The average thorax length in a Drosophila population is 1.01 mm. You want to practice selective breeding to make larger Drosophila. To do so, you choose 10 parents (5 males and 5 females) of the following sizes: 0.97, 0.99, 1.05, 1.06, 1.03, 1.21, 1.22, 1.17, 1.19, 1.20. You mate them and then determine the thorax lengths of 30 offspring (half male and half female): 0.99, 1.15, 1.20, 1.33, 1.07, 1.11, 1.21, 0.94, 1.07, 1.11, 1.20, 1.01, 1.02, 1.05, 1.21, 1.22, 1.03, 0.99, 1.20, 1.10, 0.91, 0.94, 1.13, 1.14, 1.20, 0.89, 1.10, 1.04, 1.01, 1.26. Calculate the realized heritability of thorax length in this group of flies.

•there must be variation for the particular trait within a population.

•the variation must be inheritable (that is, it must be capable of being passed on from the parents to their offspring).

•individuals with one version of the trait must produce more offspring than those with a different version of the trait.good

explanation:

hydrogen is a compound or a single element and a element is a pure substence that cannot be separated into simpler subtances

clorine is a compound its a chemical substance that forms when two or more different elements combine

so both hydrogen and clorine are compounds

the growth of the plants is affected by the heat of the light. what is the student doing?

answer; autosomal;
