The bones of your arms are called humerus, while your forearms are composed of two bones, the radius and ulna. The bones of your fingers are called metacarpals and each one of those small bones are called phalanges.
The bones of your shoulders are composed of the clavicle, the bony part seen just right under the neck. Part of the shoulder area is the scapula, which is located at the back part of the body attached to the upper part of the ribs. They are the triangle-shaped bones you feel when you cross your arms at the back.
The bones of your thighs are called femur, they are the largest bones in your body. While the bones of your legs are called tibia and fibula. The bones of your toes are called tarsals and each are composed of smaller bones called metatarsals. Your heels also have bones and they are called calcaneus.
The bones of your pelvis are called Coxal bones as a whole but they are composed of the illium (biggest part of your hips); the pubic bone, located along the reproductive organ; the sacrum and coccyx all located at the base of the spine.
Answer:
a) The genes present on separate chromosomes exhibit indepedent assortment.
b) The genotype of tall and purple flower parent= TTPp
The genotype of short and purple flower parent: ttPp
Explanation:
a) In a dihybrid cross, if the genes are present on the same chromosome, they will not exhibit independent assortment. The genes present on the same chromosome are called linked genes. Linked genes are inherited together. The absence of independent assortment of a linked gene gives more of parental types in F2 progeny. Therefore, if genes are not present on a separate chromosome, Mendel’s ratios deviate.
b) Alleles for tallness and purple flower are dominant. In the progeny, all the plants are tall. This means that the dominant tall plant is homozygous. With respect to flower color, the trait exhibits segregation of dominant and recessive alleles and both purple and white flower progeny are obtained. This makes both the plants heterozygous for the flower color gene.
The genotype of tall and purple flower parent= TTPp
The genotype of short and purple flower parent: ttPp
The answer is b Area A was completely underwater in the past.<span> None of the other conclusions can be drawn; you need more information. You DO know that area A was once completely underwater though.\</span>
The correct option is C.
Living organisms that live in the littoral zones in the ocean are used to frequent changes in temperature and in the salinity of the ocean water. For an organism to survive in this environment, it needs to have adaptive features that will increase its survival. The littoral zone is divided into three zones, which are high, middle and lower littoral zones. Organisms living in high littoral zone have adaptive features that make them more adapted to desiccation due to the long hours of sunlight to which they are exposed. The organisms are usually exposed directly to the air or they can be enclosed in burrows.
