Potatoes do not swell when it rains. When it rains the potatoes absorbs water mostly through its roots.

Potatoes are considered as a starchy, tuberous root crop. Since it is a root crop, therefore, it is part of the root of the plant and is grown underground. The answer would be NO. Potatoes that are in the ground do not swell when it rains. Instead, these potatoes also absorb the rain water just like any other roots of plants do.

In a two-point test cross, 36 of the offspring were recombinant types. The remaining 64 offspring were parental types. How many
Maksim231197 [3]

Answer:

36

Explanation:

A two-point test-cross is a cross between an individual with a double heterozygote genotype and a homo-zygous recessive individual in order to determine the recombination frequency between two linked genes. In genetics, one map unit (m.u.) can be defined as the measure of the distance (i.e., genetic distance instead of physical distance) between genes for which one (1) product of meiosis in one hundred (100) is recombinant. In this case, 36 of the offspring have the recombinant phenotype, while the remaining 64 offspring are not recombinant, and therefore both genes are separated by 36 mu (64 + 36 = 100 >> 36 mu).

Describe the impact of a waterborne pollutant on an aquatic community. write a 100-word report on how that pollutant affected aq
Rufina [12.5K]
A waterborne pollutant can have different effects on aquatic life depending on the nature of the pollutant. A pollutant at lower levels can have minimal or no effect on aquatic life. However, when the concentrations of the pollutant are high, the population of aquatic organisms can be greatly reduced. There are also times when pollutants at lower concentrations cause significant damage. An organism can consume another organism that has absorbed small amounts of the pollutant. As the consumer takes in more of the contaminated organism, the pollutant is magnified in the body of the consumer resulting in lethal concentrations. This is called biomagnification.

How has the development of a pine and then a hardwood forest affected populations of shrubs?
kirill115 [55]

Answer:

Yes, shrubs are affected.

Explanation:

The development of a pine and then a hardwood forest affected populations of shrubs because pine and hardwood trees are higher in length than shrubs so the shrubs did not gain sunlight and also all the nutrients present in the soil is extracted by the pine and hardwood trees. The shrubs present below the pine and hardwood trees slowly removes from that environment due to unavailability of sunlight and nutrients.
