Answer:
- Parental cross = Cch x chch
- F1 = 1/2 Cch (agouti coat); 1/2 chch (albino coat) >> 1:1 phenotypic ratio
Punnett square:
ch ch
C Cch Cch
ch chch chch
Explanation:
A heterozygous individual is an individual who has two different gene variants (i.e., alleles) at a particular <em>locus</em>. In this case, individuals having the "agouti coat" trait are heterozygous carrying both 'C' and 'ch' alleles. On the other hand, a homo-zygous individual has the same allele at a given <em>locus</em> (here, the 'chch' genotype associated with the albino phenotype). Therefore, as observed in the Punnett Square above, when a heterozygous parent is crossed with a homo-zygous recessive parent for a single gene, alleles segregate in the gametes of both parents so an expected 1:1 phenotypic ratio will be observed.
The elodea is getting the carbon dioxide from its environment like when underwater animals breathe out carbon dioxide the plants will use that carbon dioxide. The plants can also get the carbon dioxide from the atmosphere which can "dissolve" in water.
Answer:
B. Mitochondrion
Explanation:
The Krebs Cycle occurs in the mitochondria during the processes of cellular respiration.
Specifically, it occurs in the matrix of the mitochondria.
Answer and Explanation:
Because the DNA sequence determines a protein's amino acid sequence, a gene shared by two closely related organisms should have similar, or even identical, amino acid sequences. That's because closely related species most likely diverged from one another fairly recently in the evolutionary span. Thus, they haven't had as much time to accumulate random mutations in their genetic codes.
Answer:
carbon, hydrogen, oxygen, nitrogen, and phosphorous
Explanation:
The phosphate groups allow the nucleotides to link together, creating the sugar-phosphate backbone of the nucleic acid while the nitrogenous bases provide the letters of the genetic alphabet. These components of nucleic acids are constructed from five elements.
