Answer:
Alleles for feather colour exhibit incomplete dominance or co-dominance.
50% gray offspring + 50% black offspring
Explanation:
<em>It means that the alleles for feather colour in the hen exhibit incomplete dominance or co-dominance over one another.</em>
Assuming the allele for white colour is B, white colour will be b while the heterozygote Bb gives the gray phenotype.
Gray rooster + gray hen = 15 gray chicks, 6 black chicks and 8 white chicks.
15:6:8 is roughly 2:1:1 which is phenotypic ratio obtainable from crossing two heterozygous individuals as pointed out by Mendel.
Bb x Bb = 1BB, 2Bb, and 1bb
Crossing the gray rooster (Bb) with a black hen (bb):
Bb x bb = Bb, Bb, bb, and bb
= 2Bb (gray):2bb (black)
50% of the offspring will be gray while the remaining 50% will be black.
Answer:
All are true of the movement of Earth's atmosphere except :
d. Warm air is less dense than cool air so it tends to sink towards the Earth's Surface.
Explanation:
- When gases heat up, their volume increases and density decrease.
- A decrease in density causes a substance to become lighter.
- Thus, when air warms up due to heat from the sun its density decreases and it gets lighter.
- So, it will move up.
- The Cooler air in turn is denser and heavier so it will sink towards the Earth's surface.
- Hence, the statement d , which states that 'warm air is less dense than cool air so in tends to sink towards the Earth's Surface' is FALSE.
Intensity is defined to be the power per unit area carried by a wave. Power is the rate at which energy is transferred by the wave. In equation form, intensity I is
