<span>A. abiotic component</span>
An ecosystem involves both the biological (plants, animals, human beings) and non-biological (land, water, soil, and atmosphere) community which interacts as a system. More importantly, the living things are very dependent on the abiotic community since it cannot survive by itself. Every animal, plant and human needs the primary physiological needs of water, food and shelter provided by the abiotic system.
Answer:
1 Photosynthesis uses CO2 and expels O2 and the reverse for respiration
2. stratosphere where ~90% of it is
3. Less infrared radiation is able to escape from the earth into space and that infrared radiation hits the GHG gases and the radiation is turned into kinetic or heat energy trapping which warms up the earth
Explanation:
Answer:
The chloroplast is involved in both stages of photosynthesis. The light reactions take place in the thylakoid. There, water (H2O) is oxidized, and oxygen (O2) is released. The electrons that freed from the water are transferred to ATP and NADPH
Answer:
the frequency of the resistant allele after one generation is 0.989
Explanation:
Given that :
A farmer plants Bt cotton that is genetically modified to produce its own insecticide.
Of the cotton bollworms feeding on these Bt plants, only 5% survive
i.e the survival rate s = 5% =0.05
unless they have at least one copy of the dominant resistance allele R that confers resistance to the Bt insecticide
Frequency of R allele = 0.01
In order to determine what will the frequency of the resistance allele be after one generation of cotton bollworms fed on Bt cotton; we need to first determine the frequency of the recessive allele r.
According to Hardy-Weinberg Equilibrium ;
p+q = 1
Let p = R and q = r
R + r = 1
0.01 + r = 1
r = 1 - 0.01
r = 0.99
Now; the frequency of the resistance allele after one generation can be calculated as :

where ;
q' = R
q = r



q' = 0.989
Thus; the frequency of the resistant allele after one generation is 0.989
Answer:
first blank is two, second blank is four
Explanation:
Mitosis results in <u>two</u> genetically identical cells.
Meiosis results in <u>four</u> sex cells.
