1. Which of the following statements about the nitrogen cycle is false? A. Ammonification converts organic nitrogenous matter from living organisms into ammonium (NH4+)
B. Denitrification by bacteria converts nitrates (NO3-) to nitrogen gas (N2).
C. Nitrification by bacteria converts nitrates (NO3-) to nitrites (NO2-).
D. Nitrogen-fixing bacteria convert nitrogen gas (N2) into organic compounds.

The correct answer is c

The answer would be c, white eyes are homozygous recessive. in the early 1900s, morgan conducted several experiments with vinegar  flies (drosophila). one  sample revealed an anomaly: a  white-eyed, single male fly. he attempted to breed this fly with the typical red-eyed females. the offspring were all red-eyed. using flies from this new generation (brother-sister pairs)  produced some red-eyed and a few white-eyed flies. the white-eyed were all male. in later experiments, he was able to produce white-eyed females. this proved that white eyes are not lethal to either sex (ruling out a and b). since the percentage of white eyes to red eyes is so low, white eyes are not a dominant trait. it would be a recessive trait.
