Answer: Percolation
Explanation: It is the ability of water to sip in into the ground. Percolation is the process wherein the ground absorbs water up to the amount it can hold. When the soil or ground is saturated with water it loses its ability to absorb water and causes it to run off. Unsaturated ground can absorb more water through percolation process.
Answer:
G and K
Explanation:
Crossing-over is a genetic phenomenon that occurs in meiosis, specifically, Prophase I. It is when chromosomal segment (genes) are exchanged between non-sister chromatids of homologous chromosomes. Crossing-over occurs only to genes that are UNLINKED i.e. genes located on different chromosomes or far apart on the same chromosome.
This unlinked genes are said to have the highest RECOMBINATION FREQUENCY. Crossing-over allows genes on the same chromosome but far apart from each other, assort independently, which allows alleles to be recombined on the same chromosome. This phenomenon does not occur to genes that are close on the same chromosome as they will be inherited together as a unit.
In this case, G and K are the farthest apart, hence, they will have the highest RECOMBINATION FREQUENCY i.e. the likelihood for homologous crossing-over to take place during meiosis.
Heterotrophs help in maintaining a balance in the ecosystem by providing organic compounds for autotrophs. Certain heterotrophs such as fungi help in reducing decomposed plant and animal material. This recycling activity is important in reducing waste in the environment.
