50%.
Explanation:
This question involves a single gene coding for hairline shape in humans. The allele for widow's peak hairline (W) is dominant over the allele for straight hairline (w). This means that allele W will mask the phenotypic expression of allele w in a heterozygous state.
In a cross between a mother with genotype, Ww and father with genotype, ww, the following gametes will be produced by each parent:
Mother (Ww)- W and w
Father (ww)- w and w
Using these gametes in a punnet square (see attached image), four possible offsprings will be produced with genotypes: Ww, Ww, ww and ww.
Ww(2) : ww(2) or Ww(1) : ww(1)
Hence, 1 out of 2 children produced by the parents will have a genotype Ww, i.e. 1/2. Therefore, the percentage probability is 1/2 × 100= 50%.
