The answer is A, a mountain building.
The two faces of the book represent the tectonic plates
As he presses them towards each other he is modeling a convergent boundary, and mountains are an affect of convergent plates.
Answer:
A biome is described as an area of the planet, which is classified on the basis of plants and animals living in that area. Soil, amount of light, temperature, and water are some of the important factors that determine what type of life exists in a biome.
The temperature, vegetation, and precipitation are the important characteristics of the biome.
Examples of biomes include tundra, desert etc.
Answer and Explanation:
Example of a food-web:
(1) Algae --> (2) Protozoas --> (3) Krill --> (4) Cephallopods --> (5) Medium sized dolphin --> (6) Large Dolphin
The trophic web is the process of energy transference through a series of organisms, in which every organism feeds on the preceding one and becomes food for the next one.
1) The first link is an autotroph organism or producer, such as a vegetable, that can synthesize organic matter from inorganic matter. In this example, the autotroph organisms are algae, that make use of sunlight and inorganic matter.
The next links are the consumers:
2) Herbivores are primary consumers and feed on producers. In this example, herbivore organisms are protozoan.
3) Krills are the secondary consumers and feed on protozoans.
4) Some species of cephalopods feed on krill, among other species.
5) Specialized Cetaceans such as the Risso´s dolphin, feed especially on cephalopods, as they lack upper teeth and they only have a few teeth in their jaws.
6) The killer whale is a big sized-dolphin and a very important predator. It feeds on many animals, and one of them is the Risso´s dolphin.
Answer:
Alleles for feather colour exhibit incomplete dominance or co-dominance.
50% gray offspring + 50% black offspring
Explanation:
<em>It means that the alleles for feather colour in the hen exhibit incomplete dominance or co-dominance over one another.</em>
Assuming the allele for white colour is B, white colour will be b while the heterozygote Bb gives the gray phenotype.
Gray rooster + gray hen = 15 gray chicks, 6 black chicks and 8 white chicks.
15:6:8 is roughly 2:1:1 which is phenotypic ratio obtainable from crossing two heterozygous individuals as pointed out by Mendel.
Bb x Bb = 1BB, 2Bb, and 1bb
Crossing the gray rooster (Bb) with a black hen (bb):
Bb x bb = Bb, Bb, bb, and bb
= 2Bb (gray):2bb (black)
50% of the offspring will be gray while the remaining 50% will be black.
