Nitrogen is a major environmental pollutant of groundwater in many parts of the world. What is the major cause of this nitrogen accumulation in groundwater?

#Unit 10. Ecological Principles
  1. Excessive use of nitrogen fertilizers
  2. Destruction of nitrifying bacteria, which results in soil nitrogen remaining as NH+4
  3. Excess soil moisture, which causes ammonification or denitrification
  4. Presence of sandy-textured soil

You set up an experiment in which you breed two populations of true-breeding pea plants. The first true-breeding population has yellow round seeds and the second has green wrinkled seeds. All of the F1 plants yield yellow round seeds. When you self -fertilize the F1 the F2 generation yields a mixture of yellow round, yellow wrinkled, green round and green wrinkled seeds. What does this tell you about the alleles for seed color and shape?
