Use the following information to answer the question. A plantlike organism on the hypothetical planet Pandora has three genetic traits: leaf color, controlled by gene L; a stem texture, controlled by gene S; and root length controlled by gene R. The three genes are linked and recombine. A geneticist performed a testcross with a strain of the organism that is heterozygous for the three traits. She recorded progeny with the following phenotypic distribution: Phenotypes Leaves Stems Roots Number 1 l S R 14 2 l S r 0 3 l s R 32 4 l s r 440 5 L s R 0 6 L s r 16 7 L S r 28 8 L S R 470 Total 1,000 What is the approximate distance between genes L and S

Which of the following occurs after a natural or unnatural disturbance in an ecosystem

Sea levels are rising due to climate change while increasing numbers of people are moving into coastal areas. to accommodate more people, there has been increased construction of beachfront resorts and condominiums. how is this impacting sea turtle numbers and biodiversity and why? a. the increased human population in coastal areas has meant that more food is available to the turtles (e.g., dropped food, waste from restaurants), which has led to an increase in the numbers and diversity of sea turtles. b. there has been very little change in the numbers and biodiversity of sea turtles because the planet is so vast that they can simply relocate to less crowded beaches. c. this has resulted in a decrease in numbers and diversity of sea turtles because it is restricting available nesting sites, and hence reproduction. d. this has resulted in an increase in numbers and diversity of sea turtles because people are around to protect them from natural predators.

Plz ! for many generations farmers in north america have been choosing to cross corn plants with large ears of corn each year this results in the new generation of plants also growing large ears of corn. what is the technique called? a. selective breeding. b. natural selection. c. mitosis. d. asexual budding.
