Answer:

Freezing rain comes when the cold layer is small. This doesn't allow the raindrops to fully freeze before hitting the ground. Sleet forms when there is enough time for the raindrops to freeze completely before hitting the ground

Explanation:

Sleet is already half-frozen, while freezing rain is icey cold and freezes when it hits the ground

In a unique species of plants, flowers may be yellow, blue, red, or mauve. All colors may be true-breeding. If plants with blue

Zolol [24]

Answer:

F1) 100% bbRr, red flowered plants.

Explanation:

<u>Available data:</u>

flowers may be yellow, blue, red, or mauve
colors may be true-breeding
the cross of blue-flowered plants with red-flowered plants, produce plants that have yellow flowers
F2 generation: 9/16 yellow, 3/16 blue, 3/16 red, and 1/16 mauve.

Knowing that the phenotypic ratio is 9:3:3:1, we can assume that there are two genes involved in the flower color expression. We can name these genes B and R with a dominant and a recessive allele each (B, b and R, r respectively).

According to the first cross, we might establish the following genotypes:

1st Cross: blue-flowered plant x red-flowered plant

Parentals) BBrr x bbRR

Gametes) Br, Br, Br, Br bR, bR, bR, bR

F1) 100% BbRr, yellow plants

Parentals) BbRr x BbRr

Gametes) BR, Br, bR, br

BR, Br, bR, br

Punnett square) BR Br bR br

BR BBRR BBRr BbRR BbRr

Br BBRr BBrr BbRr Bbrr

bR BbRR BbRr bbRR bbRr

br BbRr Bbrr bbRr bbrr

F2) 9/16 yellow ---> 1/16 BBRR + 2/16 BBRr + 4/16 BbRr + 2/16 BbRR

3/16 blue ------> 1/16 BBrr + 2/16 Bbrr

3/16 red---------> 1/16 bbRR + 2/16 bbRr

1/16 mauve ----> 1/16 bbrr

So,

Yellow-flowered plants: BBRR, BBRr, BbRR, BbRr
Red-flowered plants: bbRR, bbRr
Blue-flowered plants: BBrr, Bbrr
Mauve-flowered plants: bbrr

According to these genotypes, the second cross would be like following,

2nd Cross: true-breeding red-flowered plants with true-breeding mauve flowered plants.

Parentals) bbRR x bbrr

Phenotype) Red Mauve

Gametes) bR, bR, bR, bR br, br, br, br

Punnett square) bR bR bR bR

br bbRr bbRr bbRr bbRr

F1) 100% bbRr, red flowered plants.

Why are groups of small cells better then one large cell at moving material in and out

Andrej [43]

Because these smaller cells can access and pass through the membranes of the other cell membranes and permeable coverings easily and voluntarily unlike larger cells. It is also for efficient for these smaller and miniscule cells to penetrate and travel, delivering and transporting goods and materials such as nutrients, oxygen and waste throughout the body without consuming enough energy and conserving lesser space.
For simple reasons, they are faster, more efficient and consumes little space, and most especially depletes lesser energy.

Pls help i think i did this wrong

Answer:

Explanation:

rocks moves mainly because of sea current if you are reffereing to the ones near ocean

if you are not referring to the ones near the ocean then no they do not move they only move if a human or onject moves it it has no support to even move the only rock that can be moved is called Sailing stones (also called sliding rocks, walking rocks, rolling stones, and moving rocks) are part of the geological phenomenon in which rocks move and inscribe long tracks along a smooth valley floor without animal intervention.
