Naya [18.7K]
During colonoscopy, a flexible Fiberoptic or video colonoscope is used to visualize, examine and photograph the large intestine including the anus, the rectum and the sigmoid, transverse and ascending colon. This procedure is most frequently used for cancer screening and for surveillance in patients with previous colon cancer or polyps. In addition, tissue biopsies can be obtained as needed and polyps can be removed and evaluated. Other uses of colonoscopy include the evaluation of patients with diarrhea of unknown cause, occult bleeding, or anemia; further study of abnormalities detected after a barium enema and diagnosis clarification and determination of the extent of inflammatory or other bowel disease. Colonoscopy is contraindicated if the patient has a suspected or documented colon perforation, acute severe diverticulitis or fulminant colitis.

Which of the following phenomena is a consequence of Independent Assortment? 1. Pure breeding plants, when mated with each other
Natalka [10]

Answer: The answer is that the phenotypic ratio among phenotypes produced from an F1 X F1 dihybrid cross is 9:3:3:1.

Explanation:

Independent assortment of genes explains how alleles on different chromosomes arrange independently of one another during gamete formation.

So, a dihybrid cross involving TWO characters (e.g Seed color & seed shape) would have its respective alleles DISTRIBUTED whether dominant or recessive, for crossing to occur and yield varying proportion of offspring in the well spread ratio of 9:3:3:1; making it a consequence of independent assortment of genes
