The answer is photosynthesis.
To solve this problem on genetic dominance, we will need a punnet square.
Let's let P represent purple-flowered and p represent white-flowered.
We have one purple flowered plant with the alleles PP, and we have one white flowered plant with the alleles pp. Using a punnet square, we can determine the alleles of the offspring.
<u>P</u> <u>P</u>
p| Pp Pp
p | Pp Pp
As we can tell from our punnet square, all of our offspring will have purple flowers. This is because the purple-flower allele is dominant and the white-flowered allele is recessive.
Since each flower has a dominant and recessive allele, they are heterozygous.
Therefore, the solution to this problem is D.
Answer and Explanation:
a. According to Lamarck, the origin of the long hind legs of the Ord's kangaroo rat is acquired due to extensive use of the muscle legs to jump. Such physical characteristics could be transmitted to future generations. This theory is called Neo-Lamarckism.
b. Darwin, on the other hand, theorized that in a population of Ord's kangaroo rat, there was an individual whose characteristics, long tail and hind legs, had more chances of escaping its predator and, consequently, could survive and reproduce. This theory is called Darwinism.
Answer:
Correlation means that there is a relationship between two or more variables (such as ice cream consumption and crime), but this relationship does not necessarily imply cause and effect. When two variables are correlated, it simply means that as one variable changes, so does the other. We can measure correlation by calculating a statistic known as a correlation coefficient. A correlation coefficient is a number from -1 to +1 that indicates the strength and direction of the relationship between variables. The correlation coefficient is usually represented by the letter r.
Explanation:
This is evidenced by Doppler
shift effect. This is the phenomenon where waves that are coming from an object
that is accelerating towards your direction are heard at a higher frequency than that of
objects moving away from you. This is the same for light (which also has
wave-like properties). When observing distant galaxies, astronomers discovered that
they all showed to be redshift (change in the frequency of light towards red
color). This means that all galaxies are moving away from each other because
the universe is expanding.
