Imagine a dihybrid cross. if there are 100 progeny (we are talking about flies here), approximately how many flies would you exp

ect to be homozygous recessive for both traits?

In a dihybrid cross, the ratio of the offspring is 
<span>9-homozygous dominant for both traits
3-dominant for one trait and recessive for the other) 
3 -</span>dominant for one trait and recessive for the other
1 - <span>homozygous recessive for both traits


Therefore there will be one-sixteenth of </span>homozygous recessive for both traits( 9+3+3+1=16) of a 100 flies in the next generation, or more precisely 6,25.

What happens if you don't get your wisdom teeth out?
Blababa [14]
Some wisdom teeth is completely unharmful, as long as your mouth have enough space for it to grow healthy and you are sure that you can clean it properly, they make no problems.

However, if your mouth is too small, wisdoms teeth may grow in a tilted angle, this is big problem indeed. It may cause damage to other teeth since it doesn't grow upright. In addition, it may be a big problem to clean it properly so tooth decay may occur.

Therefore, it's better to visit the dentist and see if your wisdom teeth cause problem and whether you need to remove them or not.

Which of the following best explains how the light reactions of photosynthesis generate ATP?
frutty [35]

Answer:

B. A proton gradient drives the formation of ATP from ADP and inorganic phosphate via ATP synthase.

Explanation:

Light reaction of photosynthesis includes the splitting of water in the presence of sunlight and electron transfer from PSII to PSI via an electron transport system. During the transfer of electron through cytochrome of the electron transport system, the proton concentration gradient is generated across thylakoids. The proton concentration gradient is harvested to drive ADP phosphorylation by the catalytic site of ATP synthase accompanied by downhill movement protons through its proton channels.

Please answer 5&amp;6. Thank you.
erastovalidia [21]

Answer:

5. The correct answer would be an option A. ova

Note: I assume that all the samples are of human origin.

DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid) content of somatic cells of humans consists of 46 chromosomes or 23 pairs of chromosomes. Gametes (sperm or ova) are haploid cells produced by the process of meiosis and contain half the number of chromosomes found in parent cell. Hence, they contain 23 chromosomes.

6. The correct answer would be an option J.

Sperm formation or spermatogenesis is the process by which spermatozoa (haploid gamete) is produced from germ cell with the help of meiotic division.

Meiosis results in the formation of four haploid (n) cells from single diploid (2n) parent cell. Here, 2n is given as 8 so, n would be equal to 4.

Meiosis I results in the formation of two secondary spermatocyte cells (both haploid or 4 chromosomes in this case) from single primary spermatocyte (diploid or 8 chromosome in this case).

Both the secondary spermatocytes undergo meiosis II to produce 4 spermatids (each haploid or 4 chromosome in this case). Spermatids differentiate and mature into spermatozoa.

Is it true that ocean biomes contain a wider biodiversity than land biomes why or why not?
EastWind [94]
The difficulty with this answer, lies in the fact that not all of land and ocean biomes have been completely explored. The ocean is vast, covering approximately 70% of the Earth's surface, with literally vertical miles or kilometers of depth, and with some areas with sparse to no biodiversity. The same can be said about certain areas of large deserts with very low levels of biodversity, void of life, like vast deserts of the Sahara or Gobi. But, the Amazon rain forest contains still unknown species of plant and animal life, just like the ocean. Because of its vastness, intellectually, I would say  the ocean contains more biodiversity, but the answer is scientifically, as of now, yet to be proven one way or the other.
