Flower position, stem length, and seed shape are three characters that Mendel studied. Each is controlled by an independently as

sorted gene and has a simple dominant recessive relationship as follows: axial A / terminal a round R / wrinkled r tall T / dwarf t If a plant that is heterozygous for all three characters is allowed to self-fertilize, what is the probability that the offspring would be homozygous dominant for all three traits? Hint: Use the rules of probability rather than making a huge punnet square.

Answer:

1/64

Explanation:

<em>The probability of the offspring being homozygous dominant for the three alleles is 1/64.</em>

Since the three characters assort independently, the probability of the offspring being homozygous dominant for all the three traits is an independent event.

For independent events, the probability of all the events happening together is the multiplication of individual event's probability.

For a cross involving two heterozygotes, taking tall/dwarf for example:

Tt   x   Tt = TT, 2Tt, tt

The probability of obtaining a homozygous dominant genotype is 1/4.

Hence, the probability of the offspring being homozygous dominant for the three alleles will be:

1/4 x 1/4 x 1/4 = 1/64

Why do Plants cells have cell walls and Animal cells do not?​
zimovet [89]

Answer:

Plants need a rigid structure. Animal cells have flexible cell membranes. So animal cells can have a variety of shapes, but plant cells can not, they have to take the shape of their cell walls. Both plant and animal cells are eukaryotic, so they contain membrane-bound organelles like the nucleus and mitochondria.

What are the different methods of transport across a membrane ?
dusya [7]
If I remember correctly, there are two main types of transport—passive and active. Passive transport does not require energy or ATP, whereas active transport does.


Types of passive transport include diffusion and osmosis, both of which involve moving down a concentration gradient and thus not requiring energy.


Active transport moves up the concentration gradient and does require energy.


Perhaps someone who has taken bio within the last several years can correct anything I might have misstated here.

Which of the following would be synthesized using 5′-CAGTTCGGA-3′ as a template?
Nina [5.8K]

Answer:

Option C, 3′-GTCAAGCCT-5′

Explanation:

The template used for replication synthesizes amino acids with

a) reverse head and tail ends - which means the 5' end will pair up up with the 3' end of the amino acid synthesized by the given template like wise 3' will pair up up with the 5' end of the synthesized amino acid.

b) The pairing of template occurs as per the rule of base pair in which

adenine (A) pair up with thymine (T) and guanine (G) pair up with cytosine(C).

Thus given template 5'-CAGTTCGGA-3' will

               synthesise 3′-GTCAAGCCT-5′

Hence, option C is correct
