ANTONII [103]

Answer: Mendel would have concluded that one pair of factors (genes) is responsible for two different characters in plants.

Explanation:

The 9:3:3:1  ratio observed by Mendel helped him to form his <em>Law of Independent Assortment </em>which states that the inheritance of one pair of factors (genes) is independent of the inheritance of the other pair.

Also from his previous studies, he obtained a 3:1 ratio for a single gene expression, flower color, which enabled to form <em> the Law of Segregation</em>, which states individuals possess two alleles and a parent passes only one allele to his/her offspring.

However, if he had observed a 3:1 ratio for two traits, he would have concluded that inheritance of characters occurs in pairs i.e., that a pair of alleles is responsible for two different characters in plants.

Describe how the students would use the apparatus to show that there were microorganisms present in the air in the laboratory. Remember to think carefully about experimental design and how to make the results reliable.

Title: using apparatus to know the presence of microorganisms

aims and objectives: description of presence of microorganisms in the air

materials and method: petri dish, agar, distilled water, hand gloves, nose mask, pipette e.t.c

methodology: pipette is used to measure the amount of water in a petri dish and placed outside where hands can not be touched for 24 hours, after then the water is taken to the lab and agar is added for bacteria growth, after 24 hours, if the microbial growth is seen on the cultured plate, then it shows that the air is contaminated with microorganism which mixes with water when exposed to air

​what experience is similar to losing proprioception? a. walking on a leg that has "fallen asleep"​ b. teeth chattering in the c
vodomira [7]

<span>Losing proprioception is when the specialized sensory receptors on nerve endings found in muscles, joints, tendons and inner ear is not working properly. Their ability to receive and send information on the positioning of the body and movement can execute protective reflexes to prevent an injury. Thus, walking on a leg that has ‘fallen asleep” is similar to losing proprioception which joint stability is not present.</span>

A woman treated her home with a pesticide that kills spiders. The first application killed 78% of the spiders. Two months later
WARRIOR [948]
Natural selection. Only spiders that were more resistant to the pesticide lived through the first spraying of the pesticide, thus we're the only ones that could reproduce. This in turn made the offspring of the previous generation more resistant as well; thus making the pesticide less effective.
