A protective layer that shields the surface from lethal ultraviolet light is found in the layer of the atmosphere known as the Stratosphere.
Therefore, the correct answer is option C for this specific statement.<span />
Answer:
Dominant
Explanation:
A hybrid trait is also known as heterozygous, which is the combination of the dominant and recessive alleles of a gene. On the other hand, a purebred is combination of the same two dominant alleles or the same two recessive alleles. For example, in the gene coding for height, allele for tallness (T) is dominant over the allele for shortness (t).
A purebred for this trait will either be "TT" or "tt" while a heterozygous or hybrid will be Tt. Hence, according to this question, crossing of a hybrid (Tt) and a dominant purebred (TT) will always result in offspring which are DOMINANT (see attached image).
<span>Having more lung capacity is advantageous because the lungs can expand more. More air in the lungs will fill all the alveoli (air sacs in the lungs) and allow more oxygen to enter the bloodstream via the capillaries that surround the air sacs. Excess waste (such as carbon dioxide) is also transferred from the blood to the air to be exhaled. As lungs fill, more gas exchange can occur.</span>
Excessive concentration of phosphorus<span> is </span>considered a pollutant because<span> crops often cannot absorb all of the fertilizer in the soils, causing excess fertilizer runoff and increasing phosphate levels in bodies of water.</span>
Plant types matched with their descriptions
- Hydrophytes - Aquatic plants
- Mesophytes - Plants with habitats that are neither too wet nor too dry
- Xerophytes - Plants with very dry habitats
Hydrophytes are aquatic plants that may be free floating, fully submerged or partly submerged (amphibious) in water. The vascular tissue of hydrophytes is very poorly developed. Examples of hydrophytes are Ottelia, Sagittaria and Utricularia.
Mesophytes are plants that live in habitats that have a moderate supply of water (neither too wet nor too dry. Mesophytes are usually large, fast growing, and have well developed roots and leaves. Examples of mesophytes are clover and maize (corn).
Xerophytes are plants that are able to thrive with very dry habitats where the available soil water is low. Examples of xerophytes are Acacia and Carthamus.
