Biology

Julli [10]2 years ago
7 0

The farmer can use variation in the height of the corn plants to cross them and produce taller corn plants. The farmer's work will be most effective if height is determined by codominance.

<h3>Codominance</h3>

Codominance refers to the fact that different alleles of a given gene locus can affect a phenotype.

The farmer's work will be most effective if height is determined by codominance because he/she will need to select hybrid plants in a generation to breed them.

The farmer can observe the proportion of taller offspring that are affected by the disease in order to analyze if heigh and disease resistance genes are linked.

If these genes are linked, then it is required to cross plants and then select recombinant offspring with desired features (in this case, taller and disease resistance plants).

Which organ is responsible for dehydration and compaction of indigestible materials?
My name is Ann [436]

Answer:

Large intestine

Explanation:

After the completion of digestion process in the small intestine, the indigestible residual materials are passed to the large intestine.

The large intestine serves three primary functions -

  1. Absorption of water and electrolytes
  2. Production and absorption of vitamins
  3. Formation and propelling of feces accomplishing their removal through the rectum.

When water gets absorbed, the indigestible materials get dehydrated and during feces formation they are compacted and then eliminated through the rectum.

Describe and explain how the rate of photosynthesis is affected by light intensity​
Tema [17]
Increasing the light intensity increases the rate of photosynthesis, until some other factor - a limiting factor - becomes in short supply. At very high light intensities, photosynthesis is slowed and then inhibited, but these light intensities do not occur in nature.
