Answer:

D. 1 BB : 2 Bb : 1 bb

Explanation:

This question involves a single gene coding for fur color in guinea pig. Black fur (B) is dominant over white fur (b). This means that, as stated in the question, if a black fur parent (BB) is crossed with a white fur parent (bb), a 100% heterozygous offspring (Bb) with black fur will result.

If two heterozygous guinea pigs are crossed i.e. Bb × Bb, the following gametes will be produced by each heterozygous parent:

Bb = B and b

Using these gametes in a punnet square (see attached image), offsprings with the following genotypic ratio will be produced:

1 BB : 2 Bb : 1 bb

BB and Bb = black fur guinea pigs

bb = white fur guinea pigs

Which of the Caulerpa taxifolia’s traits make it so dangerous to local ecosystem
k0ka [10]

<u>Answer:</u>

<em>Caurepa taxifolia is an invasive species of algae and is listed in the IUCN list of 100 invasive species. </em>

<u>Explanation:</u>

In is an algae usually found in the pacific ocean. It was earlier used in aquariums as  an <em>ornamental species of algae</em>. The dangerously invasive nature overshadows its attractive appearance.

It is inedible and  increases in numbers at a surprisingly <em>accelerated rate.</em>  The growth of other plants is difficult in areas dominated by the Caurepa taxifolia. The introduction of this <em>algae was in the Meditteranian sea. </em>

How does the frogs vestigial thumb help survival?
Leviafan [203]

Frogs have their way of avoiding the predators like camouflage, squirting the poisonous liquid out of their system and through their vestigial thumbs. This organ helps them by avoiding predation by stealth which makes them quiet and silent in moving so that predators won't notice them readily.

Robert Koch is best known for which of the following contributions?
algol13

Robert Koch is best known for establishing a link between bacteria and disease.

Robert Koch was a German doctor that made an important contribution to the field of microbiology and public health. During his experiments he identified the particular microorganisms that cause diseases such as tuberculosis, cholera, and anthrax. Koch’s research resulted to the development of Koch's postulates, which are four general principles that links specific microorganisms (such as bacteria) to specific diseases and is being used today in medical microbiology as a standard.

An owl has good night vision because its eyes can detect a light intensity as small as 5.0 × 10-13 W/m2. What is the minimum num
Lady bird [3.3K]

Answer:

Thus, the minimum number of photons per second is 77.34

Explanation:

Light intensity, I_{min} =  5\times 10^{-13} W/m^{2}

Pupil has a diameter, d = 8.5 mm

                                      = 8.5 x 10^{-3} m

Radius of the eye, r = 4.25 x 10^{-3} m

∴ Area of the eye, A = \pi .r^{2}

                                 = 3.14\times \left ( 4.25\times 10^{-3} \right )^{2}

                                = 5.6\times 10^{-5} m^{2}

Let P_{min} be the minimum number of photons.

Therefore, P_{min} = I_{min} x A

                                              = 5\times 10^{-13} x 5.6\times 10^{-5}

                                             = 2.8\times 10^{-17} W

Thus the minimum number of photons is given by

N_{min}=P_{min}/E

where E = hc/\lambda

             = \left (6.63\times 10^{-34}\times 3\times 10^{8}  \right )/548\times 10^{-9}

            = 3.62\times 10^{-19} J

Therefore, N_{min} = \frac{2.8\times 10^{-17}}{3.62\times 10^{-19}}

                                              = 77.34 photons per second

Thus, the minimum number of photons per second is 77.34

Dovator [93]

Answer:

The answer is Make reclamation required after mining operations have ended

Explanation:

If a company has removed the minerals out of the mining place, mined areas must go through reclamation, which returns land to a usable state after mining operations have ceased.
