A family business had bred dogs for over 250 years. During this time, 125 generations of dogs were bred for a single trait: prot

ective instincts. Immediately after
birth, the puppies are sorted based on whether or not they have a white patch of fur on their chests. Those without this trait, are no longer bred for their
business and instead are adopted to pet stores and not private sales for people requesting the desired trait of protective instincts.
How could the breeders know these other dogs will not have the traits they are looking for when they are just new-born puppies?

Answer:

They can know if the trait has been carried on by looking at the bred dogs that have the trait and determining if the trait has been passed down by similar characteristics between the parent with the trait and the puppy that could have the trait.

• The (Initial) segment is composed of the axon hillock. This segment contains voltage-gated channels.

• The (Conductive) segment is equivalent to the length of the axon. It contains voltage-gated channels.

What do scientific models predict will happen to Earth's oceans if current trends continue unmitigated?
Bogdan [553]

The answer is D. Global warming causes the ocean temperatures to rise and also its pH to decrease due to increased dissolved carbon dioxide in the waters. Due to the unfavorable temperatures and pH, the algae dissociate from the symbiotic relationship with coral polyps (as a survival mechanism) hence leaving the coral white (coral bleaching). The symbiotic relationship is key for the survival of the coral polyps hence most die following the dissociation. This upsets the reef ecosystem and affects all aquatic organisms that depend on the reef.

Answer:

5: The phenotype for both parents is being tall.

6: 25%

7: 50%

8: 25%

Explanation:

5: We are shown that tall plants are dominant over short plants, and the genotypes of both parents are Tt (tall, short). This means that both parents will be tall.

6: The Punnet Square shows us that 1 out of 4 offspring are TT, 1/4 is 25%

7: The Punnet Square shows us that 2 out of 4 offspring are Tt, 2/4 is 50%

8: The Punnet Square shows us that 1 out of 4 offspring are tt, 1/4 is 25%
