Answer:
The correct answer will be option - D.
Explanation:
Slime moulds are the fungus-like protists which bear a structure called sporangium which produces spores. The sporangium is produced in fungi as well due to which these protists are called fungus-like. Although both produce sporangium but they are not closely related, rather they are distantly related organisms.
The appearance of a sporangium in both indicates that they had faced the same conditions due to which they both showed the same adaptation by producing the same structures performing the same function. In evolutionary terms, this is an example of convergent evolution.
Thus, option D is the correct answer.
The question is incomplete. The complete question is:
Question: A gene for corn has two alleles, one for yellow kernels and one for white kernels. Cross pollination of yellow corn and white corn results in ears of corn that have an approximately even mix of yellow and white kernels. Which term best describes the relationship between the two alleles?
a) Incomplete dominance
b) Genetic recombination
c) Chimerism
d) Codominance
Answer:
d) codominance
Explanation:
Codominance is a pattern of inheritance when none of the alleles of a gene is able to mask the expression of the other allele of the same gene. When the two alleles are present together in a heterozygous genotype, both are expressed and the phenotype of the heterozygote is different from both the pure breeding parents. In the given example, cross-pollination of yellow corn and white corn results in the ears of corn that have an approximately even mix of yellow and white kernels. This means that the heterozygote expresses both the allele for the corn color. Therefore, it represents codominance.
A. Nonnative species that are superior competitors
The Answer is (A)
Because the pesticide will kill off the bugs and weeds but will damage the soil so after the crops you have in the ground now just will not grow there again until 1 year after the pesticide has washed away
