If both parents are heterozygous for a trait, the probability that an offspring will be recessive for that trait is?
Show explanation Expand Question
When both parents are heterozygous (Tt Ă— Tt), the Punnett square gives TT, Tt, Tt, and tt. Only 1 out of 4 (tt) is recessive, giving a probability of 1/4.

Question 44

Use the diagram above to answer this question. The movement of material in the xylem and phloem tissues of the plant are represented by the arrows labeled?
Use the diagram above to answer this question. The movement of material in the xylem and phloem tissues of the plant are represented by the arrows labeled?
Show explanation Expand Question

xylem, plant vascular tissue that conveys water and dissolved minerals from the roots to the rest of the plant and also provides physical support.

Phloem is a living tissue in vascular plants which conducts the soluble organic compounds synthesized during photosynthesis downwards from the leaves.

Use the diagram above to answer this question.With respect to their decreasing dependence on aquatic conditions for reproduction, which of the following is the correct arrangement of the animals represented?
Show explanation Expand Question

- Like frogs, most toads lay their fertilized eggs in water, where they hatch into tadpoles before developing into adult toads. These amphibians need a safe, undisturbed body of water to lay their eggs in. However, a few species breed on land.

- the mother alligator typically lays about 35 eggs in a nest made of mud, sticks and other plant matter. 

- Rabbits sometimes dig a burrow in which to give birth
