Answer:
Ss and ss
Explanation:
<em>Since the smooth trait (S) is dominant over the wrinkle trait (s), the genotype of the wrinkled pea parent is definitely </em><em>ss</em><em>.</em>
<em>Also, some of the progeny had wrinkled pea texture (ss). Each of the 2 wrinkled alleles must have been donated by each of the parent. It thus means that the smooth pea parent is heterozygous for the trait (</em><em>Ss</em><em>).</em>
Now, let us look at a cross between the two parents;
Ss x ss
Progeny: Ss, Ss, ss, ss.
Phenotypically, 50% of the progeny are smooth peas while 50% are wrinkled.
Looking at the population of each of the phenotype resulting from the cross. 252:247 is approximately a 50:50 ratio.
Hence, the genotypes of the two parents are Ss and ss.
Answer:
The correct answer is - osmosis.
Explanation:
Paramecium lives in freshwater like the Potomac River which is hypotonic to the cytosol of the paramecium. Paramecium uses contractile vacuoles to transport the water from the lower concentration (outside of the cell) to a high concentration of solvent to the inside of the cells.
This process of cell transport is carried out by osmosis as their cytoplasm contains a higher concentration of solutes outside the cell. This excess water is collected into vacuoles called contractile vacuole that swells and finally internalized the water to the outside of the cell.
Thus, the correct answer is - osmosis.
