Question: [QUESTION]Which type of relationship is formed when an epiphytic orchid grows on a tree branch in the canopy?
Solution: When an epiphytic orchid grows on a tree branch in the canopy, the orchid gets more sunlight and wind than it would if it grew on the forest floor. So, the orchid benefits from its relationship with the tree.
The tree is not damaged by the orchid, but the tree is not helped, either. So, the tree is not significantly affected by its relationship with the orchid.
Since the orchid benefits and the tree is not significantly affected, a commensal relationship is formed when an epiphytic orchid grows on a tree branch in the canopy. | TheMrguiller/ScienceQA |

Question: [QUESTION]What is the expected ratio of offspring with pale orange cheeks to offspring with bright orange cheeks? Choose the most likely ratio.
Solution: To determine how many boxes in the Punnett square represent offspring with pale orange cheeks or bright orange cheeks, consider whether each phenotype is the dominant or recessive allele's version of the cheek color trait. The question tells you that the r allele, which is for pale orange cheeks, is recessive to the R allele, which is for bright orange cheeks.
Pale orange cheeks is the recessive allele's version of the cheek color trait. A cockatiel with the recessive version of the cheek color trait must have only recessive alleles for the cheek color gene. So, offspring with pale orange cheeks must have the genotype rr.
There is 1 box in the Punnett square with the genotype rr. This box is highlighted below.
Bright orange cheeks is the dominant allele's version of the cheek color trait. A cockatiel with the dominant version of the cheek color trait must have at least one dominant allele for the cheek color gene. So, offspring with bright orange cheeks must have the genotype RR or Rr.
There are 3 boxes in the Punnett square with the genotype RR or Rr. These boxes are highlighted below.
So, the expected ratio of offspring with pale orange cheeks to offspring with bright orange cheeks is 1:3. This means that, on average, this cross will produce 1 offspring with pale orange cheeks for every 3 offspring with bright orange cheeks. | TheMrguiller/ScienceQA |

Question: [QUESTION]What is the expected ratio of offspring with a gray body to offspring with a golden body? Choose the most likely ratio.
Solution: To determine how many boxes in the Punnett square represent offspring with a gray body or a golden body, consider whether each phenotype is the dominant or recessive allele's version of the body color trait. The question tells you that the b allele, which is for a golden body, is recessive to the B allele, which is for a gray body.
A gray body is the dominant allele's version of the body color trait. A guppy with the dominant version of the body color trait must have at least one dominant allele for the body color gene. So, offspring with a gray body must have the genotype BB or Bb.
All 4 boxes in the Punnett square have the genotype BB or Bb.
A golden body is the recessive allele's version of the body color trait. A guppy with the recessive version of the body color trait must have only recessive alleles for the body color gene. So, offspring with a golden body must have the genotype bb.
There are 0 boxes in the Punnett square with the genotype bb.
So, the expected ratio of offspring with a gray body to offspring with a golden body is 4:0. This means that, based on the Punnett square, this cross will always produce offspring with a gray body. This cross is expected to never produce offspring with a golden body. | TheMrguiller/ScienceQA |
