How is selective breeding carried out in plants? Explain with two examples.

Biology
1 answer:
grandymaker [24]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

A plant is first selected by identifying the plant with phenotype of interest, such that good genes combination for desirable trait are picked out. The plant is then allowed to grow and self fertilise or cross fertilise with other plants of similar phenotype of interest.

Examples:

We can take advantage of this to selectively breed animals or plants, choosing parents with particular characteristics to produce offspring that have those characteristics. For example, if we breed tall parents together and exclude shorter parents, the offspring should inherit “tall” gene variants that make them tall.

If a species makes up a small portion of the community by weight, yet exerts a disproportionate influence on community diversity
Marrrta [24]

Answer:

The correct answer will be- Keystone species

Explanation:

The structure of a community is largely determined by the number of species present in the community called species richness and the species diversity.

The species which can play an important role in determining the community could be of two types the foundation species and keystone species.

The species which directly influence the diversity of a community irrespective of their number and abundance is known as the keystone species.

In the given question since the question has discussed the species which disproportionately influence the diversity of the community is known as keystone species.

Thus, keystone species is the correct answer.

Speculate on how higher sea-surface temperatures (sst) might impact earth's greenhouse effect.
Aleks [24]

The SST or sea surface temperature refers to the temperature of the water close to the surface of the ocean. Sea surface temperature influences the behavior of the atmosphere of the Earth, so their initialization into the atmospheric model is essential. While SST plays a vital role for tropical cyclogenesis, it is also essential in predicting the formation of sea breezes and sea fog.  

The changes in SST reflects the overall trend of warming of the climatic system, and in turn, affects the climate and weather patterns globally. If the SST is too warm, the humidity upsurges and the greenhouse effect enhances.
