Answer:
The genotype of both parents is RrYy.
The possible types of gametes would be RY, Ry, rY, and ry.
The cross would produce offspring that can have one out of four types of phenotypes:
- Round and yellow seeds (1 RRYY+ 2 RrYY +2 RRYy + 4 RrYy) = 9/16
- Wrinkled and yellow seeds (3 rrYy) = 3/16
- Round and green seeds (1 RRyy + 2 Rryy) = 3/16
- Wrinkled and green seeds (rryy) = 1/16
Thus, one out of 16 offspring would have wrinkled and green seeds.
Answer:
D.20,000
Explanation:
The Gross Annual Primary Productivity for the wetland ecosystem is the amount of carbon taken up by the aquatic producers through photosynthesis.
Given that: Net Annual Primary Producer is 8,000 kcal/m2 per year, and respiration by the aquatic producers is 12,000 kcal/m2 per year, using the formula NPP = GPP – Respiration, we can determine the Gross Annual Primary Productivity of the wetland ecosystem.
NNP = 8,000 kcal/m2
Respiration = 12,000 kcal/m2
GPP = x
8,000 = x – 12,000 (NPP = GPP – Respiration)
Solve for x:
x = 8,000 + 12,000
x = 20,000 kcal/m2 per year
GPP = 20,000 kcal/m2 per year
