Sleep reactivates recent experiences stored in the hippocampus and shifts them for permanent storage in the cortex. The hioppocampus is the portion of the brain that is responsible of storing of the long-term memory which would include the experiences and the pas t knowledge. It is located in the medial temporal lobe of the brain. As one sleeps, the brain would sort of replay everything that happened that day. At this time, the hippocampus and the neocortex would communicate with each other to make and store those memories. From researches, it was said that the activity of the hippocampus would increase when an individual is in a slow-wave sleep.

Purple petal color in pea plants is dominant to white petal color. Two heterozygous pea plants are crossed. What ratio of the of

Paladinen [302]

Mendel crossed the dominant purple colour flowered plant with the recessive white colour flowered plant. The F 1 generation produced the heterozygous purple colour flowered (Pp) plants. When two heterozygous pea plants (Pp) are crossed in the F2 generation represented by Pp x Pp, the gametes formed are P and p. Out of the offspring produced, 3 are purple colour flowered plants and 1 is white colour flowered plant. Thus the phenotypic ratio is 3: 1 with one out of four plants being white colour flowered pea plant. When expressed in percentage it is 25%.
