7 0

Natural organic compounds produced by plants that are poisonous, particularly to insects, are known as <u>Botanicals</u>.

Botanical insecticides are naturally occurring chemicals (insect toxins) extracted or derived from plants or minerals. They are also called natural insecticides. Organic gardeners will choose these insecticides, in some cases, over synthetic organic materials.

Pesticides are substances that are meant to control pests. This includes herbicide, insecticide, nematicide, rodenticide, bactericide, insect repellent, fungicide, and lampricide.

Examples of plants that are sources of commercially available botanical pesticides include pyrethrum (Tanacetum cinerariifolium), neem (Azadirachta indica), sabadilla (Schoenocaulon officinale), tobacco (Nicotiana tabacum) and ryania (Ryania speciosa)

A short-tailed mutant of mouse was discovered. Multiple crosses of this mouse to normal mice produced 27 normal, long-talied mic

poizon [28]

Answer:

Allele for short tail is a dominant phenotype.

Explanation:

In the second generation , the cross between a group of short tailed mice produces either short tailed or long tailed species.

This means the short tailed mice must be having the allele for long tail trait but did not expressed it.

Hence, when two alleles are presents and one is expressed while the other is suppressed then allele expressing its trait would be the dominant phenotype.

Hence, the allele for short tail is a dominant phenotype.

Cross between two short tailed mice will be as follows

Ss * Ss

SS, Ss, Ss, ss

Out of four three are short tailed while one "ss" is long tailed.
