As a follow-up, researchers placed the Daphnia that were exposed to the Notonecta chemical cues into a tank without chemical cues. The Daphnia reproduced asexually, and the offspring developed in the tank without chemical cues. Predict the relative size of the crest height and width of offspring raised in the tank without chemical cues as compared to the parent Daphnia

Marie Blankenship · Answer 1

The crest height and width of the offspring Daphnia is 10 and 20 respectively.

Explanation:

The Daphnia has reproduced asexually in the absence of the chemical, hence the influence of the chemical is not evident. Therefore, the relative height and width are less compared to Daphnia under the chemical influence.
