Answer: D.) a suggested answer to a problem
Explanation:
A hypothesis is a supposition, suggested answer or a proposed explanation based on limited evidence which can be use to start an investigation. A hypothesis is more than a guess but less than a established theory and it can be tested through study and experiments.
<u>A hypothesis is part of the scientific method </u>because it is a prediction which can be tested and the results from those experiments may disprove a hypothesis, but can never entirely prove one.
It is not a conclusion because it is an idea which tries to explain an observation. It is not information collected from experiments because hypothesis are formulated before carrying out the experiments and it is not a widely accepted idea because it just proposes a tentative explanation about a phenomenon.
Answer:
Invertebrates are the organisms in which backbone or vertebral column is absent.
The three macroinvertebrate categories are annelids, mollusks and arthropods.
Annelids are the organisms having segmented body. They are found in moist places. Examples are leeches and earth worms.
Mollusks are the organisms which are enclosed in a calcium carbonate shell. Examples are snails and slugs.
arthropods are the invertebrates which have segmented body and jointed appendages. Examples are insects and crustaceans etc.
Answer:
C. An approximately three-to-one ratio of black to brown coated mice in F2 is accounted for by the black allele being dominant over the brown allele
Explanation:
Assuming the black genotype is BB and the brown genotype is bb.
At F1:
BB x bb = All Bb (black)
At F2:
Bb x Bb = BB (black), 2Bb (Black), bb (brown)
Th ratio of black to brown is 3:1
961 black : 317 brown is approximately 3:1.
Hence, the correct option is C.
<em>An approximately three-to-one ratio of black to brown coated mice in F2 is accounted for by the black allele being dominant over the brown allele</em>
