If a homozygous short plant (tt) is crossed with a heterozygous tall plant (Tt), the percentage of tall offsprings is 50% and the percentage of short offspring is 50%.

  • A heterozygous tall pea plant will have the genotype "Tt" and a homozygous short pea plant will have the genotype "tt" because homozygous means that both alleles are identical.

  • Since 'T' is dominant over 't', any plant with at least one "T" allele will be tall (the dominant trait), regardless of what the other allele is.

  • The punett square of the following problem will have 2 squares with Tt genotype and 2 squares with tt genotype.

Hence, the genotypic ratio of F1 generation will be

Tt : tt

1 : 1

And phenotypic ratio of F1 generation will be

Tall : Short

1 : 1

kumpel [21]

Answer:

The correct answer is D: "<em>Apes have a Y-5 pattern of cusps, whereas Old World monkeys have a bilophodont pattern</em>".

Explanation:

Apes and old world monkeys only have four kinds of teeth: <em>two incisors, one canine, two premolars, and three molars</em>. This dental formula is 2.1.2.3.

The old world monkeys characterize for having molars with four cusps joined by ridges. They have bilophodont teeth with better crushing, shearing and wearing capabilities than apes.  

Apes´molars have 5 cusps, a Y-shaped space between those raised points, and no transverse lophs. These characteristics are known as the Y-5 pattern.

Select the three statements that are true. To review the germ layers and the terminology associated with body cavities, see the
soldier1979 [14.2K]

Answer:

A diploblast has no mesoderm.  

A pseudocoelom has the same functions as a true coelom.  In a coelomate, the tissue lining the inner side of the body cavity arises from the same germ layer as the tissue lining the outer side of the body cavity.

Explanation:

Diploblast organisms are the ones that have only two primary germ layers. These organisms have outer ectoderm and inner endoderm but no mesoderm. Example: Cnidarians

A true coelom is derived from mesoderm and is completely lined with tissue derived from mesoderm. The outer and inner linings of the coelom are made of muscle layers that are developed from the mesoderm.  

A pseudocoelom is the one that is incompletely lined with mesoderm. Both pseudocoelom and a true coelom serve as shock absorber and provide space wherein the internal organs can be placed. The fluid present in them sere as medium for transport of nutrients, gases, etc.

Nataly_w [17]

Answer:

An experiment imposes treatment on the subjects, but an observational study does not

Explanation:

Observational studies are research studies in which an effect, process behaviour etc. are observed, without any change. For example, observation of the  possible effect of a treatment on subjects.

On the other hand, experimental studies are studies in which the treatment is included. Experimental studies are randomized, meaning that subjects that are in experiment are randomly put to a treated group or a control group.
