Below is an image of a family tree (first generation) showing a group of mice. A dark gray mouse and a white mouse had four offspring, some had white fur, while others had dark gray fur. Use the image below to help you answer the following questions. Which of the following descriptions about the parents is most likely true? A Their gene combinations for the fur color trait are the same.

B Their gene combinations for the fur color trait are different.

C Their gene combinations for the fur color trait depend solely on the environment.

D Their gene combinations for the fur color trait do not affect their offspring.

I believe the answer is B.

4.) metal

"-the movement of carbon from the nonliving environment into living things and back to the environment

-carbon is the essential component of proteins, fats, and carbohydrates (which make up all organisms)

-carbon exists in air, water, and living organisms

-producers convert carbon dioxide in the atmosphere into carbohydrates during photosynthesis

-bacteria in the atmosphere cycles through the system in filtration units

-in cellular respiration, carbon is released back into the atmosphere as carbon dioxide

-some carbon is stored in limestone (forming one of the largest "carbon sinks" on earth)

-largest carbon reservoir on earth= limestone

-carbon stored in the bodies of organisms as fat, oils, or other molecules may be released into the soil or air when the organism dies

-this may form deposits of coal, oil, or natural gas (fossil fuels, which increased the atmospheric carbon dioxide)

-fossil fuels store carbon left over from bodies of organisms that died millions of years ago

-they are located in the surface of earth, deep within the earth and beneath the ocean floor."    

a and c are the answeres
