The answer is 3:1.

If we imagine that plant has two alleles for the trait, we can dominant allele represent with P represents and recessive allele with p. To get purebred monohybrid in the first generation, parents must be a dominant homozygote (PP) and a recessive hetero<span>zygote (pp):

Parental generation: PP   x   pp
The first generation: Pp  Pp  Pp  Pp

Pp represents a heterozygote.
If we cross these heterozygotes:

The first generation: Pp   x   Pp
The second generation: PP  Pp  Pp  pp

If dominant allele determines the phenotype, there will be 3 plants (one PP and two Pp) with one phenotype and only 1 plant </span><span>(pp)</span> with another phenotype and vice versa.

Explain the difference between cell division and cell differentiation. Does either process change the DNA?
serg [7]

Cell division is the process in which the cell divides into two or more daughter cells whereas cell differentiation is a process in which embryonic cells become specialized cells according to their function.

DNA amount changes in cell division but no change in DNA in cellular differentiation.

Explanation:

During cell division, either mitosis or meiosis will take place in somatic or germ cells resulting in 2 diploid and 4 haploid cells respectively. The daughter cells are responsible for repairing or gamete formation. The amount of DNA content doubles in cell division.

In cell differentiation cells become specialized for the functions they have been destined like blood cells, nerve cells etc. Different types of cells are formed because different genes are expressed for the specific function. Hence, there will be no change in DNA only the sequence of DNA dictates the specialized cell for the particular function.

Why can a planet orbit circular?
Alla [95]

Answer:

Explanation:A circle is merely a special case of an ellipse. However, the planets do not quite move in ellipses either. The increased kinetic energy of a planet as its distance from the Sun decreases causes it to behave as though it had a greater mass, which results in the point of the orbit furthest from the Sun precessing.

Which of the following is true?
Katarina [22]

Answer:

b. Mutations that inactivate tumor suppressor genes are important in cancer.

Explanation:

Most cancers have inactivating mutations in one or more proteins that normally,Cancer can result from expression of mutant forms of these proteins: growth factors and mutation in only one of the two alleles is sufficient for induction of cancer, the cells from tumors caused by these viruses is near the c-myc gene.
