PLEASE HELP FAST!! Why is this considered a theory instead of a hypothesis
or a law?
se
O It is a statement of fact about how nature works
instead of an explanation.
o It provides an explanation for many observations and
accepted hypotheses.
o It describes how to test a possible explanation of one
specific relationship.
It has not changed over time even though new
technology has been developed.

Alichen is an organism that structurally appears to be a single organism. but a lichen is actually two different organisms—a fungus and green algae—living together as one organism. the fungal partner derives its nutrition from the photosynthesizing algae. how does a lichen differ in its photosynthetic activity from elysia chlorotica, the sea slug that’s considered to be a photosynthesizing animal? a. in lichens, the fungi photosynthesize on their own, while elysia chlorotica forms a relationship with a photosynthesizing plant. b. in lichens, the relationship with the algae lasts throughout the life cycle, but in elysia chlorotica, the relationship occurs only during the immature juvenile stage of the slug’s life cycle. c. lichens can photosynthesize only because of the living algal partner, while elysia chlorotica incorporates chloroplasts from algae into its cells. d. in lichens, the association between the fungi and algae is permanent, while elysia chlorotica associates with a photosynthesizing organism only when it requires food.

In sweet pea, gene c is responsible for color production and gene p is responsible for the purple color pigment. both of them are located on two different loci on different chromosomes. the flowers will be purple only when the plant has the genotypes as c_p_. no color will be produced with genotypes: ccpp, ccpp, ccpp, ccpp. thus, gene c controls the expression of gene p. what pattern of inheritance is exhibited here? a. pleiotropy b. epistasis c. multiple alleles

Use the above pedigree for questions 1,2, and 3 1. what kind of genetic disorder is represented in the pedigree? a. recessive b. dominate refer to the pedigree in question 1. 2. is the mutated gene in this disorder located on a sex chromosome (x or y) or an autosome? a. sex chromosome b. autosome refer to the pedigree in question 1. 3. which generation has individuals that you are certain are heterozygous for the mutated gene? a. generation 1 b. generation 2 c. generation 3
