A scientist doing a dihybrid cross breeds fruit flies and makes a Punnett square to predict the offspring phenotypes. The phenotypes occur in a very different proportion than the Punnett square predicted. Why could this be? A. the genes are linked
B. The flies all mutated during the cross
C. The fruit flies have aneuploidy
D. She made a mistake in her Punnett square

answer; i believe the answer is hydraulic action;

1. a tropical dry forest carries out more rapid nutrient cycling

as the gila monster consumes the eggs or young of the desert cottontail and gambel's quail, thus its main food supply is only accessible for a restricted time duration every year. however, for this, the gila monsters exhibit three adaptations, which elevate their survival rate in the desert condition.  

first, is that they possess huge bodies, and can consume greater concentrations of food during a small period. secondly, they require to feed infrequently as they can accumulate fat in their tails. ultimately, their rate of metabolism is very low, so that they can burn their reservoirs of fat gradually.
