Answers

Answer 1
Answer:

Answer: abrasion

Most wind erosion is caused by abrasion. Abrasion is the mechanical process of erosion which wears off solid rocks and sand particles from the surface due to high speed wind currents acting on the surface. It is an effective tool which cut and wear the surfaces against which they are driven.

20 heterozygous purple flowering pea plants are crossed. If purple is dominant over white, what are the expected phenotypic results?

Answers

Let's call the colour alleles C for dominant purple, and c for recessive white.

We have crossed Cc with Cc.  So if we put that in a Punnett square, we'd have a CC, two Cc and a cc.  That would give us a 3:1 ratio of purple to white, so you'd expect 15 purple and 5 white flowers. :)

Im guinea pigs, short hair is dominant and long hair is recessive. A short haired male and a short haired female produced mostly short haired offspring but a few were long haired. show how you can determine the genotypes of the parents

Answers

Answer/Explanation:

Let's say the allele for short hair is S and the allele for long hair is s. Since long hair is recessive, an individual would need to have two copies of that allele to show the genotype (h0m0zygous - ss). That means they must inherit one from each parent.

A guinea pig with short hair could be h0m0zygous (SS) or heterozygous (Ss)

Since a short haired male and a short haired female produced some long haired offspring, they must each have a copy of the long haired allele (s). Otherwise there is no way their offspring could inherit two copies of the s allele. The offspring must have got one s allele from each parent.

Therefore, the parents must both be heter0zygous (Ss)
