4. Nitrogen gas is more abundant in our atmosphere than oxygen! However, nitrogen needs to be
converted into different forms to be used by many
organisms. Bacteria are highly involved in this!
Describe the role of (A) bacteria fixing nitrogen as
they live symbiotically with some plant species, (B)
nitrifying bacteria, and (C) denitrifying bacteria in
the nitrogen cycle.

Which properties describe all matter?

Coat color in cats is determined by genes at several different loci. at one locus on the x chromosome, one allele (x ) encodes black fur and another allele (xo) encodes orange fur. females can be black (x x ), orange (xoxo), or a mixture of orange and black called tortoiseshell (x xo). males are either black (x y) or orange (xoy). bill has a female tortoiseshell cat named patches. one night, patches escapes from bill\'s house, spends the night out, and mates with a stray male. patches later gives birth to the following kittens: one orange male, one black male, two tortoiseshell females, and one orange female. what are the genotypes of patches, the stray male, and the kittens?

If a baby girl guinea pig looks almost identical to its mother, does this then mean that it inherited more alleles from its mother? explain. (hint: think about the vocabulary words dominant and recessive.)
