Answer:
B. the appearance of lichens and mosses in an area where a glacier has recently melted away
Explanation:
Ecological succession, which refers to the series of changes that occurs over time in an ecosystem, can be of two types namely: primary succession and secondary succession.
Primary succession is a succession that involves an area where no form of life has grown previously, hence, the area of land is barren e.g bare rock. Primary succession is first colonized by species called PIONEER SPECIES e.g. lichens, mosses etc.
According to this question, "the appearance of lichens and mosses (pioneer species) in an area where a glacier has recently melted away" is an example of PRIMARY SUCCESSION.
Answer:
Crossing two chickens heterozygous for the trait feather color, when brown feathers are dominant over red feathers, will produce offspring with brown and red feathers in a brown:red phenotypic ratio of 3:1.
Explanation:
Knowing that in chickens brown feathers are the expression of the dominant allele (B) and the recessive allele is red (b), crossing two heterozygous individuals (Bb) will result in offspring that are likely to have brown or red feathers.
The cross can be represented by a Punnett Square:
<u>Bb X Bb cross
</u>
alleles B b
B BB Bb
b Bb bb
Where the result is:
<u>Genotypes</u>:
<u>Phenotypes</u>:
- Brown feathers, 75%
- Red feathers, 25%.
In this case, the probability of having brown or red feathers is 3:1.
Here is the order:
Sun, grass, grasshopper, frog, snake, and hawk.
I hope this helps!

Answer:
Two patterns of complex inheritance are a color-blind male and flowers and when there is a color-blind male and a normal female.
Explanation: One of the Mendelian laws states that there is a dominant and a recessive gene. If these are together and form heterozygote only the dominant allele will be shown.
Answer:
Should be D. Breathable gases
Explanation:
The carrying capacity of an environment is the maximum population size of a biological species that can be sustained by that specific environment, and abiotic factors are non-living chemical and physical parts of the environment that affect living organisms and the functioning of ecosystems.
