In the datura plant, purple flower color is controlled by a dominant allele P. White flowers are found in plants homozygous for

the recessive allele p. Suppose that a purple-flowered datura plant with an unknown genotype is self-fertilized and that its progeny are 28 purple-flowered plants and 10 white-flowered plants.
Part A

Use the results of the self-fertilization to determine the genotype of the original purple-flowered plant.

a. Pp
b. PP
c. pp

Part B

If one of the purple-flowered progeny plants is selected at random and self-fertilized, what is the probability it will breed true?

a. 1/3
b. 1/4
c. 3/4
d. 2/3

Answer:

Part A: Pp

Part B: 1/3

Explanation:

A: The purple flower color is regulated by dominant allele "P". Since self-fertilization of the purple-flowered plant with unknown genotype gives both purple and white-flowered progeny in almost 3:1 ratio, the parent plant was heterozygous dominant for the trait. Its genotype is "Pp".

Segregation of recessive and dominant alleles during gamete formation leads to the production of two types of gametes with either "P" or "p" alleles. The random fusion of these gametes produces progeny in following phenotype ratio= 3 purple: 1 white.

B. Out of the 3 purple-flowered progeny, 1 is homozygous dominant (PP). Therefore, the probability of the purple-flowered progeny to breed true is 1/3.

ADVANTAGES OFCORONA VIRUS
RUDIKE [14]

Answer:

Coronavirus in its own doesn't have an advantage.

I believe that it helps us to prevent other epidemic diseases such as cholera and other diseases that are caused by lack of sanitization.

Since washing hands frequently is the way of preventing coronavirus.

And wearing mask also helps us to prevent other respiratory diseases being transmitted.

Answer:

In cross-pollinating plants that either produce yellow or green pea seeds exclusively, Mendel found that the first offspring generation (f1) always has yellow seeds. ... that a trait may not show up in an individual but can still be passed on to the next generation.
