Answer:

option B: Polygenic inheritance

Explanation:

Polygenic inheritance in genetics and plant breeding can be defined as a type of inheritance whereby  one or a single trait or  characteristics(color)  is controlled by multiple genes (two or more genes). it is a continuous variation that depicts a normal distribution curve

the phenotype of a plant or an animal increases if when there is an increase in the number of genes controlling a particular trait or characteristics. polygenic inheritance are non-Mendelian form of inheritance in  nature and a  single trait expressed is as a result of the interaction of many or multiple genes that are quantitative genes in nature. examples are weight, skin color, height, e.t.c

The validity of the hypothesis cannot be confirmed or refuted from only one experiment. By using a series of experiments, the human error or measurement error is reduced to a minimum. Furthermore, more than one factor can be used to determine the validity of the hypothesis.  

I will respond to this student that the experiment needs to be repeated multiple times before a conclusion can be drawn! Also, the data will refute or confirm the validity of the hypothesis and not the researcher's own opinion/rational.

Energy enters most ecosystems as sunlight. Within an ecosystem, energy is transformed, used, and exits the ecosystem as heat. Dr
Cloud [144]

Answer: The correct terms for completing the concept of energy and trophic levels are as follows-

a) Solar energy

b) Trophic levels

c) Heat

d) Tertiary consumers

e) Secondary consumers

f) Primary consumers

g) Primary producers

h) Decomposers.

Energy flow in an ecosystem is driven by solar energy that is captured and converted into chemical energy by primary producers ( like green plants and algae). The energy moves through different trophic levels according to the 10% law of energy transfer and the rest energy is released as heat.

Primary producers are eaten by primary consumers, which are eaten by secondary consumers that are eaten by tertiary consumers. The organic matter that becomes dead is ultimately decomposed with the help of decomposers.
