Answer:

The correct answer is option d)"the percentage of pink flowers should increase over time".

Explanation:

In this study it is stated that two factors affect the flower coloration of <em>Claytonia virginica</em>: slugs preference of eating pink-flowering plants and bees preference of pollinating pink-flowering plants as well. If the researcher removes all slugs from the study population we can expect that the percentage of pink flowers should increase over time. The removal of the predator that prefers eating pink-flowering plants will favor the reproduction of this type of plants, which are also favored by bees pollination preference.

Gregor mendel crossbred pea plants for a variety of traits. What did he learn about dominant and recessive traits?
vladimir1956 [14]
Gregor Mendel crossbred two different pea plants. One of the plants had yellow peas (a dominant trait) and one of the plants had green peas (a recessive trait). The yellow pea plant was heterozygous for its trait meaning its alleles will be Yy. The green plant, because it is recessive, was homozygous for its trait, yy. When these plants were crossbred, two of the offspring resulted in heterozygous for the yellow trait and the other two offspring were homozygous for the green trait.

Blood cells are _____ in shape because they lack a nucleus.
sesenic [268]


Red blood cells are disc shaped. It is thought one factor that allows them to have this shape is because they do not have a nucleus. This tends to increase amount of space inside the cell for hemoglobin.

They have a flexible disc shape which helps increase the surface- to- area volume ratio  which enables oxygen and carbon dioxide to diffuse across the red blood cell's plasma membrane more readily.

Their disc shape also enables them to squeeze through tiny capillaries that are half their size .
