The approximate water temperature at a depth of 125 meters would be closest to: (1) 15°C (2) 8°C (3) 13°C (4) 3°C

Answer:

(2) 8 ºC

Explanation:

The range of the temperatures from the uppermost layers of the ocean - around 100 to 150 m -, which in this case is 125 m, is not always constant as they fluctuate due to the atmospheric heating and cooling, and also due to seasonal variations.

However, if we base our answer on the table below, we would determinate that the approximate water temperature at a depth of 125 meters is 8 ºC (2). This is because, if we observe, the temperature at 100 m is 12 ºC, while at 150 m is 5 ºC. Therefore, the temperature at 125 m should be higher than 5 ºC and lower than 12 ºC, that is 8 ºC.

a cat has the folded ear trait (ee), which is recessive. It is crossed with one that is a carrier for the trait (Ee). How many k
DedPeter [7]

Answer:

Explanation:

You have to assume that this is complete dominance and one of these traits is dominant. To get the recessive characteristic, the alleles (versions of the gene) both have to be recessive (both lower case). But to have the dominant phenotype, either both alleles could be dominant (upper case) or you could have one of each (heterozygous, where you have one upper case and one lower case). 

So there are two possibilities for genotype of the cat with the dominant characteristic. Since you don't know (yet) which it is, just use the letters "E" and "e" and set up the two possible Punnett squares: 

......|...e...|...e...| 

..E..|..Ee..|..Ee..| 

..E..|..Ee..|..Ee..| 

......|...e...|...e...| 

..E..|..Ee..|..Ee..| 

..e...|..ee..|..ee..| 

In the first Punnett square, all the offspring have the same genotype, so they would also have the same phenotype. In the second square, you have offspring with two genotypes, one of which would produce the dominant phenotype (Ee) and one of which would produce the recessive phenotype (ee). Since your problem states that all the offspring have the same phenotype, the correct Punnett square is the first one where all the kittens are heterozygous (Ee). Since the dominant allele (E) masks the recessive allele (e), then curly ears has to be the dominant trait, since that's the phenotype of all the kittens.
