A scientist named Thomas Hunt Morgan studied genetics in fruit flies. Specifically he looked at wild type (normal) wings versus

vestigial (shortened) wings. When he crossed a wild type female with a vestigial male he expected to see 50% parental phenotypes and 50% recombinant phenotypes in the offspring. However, what he actually found was 83% parental phenotypes and 17% recombinant phenotypes. What does this suggest about the genes he was studying? How do the percentages help us determine this?

Answer:

More offspring resembles to parents.

Explanation:

The percentages help us to determine that the parental genes are dominant in the offspring and more percentage of offspring resembles to the parents whereas low percentage of offspring are hybrid in nature. Hybrid means the offspring which are different from their parents or having new characteristics. So the results shows that 83% offspring resembles to their parents whereas 17% offspring are totally different from the parents.

What is a example of adaptive radiation
madreJ [45]

Example: Darwin’s Finches

In evolutionary biology, adaptive radiation is a process in which organisms rapidly diversify from ancient species to a wide range of new forms, in particular when environmental changes provide for new resources, create new challenges or open new niches to the environment.

Which muscle of the quadriceps femoris originates on the highlighted structure?
DENIUS [597]
Because there is no indication of what's the highlighted structure I'm going to tell you where all the four muscles of the quadriceps femoris originate from.
The vastus lateralis originates on the greater trochanter and the lateral lip of linea aspera. The vastus intermedius originates on the lateral and anterior surfaces of the femur's body. The vastus medialis originates on the medial lip of the linea aspera and the intertrochanteric line. R<span>ectus femoris originates, </span>superior to the acetabulum, on <span>the ilium.</span>
