f a rabbit breeder crossed a white rabbit and a black rabbit in a complete dominance pattern, then all of the offspring would be

either white or black in color. If the rabbits showed a pattern of incomplete dominance, breeding a white rabbit and a black rabbit together would produce all gray rabbits. Lastly, if the rabbits showed a pattern of codominance, then breeding a white rabbit and a black rabbit would produce rabbits with black and white spots. Using your knowledge of inheritance, explain how the genotypes produce different phenotypes in each inheritance pattern.

Answer:

- Complete dominance: one allele masks the expression of the other gene variant or the phenotype is caused by the absence of gene function when both alleles are recessive.

- Incomplete dominance (codominance): both alleles are expressed and contribute to the phenotype

Explanation:

Complete dominance is a type of dominance by which one allele (dominant allele) completely masks the effects of another allele (recessive allele) in heterozygous individuals (i.e., individuals carrying two different gene variants or alleles). On the other hand, codominance refers to a type of incomplete dominance where both alleles in the genotype are observed in the phenotype. Complete dominance is caused when the recessive allele is not expressed, while if both alleles are expressed it is called incomplete dominance.

Predict the type of progeny produced by Mendel's crosses between pure-breeding plants with discrete, antagonistic traits, such a
asambeis [7]

Answer:

The progeny produced is 100% heterozygous individuals.

Explanation:

Remember that in Mendel crosses, there are two alleles for each character, in this case for the color of the flowers.

When the problem refers to pure varieties, it refers to individuals with two equal alleles for the same gene.

If two pure varieties with antagonistic characters intersect, 100% of heterozygous individuals will be obtained in the offspring.

As for its phenotype, it will depend on which allele is dominant over the other.

Which pattern describes the levels of biodiversity across the fossil record?
Leto [7]
Biodiversity generally refers to the variety and variability of life on Earth. According to the United Nations Environment Programme(UNEP), biodiversity typically measures variation at the genetic, species, and ecosystem level.[1] Terrestrial biodiversity tends to be greater near the equator,[2] which seems to be the result of the warm climateand high primary productivity.[3] Biodiversity is not distributed evenly on Earth, and is richest in the tropics. These tropical forest ecosystems cover less than 10 percent of earth's surface, and contain about 90 percent of the world's species.[4] Marine biodiversitytends to be highest along coasts in the Western Pacific, where sea surface temperature is highest, and in the mid-latitudinal band in all oceans. There are latitudinal gradients in species diversity.[5]Biodiversity generally tends to cluster in hotspots,[6] and has been increasing through time,[7][8] but will be likely to slow in the future.[9]

Rapid environmental changes typically cause mass extinctions.[10][11][12] More than 99.9 percent of all species that ever lived on Earth, amounting to over five billion species,[13] are estimated to be extinct.lstimates on the number of Earth's current species range from 10 million to 14 million,[f which about 1.2 million have been documented and over 86 percent have not yet been described] More recently, in May 2016, scientists reported that 1 trillion species are estimated to be on Earth currently with only one-thousandth of one percent described.[18]The total amount of related DNA base pairson Earth is estimated at 5.0 x 1037 and weighs 50 billion tonnes.[19] In comparison, the total mass of the biosphere has been estimated to be as much as 4 TtC (trillion tons of carbon).[20] In July 2016, scientists reported identifying a set of 355 genes from the Last Universal Common Ancestor (LUCA) of all organisms living on Earth.[21]

The age of the Earth is about 4.54 billion years.[22][23][24] The earliest undisputed evidence of life on Earth dates at least from 3.5 billion years ago,[25][26][27] during the Eoarchean Era after a geological crust started to solidify following the earlier molten HadeanEon. There are microbial mat fossils found in 3.48 billion-year-old sandstone discovered in Western Australia.[28][29][30] Other early physical evidence of a biogenic substance is graphite in 3.7 billion-year-old meta-sedimentary rocks discovered in Western Greenland.More recently, in 2015, "remains of biotic life" were found in 4.1 billion-year-old rocks in Western Australia.[32][33] According to one of the researchers, "If life arose relatively quickly on Earth .. then it could be common in the universe.
