Answer:

The correct answer is - brown heterozygous Bb and blue eye bb.

Explanation:

In the provided question it is given that there are 20 babies born, 10 babies had blue eyes and 10 had brown eyes. As it is known that brown eyes are dominant over blue eyes, therefore, on the basis of this we can say that all blue-eyed babies have a bb genotype and as brown eyes are dominant traits babies must have at least one copy of the B allele which represents brown eye trait.

case1:

Parent 1 : bb

parent 2: BB

   B      B

b  Bb   Bb

b   Bb   Bb

there are 100% brown eye offspring so this is not the case

case 2:

Parent 1 : bb

parent 2: Bb

   B      b

b  Bb   bb

b   Bb   bb

here, 50% brown eyes and 50% blue eyes offspring produced thus, the parent trait will be brown heterozygous and blue eye.

Answer:

Autotrophs are organisms that use light energy or energy stored in chemical compounds to make their own food.

1st order heterotrophs are organisms that eat only plants

2nd order heterotrophs are organisms that eat herbivores

3rd order heterotrophs: organisms that eat herbivores and other carnivores

Top group: carnivores

Explanation:

Producers are named as such because they produce their own food either by photosynthesis or chemosynthesis. These organisms are called autotrophs and include plants.

There are various levels of consumers. The first is first order heterotrophs, which feed on the producers. These are herbivores and include, for example, a deer feeding on grass.

The next is second order heterotrophs, which feed on the first order heterotrophs. E.g. an owl eating a mouse. These are carnivores

The next layer are also carnivores, third order heterotrophs which eat second order heterotrophs, for example a lion eating a zebra.
