That's because the anoles are an extraordinary example of convergent evolution—where different living things independently acquire the same adaptations to the same challenges. For example, each island has an anole that lives among twigs.
Answer:
A) incomplete dominance.
Explanation:
It is a clear case of incomplete dominance. This kind of inheritance shows deviation from Mendel's popular law of genetics which is known as "Law of Dominance". This law states that when two pure breeding parents i.e. homozygous dominant and homozygous recessive are mated then all their off-springs are genotypically heterozygous but phenotypically they all show dominant trait. But in incomplete dominance, <u>the dominant allele is unable to mask the expression of recessive allele completely</u> which leads to a phenotype which is a blend of both the traits.
In the example, orange beak is unable to mask the expression of ivory beak completely as a result of which all the off-springs have an intermediate trait which is pale, ivory-orange beak.

Answer:
<u>Fertilizer usage is linked to the agricultural practice</u> with an aim to <u>enhance the crop yield</u>. Inadequae use of fertilizers however causes soil degradation because <u>these practices overlook the spatial differences in soil fertility status </u>in agricultrual systems. Specifically,<u> not all soils require fertilizer application at the same levels</u>. A recommended approach is that, initially, there should be a proper study of limited nutrients in the soil and thereon only those nutrients should be given at controlled concentrations, which are limited. A major reason is that <u>high concentration of specific nutrients would affect the bioavailability of other nutrients</u> in the long run and could also lead to soil degradation (by affecting soil health status). <u>The microbial population in the soil could also change</u> that are typical for essential biogeochemical cycles. This is a very critical aspect in future future agriculture and to preserve the environment. <u>Deforestation</u> is a condition when the plants are cut excessively for agricultural purposes. <u>If soil degradation continues as discussed above, it would put a reduce the overall proportion of agricultrual land and cutting of naturally grown forests would be required. This would turn the green zones into agricultural zones (in future)</u>. This is a pressure on ecosystem and the consequences can be really harsh.
