Processes such as changes in orbital geometry or volcanic eruptions have clearly affected climate in the past, and these explain
docker41 [41]

Answer:

TRUE

Explanation:

There has been a constant increase in the earth's global surface temperature. This global rise in temperature is due to the increasing number of volcanic eruptions on earth's surface, changes in the orbital geometry as well as due to the introduction of the industrial revolution, that has been taking place on earth for the last 200 years.

The eruption of volcanoes leads to the release of a large number of pyroclastic materials and greenhouse gases and volcanic gases such as CO₂, SO₂, H₂O, H₂S and many other gases, which is harmful to the atmosphere. This leads to an increasing amount of temperature, resulting in the melting of the glaciers in the polar region.

Over this long time, plate motions have rapidly taken place, due to which the volcanoes were formed and erupted near the convergent and the divergent plate boundaries.

Thus, the above-given statement is true.

Someone please calculate the ratio of offspring please help pleaseeeeeeeeeeeeeeee
Over [174]

Answer:

2. 1 Pink : 1 white

3. 1 Red : 1 Pink

4. 1 Red : 2 Pink : 1 White

Explanation:

This question involves a single gene coding for flower colour in snapdragon plants. The alleles of the gene exhibits incomplete dominance i.e. the red allele (R) ia not completely dominant over the white allele (W), hence an intermediate pink phenotype (RW) is formed. Based on this, a red snapdragon will have genotype, CRCR while a white one will have genotype, CWCW. The intermediate pink phenotype will have a genotype, CRCW.

The image attached to this question shows four crosses between different traits.

In the second cross between a pink (CRCW) and white offspring (CWCW), 2pink and 2white offsprings will be possibly produced in the ratio 1:1.

In the third cross between a red (CRCR) and pink (CRCW) snapdragon, 2 red and 2 Pink offsprings will possibly be produced in a ratio 1:1.

In the fourth cross between a pink (CRCW) and pink (CRCW) snapdragon, red, pink and white offsprings will be produced in the ratio 1:2:1.

See attached image for the complete punnet square. Note that, there was a mistake in the Genotype of the last cross i.e. pink has genotype CRCW not CWCW.

What would happen if photosynisis stoped happing on earth
Neporo4naja [7]

We can confirm that the absence of photosynthesis on Earth would cause a mass extinction of most of the species on the planet.

<h3 /><h3>Why would the absence of photosynthesis be so harmful?</h3>

The process of photosynthesis is extremely important as it produces oxygen as a byproduct. The absence of this process on Earth would limit the available oxygen in the atmosphere which would at some point be entirely consumed. From then on, most species on the planet would die out as they require oxygen to live. Most plant species would also die off as they use photosynthesis to sustain life.

Therefore, we can confirm that the absence of photosynthesis on planet Earth could be considered an apocalyptic event as it would cause a near-complete extinction of life on the planet.

Apart from direct amphibian-to-amphibian contact, what is the most likely means by which the zoospores spread from one free-livi
iragen [17]
<span>The most likely means by which the zoospores spread from one free-living amphibian to another is via the flagella. The flagella is a tail-like structure on zoospores that helps them to move.</span>
