Answer: The correct option is D

Explanation: The transport of glucose through the cell membrane is carried out by two types of proteins: transporters of glucose coupled to sodium, and proteins facilitating the transport of glucose. In both cases, the method of transport is the facilitated diffusion  through protein channels.

Given the parents AABBCc × AabbCc, assume simple dominance for each trait and independent assortment. What proportion of the pro
Anit [1.1K]

Answer:

3/4

Explanation:

If we assume simple dominance and independent assortment for each trait, we can use Mendel's Law of Segregation to predict the phenotypic proportions in the offspring of the parental cross AABBCc x AabbCc.

<h3><u>Gene A</u></h3>

AA x Aa

  • F1 genotypes: 1/2 AA, 1/2 Aa
  • F1 phenotypes: all A
<h3 /><h3><u>Gene B</u></h3>

BB x bb

  • F1 genotypes: 1 Bb
  • F1 phenotypes: all B
<h3 /><h3><u>Gene C</u></h3>

Cc x Cc

  • F1 genotypes:  1/4 CC, 2/4 Cc, 1/4 cc
  • F1 phenotypes: 3/4 C, 1/4 cc

We want to know the proportion of progeny with all dominant phenotype (A_B_C_). Since the genes are independent, we can multiply the probabilities of each gene to obtain the overall probability of having a ABC progeny:

<h3>1 A_ x 1 B_ x 3/4 C_ = 3/4 A_B_C_</h3>
