Suppose that a dominant allele (P) codes for a polka-dot tail and a recessive allele (p) codes for a solid colored tail. In addi

tion, suppose that a dominant allele (L) codes for long eyelashes and a recessive allele (l) codes for short eyelashes. If two individuals heterozygous for both traits (tail color and eyelash length) mate, what's the probability of the phenotypic combinations of the offspring?
A. 1:1 ratio (half are polka-dot tails and short eyelashes; half are solid tails and long eyelashes)
B. 9:3:3:1 ratio (9 polka-dot tails and long eyelashes, 3 polka-dot tails and short eyelashes, 3 solid tails and short eyelashes, 1
solid tail and short eyelash)
C. 1:1 ratio (half are polka-dot tails and long eyelashes; half are solid tails and short eyelashes)
D. 9:3:3:1 ratio (9 polka-dot tails and short eyelashes, 3 polka-dot tails and short eyelashes, 3 solid tails and long eyelashes, 1
solid tail and long eyelash)

I believe the answer is <span> 9:3:3:1 ratio with 9 polka dot tails and long eyelashes, 3 polka dot tails and short eyelashes, 3 solid tails and long eyelashes and 1 short tail short eyelash! Good Luck in this biology thing your doing :)</span>

Answer:

B. 9:3:3:1 ratio (9 polka-dot tails and long eyelashes, 3 polka-dot tails and short eyelashes, 3 solid tails and short eyelashes, 1  solid tail and short eyelash)

Explanation:

The Punnett square diagram for a cross between individuals heterozygous for two traits, tail & eyelashes where dominant allele (P) codes for a polka-dot tail and a recessive allele (p) codes for a solid colored tail & dominant allele (L) codes for long eyelashes and a recessive allele (l) codes for short eyelashes is attached.

From the diagram attached, it is clear that there will be a 9:3:3:1 phenotypic ratio.

9 genotypes with dominant traits (polka-dot tails and long eyelashes) will be: PPLL, PPLl, PpLL, PpLl ,PPLl, PpLl, PpLL, PpLl & PpLl.

3 genotypes with dominant trait for one character and recessive trait for another character (polka-dot tails and short eyelashes) will be: Ppll, Ppll & PPll.

3 genotypes with dominant trait for one character and recessive trait for another character (solid tails and long eyelashes) will be: ppLL, ppLl & ppLl

1 genotype which will be recessive for both the characters (solid tail and short eyelash) will be : ppll

The conserved residues in the hemoglobins and myoglobins include the ________ proximal and distal to the heme iron.
Ilya [14]

Answer:

Histidine

Explanation:

A heme group is a prosthetic group composed of a protoporphyrin ring and an iron (Fe) atom that binds to oxygen (O2) in hemoglobin and myoglobin. Hemoglobin (Hb) is a protein in red blood cells (erythrocytes) that carries oxygen from the lungs to the tissues, which is composed of four polypeptide chains, each with a heme group. Moreover, myoglobin is a monomeric protein located mainly in the muscles, which contains one heme group, being thus similar to hemoglobin monomers. The proximal and distal are evolutionarily conserved amino acid (histidine) residues whose names (proximal and distal) refer to their position with the iron (Fe) atom in the heme group. The proximal histidine connects the heme group with the proteins (either in monomeric myoglobin or in one subunit of Hb), whereas distal histidine contributes to stabilize these proteins while carrying O2.

How are contaminants magnified up the food chain?
rosijanka [135]

Answer:

Biomagnification also called food web magnification or food web accumulation is the progressive increase in the concentration of contaminants in organisms as the trophic level increases. These unexpectedly large concentrations are the result of DDT biomagnification up the food web.
