Answer:
It is the cycle when the reproductive organs start to fertilize. Another form of this is called the menstural cycle when natural changes in the uterus and ovaries to make reproduction possible soon.
Answer:
1/8 (12.5%)
Explanation:
An autosomal recessive disease is an inherited disease in which an individual need to receive both defective alleles at the same gene <em>locus</em> to be expressed in the phenotype. In this case, both parents are carriers of the recessive mutant allele associated with the sickle cell anaemia trait, thereby both parents are heterozygous, ie., each parent has one copy of the normal allele 'H' and one copy of the defective mutant allele 'h' associated with this condition. In consequence, their first child has a 1/4 (25%) chance of having sickle-cell anaemia. Moreover, the chance of having a girl is 1/2 and the chance of having a boy is 1/2, thereby the final chance of having a girl sickle cell anaemia individual is 1/4 x 1/2 = 1/8 (12.5%).
- Parental cross for sickle cell anaemia trait = Hh x Hh >>
- F1 = 1/4 HH (normal); 1/2 Hh (normal); 1/4 hh (sickle cell anaemia) >>
- Sex proportion of sickle cell anaemia individuals = 1/8 female sickle cell anaemia individuals + 1/8 male sickle cell anaemia individuals (1/8 + 1/8 = 1/4)
Answers and Explanation:
Find enclosed the Punnet square.
T= dominant allele
t= recessive allele
Tt= heterozygous genotype
TT and tt= homozygous genotype
- The male pea plant's genotype is Tt (heterozygous)
- The female pea plant's genotype is Tt (heterozygous)
- Male gametes: T and t
- Female gametes: T and t
- The expected genotypic ratio of the offpring will be:
TT: Tt: tt ⇒ 1: 2: 1
1/4 of the offpring will be TT genotype (dominant homozygous), 1/2 of the offpring will be Tt (heterozygous) genotype and 1/4 of the offpring will be tt genotype (recessive homozygous).
- The expected phenotypic ratio of the offpring will be:
tall : short ⇒ 3 : 1
3/4 of the offpring will be tall (TT and Tt) and the restant 1/4 will be short (tt).

Answer:
The lac repressor is not bound to the operon.
Explanation:
The lac repressor is a protein encoded by the lac I gene. In absence of lactose, the lac repressor binds to the operator sequence of the lac operon and does not allow the RNA polymerase to express the operon. However, as lactose enters the cell from the medium, the beta-galactosidase enzyme converts it into allolactose which in turn serves as an inducer of the lac operon. Binding of allolactose to lac repressor trigger conformational changes in the protein and renders it unable to bind to the operator. The RNA polymerase is allowed to express the operon.
