The law of segregation is the Mendel’s laws or principles
explain that traits are passed from parents to offspring individually instead
of as pairs, groups or sets. So the correct option is option “C” as far as the
given question is concerned. This is a law or principle which states that
during the formation of gametes, two copies of each heredity factors separate
out so that the new offspring can get one factor of both the parents. This law
was the first law in this direction.
<span>Suffocation is a most leading reason of death in grain storage
bins. Grain handling industry is a high hazard industry where workers can be
exposed to numerous serious and life threatening hazards. These hazards
include: fires and explosions from grain dust accumulation, suffocation from
engulfment and entrapment in grain bins, falls from heights and crushing
injuries and amputations from grain handling equipment. </span>
Answer:
12:3:1
Explanation:
<em>The typical F2 ratio in cases of dominant epistasis is 12:3:1.</em>
<u>The epistasis is a form of gene interaction in which an allele in one locus interacts with and modifies the effects of alleles in another locus</u>. There are different types of epistasis depending on the type of alleles that are interacting. These include:
- Dominant/simple epistasis: Here, a dominant allele on one locus suppresses the expression of both alleles on another locus irrespective of whether they are dominant or recessive. Instead of the Mendelian dihybrid F2 ratio of 9:3:3:1, what is obtained is 12:3:1. Examples of this type of gene interaction are found in seed coat color in barley, skin color in mice, etc.
- Other types of epistasis include <em>recessive epistasis (9:3:4), dominant inhibitory epistasis (13:3), duplicate recessive epistasis (9:7), duplicate dominant epistasis (15:1), and polymeric gene interaction (9:6:1).</em>
