Answer:

Explanation:The respiratory system brings oxygen into the lungs when you breathe. The digestive system breaks food down into nutrients such as glucose. Now the circulatory system enters the picture. It transports glucose and other nutrients from the digestive system to the cells.

Determine the phenotypic ratios of the offspring. 9 yellow-inflated : 3 yellow-constricted : 3 green-inflated: 1 green-constrict

skad [1K]

From a cross between dihybrid individuals, whose diallelic genes code for one trait each, expressing complete dominance, the phenotypic ratio is B) 9 green-inflated : 3 green-constricted : 3 yellow-inflated :1 yellow-constricted.

-------------------------------

Since I do not have the cross, I will assume the cross involves two dihybrid individuals by looking at the options.

So, let us picture the situation,

Two diallelic genes code for one trait each, color and inflated/constricted pods.
G allele is the dominant and codes for green pods
g allele is recessive and codes for yellow pods
I is the dominant allele and codes for inflated pods
i is recessive and codes for constricted pods
These genes are not linked

1st Cross) Two h0m0zyg0us individuals

Parental) GGII x ggii

F1) 100% GgIi

2nd Cross) Selfcross between F1 individuals

Parentals) GgIi x GgIi

Gametes) GI, Gi, gI, gi

GI, Gi, gI, gi

Punnett square) GI Gi gI gi

GI GGII GGIi GgII GgIi

Gi GGIi GGii GgIi Ggii

gI GgII GgIi ggII ggIi

gi GgIi Ggii ggIi ggii

F2) Genotype

1/16 GGII
2/16 GGIi
1/16 GGii
2/16 GgII
4/16 GgIi
2/16 Ggii
1/16 ggII
2/16 ggIi
1/16 ggii

Phenotype

9/16 G-I- ⇒ Green and Inflated
3/16 G-ii ⇒ Green and constricted
3/16 ggI- ⇒ Yellow and inflated
1/16 ggii ⇒ Yellow and constricted

Phenotypic ratio 9:3:3:1

Options

A) 9 yellow-inflated : 3 yellow-constricted : 3 green-inflated: 1 green-constricted ⇒ NOT CORRECT

B) 9 green-inflated : 3 green-constricted : 3 yellow-inflated : 1 yellow-constricted ⇒ CORRECT

C) 9 green-constricted : 3 green-inflated : 3 yellow-constricted : 1 yellow-inflated ⇒ NOT CORRECT

D) 9 yellow-constricted : 3 yellow-inflated : 3 green-constricted : 1 green-inflated ⇒ NOT CORRECT

A marine algae called Emiliana huxleyi can overgrow, creating an algal bloom covering thousands of square kilometers of ocean. A

malfutka [58]

Answer:

Carbon

Explanation:

Emiliana huxleyi is a coccolithophore, a eukaryotic unicellular alga that grows in the oceans of the world, from the tropic to the subarctic areas. It has an external calcite skeleton, which is equivalent to aproximately one thirth of the CaCO₃ marine production. Under favorable conditions, this species can overgrow producing blooms, which are giant aggregations that can cover several square kilometers. These blooms can seriously affect the aquatic ocean life on a global level by running out nutrients and forbidding sunlight to reach certain depth levels.

When these blooms are infected with a specific virus called EhV, their calcic carbonate exoskeletons explode dispersing particles in water and releasing carbon and minerals back to the oceans. EhV viruses act as a biological control for these blooms.
