In skunks, stripes (S) is dominant to spots (s) and black coat color (B) is dominant to brown coat color (b). If a skunk that is

homozygous for stripes and heterozygous for black coat color is crossed to a skunk that is homozygous for spots and heterozygous for black coat color, what genotypic and phenotypic ratios would you expect to observe among the offspring

The genotypic and phenotypic ratios observed among the skunks offspring are:

Genotypic ratio: 1 : 2 : 1 : 2 : 4 : 2 : 1 : 2 : 1

Phenotypic ratio:

Striped Black coat = 9/16

Striped Brown coat = 3/16

Spotted Black coat= 3/16

Spotted Brown coat = 1/16

A cross is made between a striped black coat (SSBB) with spot brown coat (ssbb). Stripes (S) is dominant to spots (s) and black coat color (B) is dominant to brown coat color (b).

In F1 generation its shows a progeny of SsBb.

If shunks of contrasting characteristics like stipe/spot and black coat/brown coat are crossed the F1 progeny would have all Stripped with black coat according to the dominance. This implies that stripes is dominant over spots and black coat is dominant over brown coat . In F2 progeny, there would be some stripes with black coat and spots with brown coat. However, there would be some shunks with recombination of characters such as stripes with brown coats and spotted shunks with a black coats. This depicts that stripe/spot and black/brown coats traits are inherited independently of each other following law of independent assortment. which states that when two traits are taken in a cross the segregation of one trait is independent to the segregation of other characters.

What role does the cell membrane play in maintaining homeostasis
SVEN [57.7K]



Cellular homeostasis involves maintaining a balance of several factors that make a cell healthy. The cell membrane is a lipid bilayer that prevents that passage of water and ions. This allows cells to maintain a higher concentration of sodium ions out the outside of the cell.

In the post-absorptive state (e.g. 10 hours after a meal), which is not likely to occur?
GaryK [48]
I found the exercise on the internet and these are the options:
"<span>a. gluconeogenesis begins
b. beta-oxidation increases
c. blood glucose levels fall
d. the liver produces more glycogen"

The option that's not likely to happen is "</span>the liver produces more glycogen".
The formation of glycogen by the liver happens after eating a meal with carbohydrates. The level of blood glucose increases, and insulin is secreted by the pancreas and will act by allowing glucose to enter the body cells. When the glucose enters the liver cells, insulin will also act on the liver by stimulating glycogen synthesis. This process continues to happen until glucose levels begin to decrease in the <span>post-absorptive state</span> and, therefore, insulin secretion also decreases leading glycogen synthesis in the liver to stop.
