From a Punnett square you can get the genotypic and phenotypic proportions of the progeny produced from a cross. Cross: PpRr x PpRr. F1: PPRR, PPRr, PPRr, PPrr, PpRr, Pprr, ppRR, ppRr, pprr.

<h3>What is a Punnett square?</h3>

The Punnett square is a graphic representation that shows the different types of gamete combinations according to the alleles involved in a cross.

Punnett square shows the probabilities of getting offspring with different genotypes and their consequent phenotypes.

In the exposed example, we know that two genes are involved in the cross.

As we can see, there are dominant and recessive alleles for both genes.

Since each genotype in the square results from the combination of parental gametes, we can figure out which are the parental genotypes.

For instance, let us consider the provided genotypes

PPRr.

We can assume one of the parents provided a P and a R dominant alleles, while the other parent provided another P allele but a r recessive allele.

PR + Pr ⇒ PPRr

ppRr.

One of the parents provided a p recessive allele and a R dominant allele, The other parent provided another p allele and a r recessive allele.

pR + pr ⇒ ppRr

pprr.

Both parents provided p and r recessive alleles.

pr + pr ⇒ pprr

From this information, we can assume parents are heterozygous for both genes.

Cross:

Parentals) PpRr x PpRr

Gametes) PR, Pr, pR, pr PR, Pr, pR, pr

Punnett square) PR Pr pR pr

PR PPRR PPRr PpRR PpRr

Pr PPRr PPrr PpRr Pprr

pR PpRR PpRr ppRR ppRr

pr PpRr Pprr ppRr pprr

F1) 1/16 individuals are expected to be PPRR

2/16 individuals are epected to be PPRr

1/16 individuals are expected to be PPrr

2/16 individuals are expected to be PpRR

4/16 individuals are expected to be PpRr

2/16 individuals are expected to be Pprr

1/16 individuals are expected to be ppRR

2/16 individuals are expected to be ppRr

1/16 individuals are expected to be pprr

For a better understanding, you will find the Punnett square in the attached files representing the parental gametes with different colors, and the resulting genotypes with a combination of these colors.

In this way, you will notice which gamete comes from which parent.

How are hearing and touch alike and how are they<br> different?

Juli2301 [7.4K]

Explanation:

They both are alike because they both rely on frequencies to determine perception. In hearing, a sounds frequency determines its pitch whereas in TOUCH the frequency of vibrations is used to perceive texture and to sense the environment through hand held tools.

One of your lab partners has followed the recommended procedure of running Gram-positive and Gram-negative control organisms on

andreyandreev [35.5K]

Answer:

Reduced in holding time of decolrization step and also used less Alcohol because decolrization step is important in Gram's staining.The decolorization step must be performed carefully. Otherwise over-decolorization may occur. This step is critical and must be timed correctly otherwise the CV stain will be removed from the Gram-positive cells. If the decolorizing agent is applied on the cell for too long time, the Gram-positive organisms to appear Gram-negative..

Explanation:

Gram' staining is a technique used in microbiology labs to differentiate between Gram's positive and negative

<u>Gram-positive bacteria :</u>Stain dark purple due to retaining the primary dye called CV in the cell wall.

<u>:Gram-negative bacteria </u>Stain red or pink due to retaining the counter staining dye called Safranin or neutral red.

There are four basic step in Gram" staining

1) Application of the Primary Stain to a Heat-Fixed Smear of Bacterial Culture

2)Addition of Gram's Iodine

3)<u>Decolorization with 95% Ethyl Alcohol:</u>Alcohol or acetone dissolves the lipid outer membrane of Gram-negative bacteria, thus leaving the peptidoglycan layer exposed and increases the porosity of the cell wall. The CV-I complex is then washed away from the thin peptidoglycan layer, leaving Gram-negative bacteria colorless.

On the other hand, alcohol has a dehydrating effect on the cell walls of Gram-positive bacteria that causes the pores of the cell wall to shrink. The CV-I complex gets tightly bound into the multi-layered, highly cross-linked Gram-positive cell wall thus staining the cells purple.

The decolorization step must be performed carefully. Otherwise over-decolorization may occur. This step is critical and must be timed correctly otherwise the CV stain will be removed from the Gram-positive cells. If the decolorizing agent is applied on the cell for too long time, the Gram-positive organisms to appear Gram-negative. Under-decolorization occurs when the alcohol is not left on long enough to wash out the CV-I complex from the Gram-negative cells, resulting in Gram-negative bacteria to appear Gram-positive.
