Explain how the alleles were passed from parents to offspring

Q1.8. continuing your studies, you perform a transplant experiment. you chisel up multiple rocks from the upper intertidal zone, each holding 10 individuals of species a, and move them to the lower intertidal zone among individuals of species c. you count the number of individuals of all species on the rocks every day for 30 days. based on your findings, what can you conclude? (remember that all 3 species settle in this zone at equal rates.)

Sea levels are rising due to climate change while increasing numbers of people are moving into coastal areas. to accommodate more people, there has been increased construction of beachfront resorts and condominiums. how is this impacting sea turtle numbers and biodiversity and why? a. the increased human population in coastal areas has meant that more food is available to the turtles (e.g., dropped food, waste from restaurants), which has led to an increase in the numbers and diversity of sea turtles. b. there has been very little change in the numbers and biodiversity of sea turtles because the planet is so vast that they can simply relocate to less crowded beaches. c. this has resulted in a decrease in numbers and diversity of sea turtles because it is restricting available nesting sites, and hence reproduction. d. this has resulted in an increase in numbers and diversity of sea turtles because people are around to protect them from natural predators.

In which situations is the principle of cross-cutting relationship useful in determining relative age?
