There are several reasons that contribute to the high level of biodiversity found in the wetlands. Firstly it provides numerous animals and insects to find their food and breed easily. Also this wetland helps the animals to camouflage against their enemies. The wetlands provide home for abundance of marine animals. It is actually a place that maintains a natural balance.<span />
Answer:
B. Water can act as a solvent in many different solutions.
Explanation:
Water is called the "universal solvent" because it dissolves more substances than any other liquid.

The answer is D, because carbon footprint is defined by the amount of carbon dioxide released into the air by human activities.
Answer: 1/8 (approximately 12.5%)
Explanation:
The key to figuring out this question is contained in the statement “The alleles at these 2 gene loci assort independently”. This means that the analysis of each locus can be undertaken in isolation first.
1) Let S = straight hair; C = curly hair. Since both alleles are codominant, it can be assumed that the straight-haired man has ‘SS’ genotype and the wavy-haired woman is heterozygous (“SC”). The Punnett chart is as follows:
S C
S SS SC
S SS SC
Thus, there is a 1/2 (50%) chance that any one of their offspring will have wavy hair.
2) We know that the man and the woman have blood types A and B respectively, but we also know that they have already had one child with type 0 blood. Since the only possible genotype for type 0 blood is “00”, and each “0” allele must have been inherited from one of the parents, we can assume that the parents have ”A0” and “B0” genotypes. See chart:
B 0
A AB A0
0 B0 00
There is a 1/4 (25%) chance that any one of their offspring will have type AB blood.
3) Finally: Since the alleles are segregated independently, we may apply the rule of multiplication for probabilities of independent events, as follows:
Probability of wavy hair x probability of type AB blood = 1/2 x 1/4 = 1/8
