Question: [QUESTION]Which of the following organisms is the tertiary consumer in this food web? Solution: Tertiary consumers eat secondary consumers. So, in a food web, tertiary consumers have arrows pointing to them from secondary consumers. Secondary consumers have arrows pointing to them from primary consumers. And primary consumers have arrows pointing to them from producers. The gray fox has an arrow pointing to it from the pine vole. The pine vole is a secondary consumer, so the gray fox is a tertiary consumer. The black bear has arrows pointing to it from the persimmon tree, the swallowtail caterpillar, and the beaver. None of these organisms is a secondary consumer, so the black bear is not a tertiary consumer. The beaver has an arrow pointing to it from the silver maple. The silver maple is not a secondary consumer, so the beaver is not a tertiary consumer. The persimmon tree does not have any arrows pointing to it. So, the persimmon tree is not a tertiary consumer. The black racer has an arrow pointing to it from the pine vole. The pine vole is a secondary consumer, so the black racer is a tertiary consumer.

Question: [QUESTION]Based on this information, what is this plant's phenotype for the flower color trait? Solution: The scarlet rosemallow plant's genotype for the flower color gene is FF. The scarlet rosemallow plant's genotype of FF has only F allelles. The F allele is for red flowers. So, the scarlet rosemallow plant's phenotype for the flower color trait must be red flowers. To check this answer, consider whether the scarlet rosemallow plant's alleles are dominant or recessive. The allele for white flowers (f) is recessive to the allele for red flowers (F). This means F is a dominant allele, and f is a recessive allele. The scarlet rosemallow plant's genotype of FF has two dominant alleles. An organism with at least one dominant allele for a gene will have the dominant allele's version of the trait. So, the scarlet rosemallow plant's phenotype for the flower color trait must be red flowers.
