Answer:
Option D, The DDT killed susceptible flies. The few that were already naturally resistant survived and passed this resistance on to their offspring.
Explanation:
When DDT was sprayed for the first time, some of the house flies which were not capable enough to withstand the adverse effects of DDT , eventually died. And the butterflies that survived through this, were having a natural resistance against DDT. Now, with time these DDT resistant houseflies mated and produced offspring that had genetic trait of resisting DDT by birth. This is the reason, why houseflies after ten years were as abundant as ten years back when the control program was started.
Option D is correct
Answer:
12 : 3 : 1
Explanation:
According to Mendel's principles, a dihybrid cross between two heterozygous summer squash parents (WwGg X WwGg) should yield offsprings, 12 with white, 3 with yellow and 1 with green color phenotype. The classic Mendelian phenotypic ratio for dihybrid cross is 9:3:3:1. In this case, genotypes W- G- and W- gg produce white color phenotype. This is because we have 12: 3: 1 phenotypic ratio in which the alleles of two different genes assort independently into gametes.
<em>Dihybrid cross for heterozygous summer squash:</em>
WG Wg wG wg
WG WWGG WWGg WwGG WwGg
Wg WWGg WWgg WwGg Wwgg
wG WwGG WwGg wwGG wwGg
wg WwGg Wwgg wwGg wwgg
Genotypes:
W-G- and W- gg = white = 12
ww G- = yellow = 3
ww gg = green = 1

The shape and folded structure of a protein molecule are important in determining its function
Enzymes create chemical reactions in the body. They actually speed up the rate of a chemical reaction to help support life. The enzymes in your body help to perform very important tasks
Because it could cause waste to build up in your body thus leading to more problems such as heart disease
