What are some ways in which our political and economic system has inhibited the response to scientific information about the damage these phenomena have caused? Some examples you can look up are the Love Canal, Rachel Carson’s book Silent Spring, the burning of the Cuyahoga River, and the Exxon Valdez oil spill (but feel free to find your own as well). Remember also the climate change video from Dr. Oreskes available on the course pages. Explain at least 3 ways. (This is an environmental science question)

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.
