Assume the California wheat breeder is certain the stripe rust resistant F2 plants in their nursery are either RR or Rr and the

F1 parent of these F2s was the genotype Rr. If they harvest F3 seeds from all of the resistant F2s, what fraction of the F3 would be susceptible to stripe rust?

Answer:

1/4 or 1/2 depending on mating partner of F2

Explanation:

Assuming that the F1 parent Rr mated with a plant with the RR, Rr or rr genotype the F2 offspring would have the following genotypes:

Rr x RR= 1/2 RR, 1/2 Rr

Rr x Rr = 1/4 RR, 1/2 Rr, 1/4 rr

Rr x rr = 1/2 Rr, 1/2 rr

The F2 generation with the RR genotype could not be the parents of the F3 generation because to have individuals with the rr genotype the F2 generation would have to mate with a plant that is either Rr or rr in which case the fraction of the population with the stripe rust phenotype will either be 1/4 or 1/2, respectively.

What is the difference between emphysema and asthma?
Ierofanga [76]

Answer:

<em>Asthma and COPD are both chronic lung diseases. COPD is mainly due to damage caused by smoking, while asthma is due to an inflammatory reaction. COPD is a progressive disease, while allergic reactions of asthma can be reversible.</em><em>With asthma, the swelling is often triggered by something you're allergic to, like pollen or mold, or by physical activity. COPD is the name given to a group of lung diseases that include emphysema and chronic bronchitis. Emphysema happens when the tiny sacs in your lungs (called alveoli) are damaged</em><em>.</em>

An air pressure of 1,005 millibars is equivalent to approximately how many inches of Mercury?
N76 [4]

1005milibars of pressure corresponds to 29.68inches of mercury.

Option D.

<h3><u>Explanation:</u></h3>

Mercury has a density of around 13.6gm/cc. Thus the pressure of inches of mercury will have a huge effect on the value. As far as bar is concerned, it's around the normal atmospheric pressure measured at sea level. Its around 1,00,000 pascals. So from converting a pressure at millibars to inches of mercury, we need to divide the value by a factor of 33.864.

So, pressure in milibars =1005milibars.

So, pressure in inches of mercury = 1005/33.864 = 29.68 inches of mercury.
