Answer:

would be smaller

Explanation:

During his work, Darwin observed that the size and shape of finches' beaks varied between islands as a consequence of the food type and food availability in each island. Darwin proposed that this phenotypic variation was a response to natural selection, i.e., those organisms with more suitable beaks in their corresponding environments (i.e., islands) would be better adapted to survive and reproduce, thereby passing their genes to the next generations. In consequence, in this case, it is expected that the average size of finch beaks will be smaller because environmental factors prevent the growth of large seeds.

What means RNA and it shape in the biology
MaRussiya [10]

The Answer is ribonucleic acid, a nucleic acid present in all living cells. Its principal role is to act as a messenger carrying instructions from DNA for controlling the synthesis of proteins, although in some viruses RNA rather than DNA carries the genetic information.

RNA is typically single stranded and is made of ribonucleotides that are linked by phosphodiester bonds.

I hope this helps you:)

tall heterozygous pea plants were crossed and the resulting seeds grown. Out of 360 plants, 270 were tall and 90 dwarf. What des
lozanna [386]

Answer:

This question lacks options, the options are:

A. All 270 tall plants were heterozygous

B. All 270 tall plants were homzygous.

C. Only 90 plants were homzygous.

D. All dwarf plants were homzygous.

The answer is D.

Explanation:

This question involves a single gene coding for height in pea plants. The allele for tallness (T) is dominant over that of dwarfness (t). This means that a dwarf plant can only be homzygous recessive (tt) while a tall plant can either be homzygous (TT) or heterozygous (Tt).

According to the question, two tall heterozygous pea plants were crossed i.e. Tt × Tt. Based on this cross, a phenotypic ratio of 3:1 is expected, which is in accordance with the 270 tall plants and 90 dwarf plants (360 total) that was obtained in the cross. Since dwarfism in pea plants is a recessive trait, this means that all the dwarf plants produced in this cross (90) were homzygous (tt).
