Answer:
The options
a. 3:4
b. 3:1
c. 4:3
d. 4:9
e. 1:3
The CORRECT ANSWER IS e.
e. 1:3
Explanation:
Compound A (green) , GENE A is transformed to Compound B (blue)
Compound B (blue) , GENE B is transformed to Compound C (red)
After gene A as transformed the compund A to compound B, gene B can can transform the compound B to C. Therefore, once gene A is forming blue colour from green, gene B as the capability to form red colour from the blue one.
Lets cross AaBb X AaBb (the product of the cross is shown in the attached image. )
we will have the following genotypes:
AABB-1
AABb- 2
AaBB-2
AaBb-4
We obtain a functional copy of A and B gene from the cross. Thus, the transformation of colour will proceed from green to red and they will form red colour, giving us 9 red colour.
AA bb -1
Aa bb -2
The functional B gene is absent in these organism while the funtional A gene can be seen, thus only blue colour will be formed or 3 individual will give the blue colour.
aa BB -1
aa Bb -2
aa bb-1
these set of individual will not give or form any colour as they do not possess the functional A gene which is a requirement for starting the cascade of transforming the compounds.
Therefore, the blue to red offspring will be
3:9 or 1:3
The CORRECT ANSWER is e.
