Using the same experimental data, what is the percent increase in height of plants in the second generation? Round the mean height of each generation to the nearest tenth before you calculate the percent increase in height. Enter your answer to the nearest tenth (0.1). Write answer as a percentage.

This phenomenon, known as heterosis, led to tremendous increases in corn production in the United States. In 1931, 0.1 percent of the corn planted was hybrid corn, resulting in an average yield of 24.5 bushels per acre. In 1992, almost all corn planted in the United States was hybrid corn, resulting in an average yield of 135 bushels per acre. Study the figure at the bottom of the page, which shows the current method for producing hybrid corn. Explain the…

The following graph depicts the relationship between the mean flower depth of Zaluzianskya microsiphon plants and the proboscis length of its long-tonged fly Disa nivea pollinator in a specific region. • Zaluzianskya microsiphon 60- O Disa nivea E 50- 물 40- 30- 20- 10- 10 20 30 40 50 Mean fly proboscis length (mm) Based on this correlation, do you think these two species are coevolving? Why or why not? And based on the geographic mosaic theory, would you consider the region were the plants and flies live a cold or a hot spot? Explain your answer. Mean flower depth (mm)

According to the graphical theory of life history evolution, describe the shape of the trade-off function for a semelparious plant. In your answer, describe what the relationship means and why it supports semelparity.

Your neighbor claims that adding fertilizer to your tomatoes will increase yields. How would you test this claim.

Specifically, address the difference between the control groups of Brassica rapa plants under natural sunlight versus experimental groups of Brassica rapa plants under artificial light which uses incandescent light bulbs, and how to exactly apply an independent variable which is the duration of light exposure of the Brassica rapa to the experimental group members. Quantify the independent variable. This needs at least a general description of the process that is written in a narrative format and should be 2-3 paragraphs long.
