Colored aleurone in the kernels of corn is due to the dominant allele R. The recessive allele r, when homozygous, produces color
Pie

Answer:

The genes are linked, and the arrangement is coupled (one homolog has both dominant alleles; the other homolog has both recessive alleles).

RY / ry

Explanation:

R_= colored aleurone

rr= colorless aeurone

Y_= green plant

yy= yellow plant

They do a testcross between a plant of unknown genotype and phenotype and a plant that is homozygous recessive for both traits (yr/yr) the following F1 is obtained:

  • 88 Colored, green (RY/ry)
  • 92 colorless, yellow (ry/ry)
  • 8 colorless, green (rY/ry)
  • 12 colored, yellow (Ry/ry)

If the genes assorted independently, all of the possible offspring phenotypes would appear in the same frequency. However, they obtained 2 phenotypes much more abundant that the other two. Since recombination is a rare event during crossing over, when two genes are linked the recombinant gametes are produced less frequently than the parentals.

We can propose that the phenotypes Colored, green (RY) and colorless yellow (ry) are the parental gametes, and the unknown plant has the arrangement RY/ry, with both genes linked.

Can you explain how more life-forms were able to create because of cyanobacteria​ PLEASE HELP
Ainat [17]

The cyanobacteria changed the composition of the earth’s atmosphere by evolving oxygen in what is referred to as the Great Oxygenation Event. This also allowed the ozone to be formed and block off most of the UV rays that are destructive to genetic material. Life was, therefore, also able to exist on land other than in water.

Select ALL the correct answers. Based on these images, what can you say about the tentacles of an octopus and the limbs of a liz
slamgirl [31]

Tentacles of an octopus as well limbs of a lizard are analogous structures.

Analogous structures or organs perform the same function in different organisms that bear no resemblance to each other anatomically. Analogous structures are formed as a result of convergent evolution, i.e. different structures evolving for the similar function and thus having similarity. Tentacles of an octopus as well as limbs of a lizard are used for the similar function, i.e. locomotion in this case.

On the other hand, homologous structures result from divergent evolution. Homologous organs contain a similar basic structure but perform distinct functions in different organisms.
