Answer:

4/16 (i.e. 25%)

Explanation:

A dihybrid cross is a cross between two organisms/lines/genes that are hybrids (i.e., heterozygous) for two different traits. In a standard dihybrid cross, there is a relation of complete dominance for both <em>loci</em>, i.e., there are two alleles that are completely dominant and thus mask the effects of the corresponding recessive traits. In a dihybrid cross involving two different genes that assort independently into gametes during meiosis, with dominant alleles "A" and "B" and recessive alleles "a" and "b", respectively, the expected phenotypic ratio will be 9:3:3:1 (ie. 9/16 A_B_, 3/16 A_bb, 3/16 aaB_  and 1/16 aabb), while the expected genotypic ratio of double heterozygous "AaBb" individuals will be 4/16, i.e. 25%.

Representation:

P generation   >> AaBb (father) X AaBb (mother)

Gametes (for both parents) >> 1/4 AB; 1/4 Ab; 1/4 aB; 1/4 ab

F1 generation >> 1/16 AABB; 2/16 AABb; 2/16 AaBB; 4/16 AaBb; 1/16 AAbb; 2/16 Aabb; 1/16 aaBB; 2/16 aaBb; 1/16 aabb

How are fronts classified? based of what features?
Minchanka [31]
Air masses have fairly uniform temperature and moisture content in horizontal direction (but not uniform in vertical). Air masses are characterized by their temperature and humidity properties. The properties of air masses are determined by the the underlying surface properties where they originate

Feedback mechanisms how do organisms regulate complex systems through chemical interactions
Mandarinka [93]
Organisms<span> regulate complex systems through chemical interactions through feedback mechanisms. The feedback mechanism can respond to perturbation either as positive feedback (the same direction) or a negative feedback (opposite direction). The contractions in childbirth is an example of positive feedback. The hormone oxytocin is released in the body when contraction begins to further aid the contractions. An example of negative feedback is the regulation of blood glucose level. The continuous rise of blood glucose level may lead to diabetes.</span>
