Astudent conducted an experiment to test whether talking to plants would them to grow faster. the student talked to one group of plants and hand watered them. the student did not talk to the other group of plants and used sprinklers. after three weeks, the plants that were spoken to showed much more growth than the plants that were not. based on the results of this experiment, which is the best conclusion? talking to plants may or may not plants grow faster because three weeks is not enough time to tell. talking to plants may or may not plants grow faster because the amount of water given was likely different for each group. talking to plants does not plants grow faster because the experiment did not involve enough groups of plants to determine this. talking to plants does plants grow faster because those plants showed more growth. unmark this question

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.
