Why has the kingdom protista been abandoned? see concept 28.1 (page 592) view available hint(s) why has the kingdom protista bee
liberstina [14]
The answer is the second and third answers. Kingdom Protista is a polyphyletic taxon, meaning they did not evolve from one common ancestor, unlike what you see from a monophyletic taxon. Because they come from multiple ancestors, they share more similarities with other organisms from other kingdoms, rather than themselves.

Explain the difference between a monohybrid cross and a dihybrid cross, and give an example of each.
Kay [80]
Monohybrid crosses only look at one genotype. Whereas dihybrid crosses look at two genotypes.
An example of a monohybrid cross would be AA x aa, where A represents the dominant allele, and its phenotype is the colour red, and a represents the recessive allele, and its phenotype is the colour white. 
An example of a dihybrid cross would be SSYY x SsYy, where the letter S represents the size, dominant phenotype is large, recessive is small, and Y represents the colour, dominant phenotype is yellow, recessive is green.
