<span>My pea plant has an unknown genotype for flowers, whether it has two dominant traits for white flowers (WW) or one dominant and one recessive (Ww) leading to white flowers; therefore I am doing a testcross in order to determine the genotype of my pea plant. The best plant to do this with is one that has a phenotype of purple flowers (ww) - that is, it is homozygous for the recessive trait.
If I use a homozygous recessive plant, I know exactly what its genotype is. I don't have to worry about whether it's got one or two dominant alleles; I know that at least half of my alleles are going to be the recessive w.
This makes identifying the offspring's genotype very simple. If I find that the offspring have at least some purple flowers among them, I know that my original plant had to be Ww; that is it had to have one dominant and one recessive allele for the flower color gene. If, however, all of the offspring are white flowers, I know that my original pea plant had both dominant alleles (WW).</span>
Question:What is one difference between the theory of continental drift and the one theory of plate tectonics
Answer/Explanation: Continental drift is the hypothesis that states that the continents once formed a single landmass(Pangaea) broke up and drifted to their present locations.Sea-floor spreading the process by which new oceanic lithosphere(sea floor) forms as magma rises to Earth's surface and solidifies at a mid-ocean ridge.
<em>Answer:</em>
<em>modulate abiotic forces that, in turn, affect resource use by other organisms. both negative and positive effects on species richness and abundances at small scales, but things that a tree does than directly use the tree for ... changes in biotic or abiotic materials. in comparison to some of the other examples we discuss.</em>

Answer:
d. budding
Explanation:
Budding is a type of asexual reproduction, as are binary division, multiple division, vegetative propagation, and fragmentation. This type of reproduction is observed in some species of animals and plants.
In budding, as the name suggests, sprouts appear on the surface of the organism. These shoots will give rise to a new individual, which may grow on the organism that originated it, forming the colonies, or be released into the environment.
This type of reproduction is common in several plant species, occurring more frequently in angiosperms, and also in some animal species, especially in the cnidarian and porifer group.
