All of the F₁ offspring of Mendel's classic pea cross always looked like one of the two parental varieties because (D) One allele was dominant.

According to law of dominance, traits are regulated by discrete units called 'factors' or genes. These factors occur in pairs (alleles) and in a dissimilar pair of factors, one of the members of this pair dominates the other one.

The one which dominates is known as the dominant allele while the one which remains unexpressed is termed as recessive allele.

The law of dominance is used to explain the expression of only one of the parental traits in a monohybrid cross in the F₁ offspring.

In humans, the eye color and hair color genes are located on different chromosomes. Brown eyes (B) are dominant to blue (b), and
Andrej [43]

Answer:

Man's genotype: Bbdd

Woman's genotype: bbDd

First child's genotype: Bbdd

Second child's genotype: bbDd

Explanation:

This is a dihybrid cross involving two genes; one coding for eye color and the other for hair color in humans. The allele for brown eye (B) is dominant over the allele for blue eyes (b) in the first gene while the allele for dark hair (D) is dominant over the allele for red hair (d) in the second gene.

According to the question, A man with brown eyes and red hair will possibly possess genotypes: BBdd or Bbdd while a woman with blue eyes and dark hair will possibly have genotype: bbDD or bbDd. Considering the fact that they produced children with recessive traits for both gene (blue eyes and red hair), it means that they are heterozygous for their dominant trait. This means that the ideal genotype for the man is Bbdd since he will produce gametes containing B and b alleles for the first gene while the ideal genotype for the woman is bbDd since it will produce gametes with D and d allele for the second gene.

Hence, a child with brown eyes and red hair will possess genotype: Bbdd since he/she cannot receive two dominant alleles for the first gene from both parents. A child with blue eyes and dark hair will have genotype: bbDd since he/she cannot receive two dominant alleles of the second gene from both parents.

Why is it necessary to complete the identification of a bacterium based?
Neporo4naja [7]
<span>The trouble with identifying bacteria is that a lot of them look exactly the same. So, identifying by shape and such will only get you so far. However, two kinds of bacteria that look exactly the same under the microscope could have very different physiologists. One may be able to use a certain sugar as an energy source while the other one cannot, for example. Therefore, you can use morphology (physical characteristics) to narrow down the possibilities, but then you must complete the identification using the bacteria's physiology.</span>

Verdich [7]

Answer:

You should never take shelter under a tree when lightening. You should get away from the tree and get as low down to the ground as possible. You do not always have enough time to get to a building so it depends on your surroundings/situation.

Hope this helps!
