1. The life cycle of silk moth starts when a female silk moth lays eggs. The caterpillar or larvae are hatched from the eggs of the silk moth. The silkworms feed on mulberry leaves and give rise to pupa. In the pupa stage, a weave is netted around by the silkworm to hold itself. After that it swings its head, spinning a fibre made of a protein and becomes a silk fibre. Several caterpillars form a protective layer around pupa and this covering is known as the cocoon. The silk thread (yarn) is obtained from the silk moth’s cocoon. 2.Fibre (especially wool) souring involves these of hot water and detergents to remove soil, vegetable impurities, grease and other contaminants from fibers . Scouring with alkali breaks down natural oils and surfactants and suspends impurities in the bath.

In a hypothetical breed of dogs, coat color is controlled by two genes. there are six different coat colors in this breed: black, brown, cream, gray, silver, and tan. consider the following crosses. cross 1: black females from a lineage of all black dogs are crossed with brown males from a lineage of all brown dogs. f1 males and females are all black. when f1 are intercrossed, f2 males and females are black or brown. cross 2: black females from a lineage of all black dogs are crossed with tan males from a lineage where all males are tan and all females are cream. f1 males are black, f1 females are gray. when f1 are intercrossed, f2 males and females are black, brown, gray, or tan. cross 3: silver females from a lineage where all females are silver and all males are gray are crossed with brown males from a lineage of all brown dogs. f1 males and females are all gray. when f1 are intercrossed, f2 males are black, brown, gray, or tan, f2 females are cream, gray, silver, or tan. select the correct statements regarding the mode of inheritance of the coat color genes. a) both genes are x-linked. b) both genes are autosomal. c) one of the genes modifies the expression of the other gene. d) each gene has an additive effect on the intensity of coat color. e) each gene independently specifies three colors. f) one of the genes is autosomal, and the other is x-linked.

In 2015, about ten percent of total u.s. energy consumption was from renewable energy sources. renewable energy plays an important role in reducing greenhouse gas emissions. when renewable energy sources are used, the demand for fossil fuels is reduced. sanjay and his family want to cut back on their use of non-renewable resources at home. they are thinking of an alternate way to heat their home without adding more greenhouse gases or pollutants to the environment. which renewable resource would not fit into their plan? a) solar power b) burning wood c) constructing a wind turbine eliminate d) generating hydroelectric power
