Sweet yellow tomatoes with a pear shape bring a high price per basket to growers. Pear shape, yellow color, and terminal flower

position are recessive traits produced by alleles, f, r, and t, respectively.
The dominant phenotypes for each trait – full shape, red color, and axial flower position – are the product of dominant alleles F, R, and T. A farmer has two pure-breeding tomato lines. One is full, yellow, terminal and the other is pear, red, axial. Design a breeding experiment (crosses) that will produce a line with tomato that is pure-breeding for pear shape, yellow color, and axial flower position.

Answer and Explanation: The farmer has a pure-breeding line of tomato means the farmer has a tomato with genotype FFrrtt while the other line of tomato has genotype ffRRTT.

The cross between these lines gives a F1 generation of heterozygous full, red and axial or FfRrTt.

With an individual of F1 crosses with another individual of F1, the Punnet Square will be:

FfRrTt x FfRrTt

1) Dividing each characteristics, for simplicity:

          F         f

F       FF       Ff

f        Ff        ff

          R       r

R       RR     Rr

r        Rr      rr

         T      t

T       TT   Tt

t        Tt     tt

Analysing Punnett squares, we notice the line wanted (ffrrTT) will be produced, when an individual of F1 generation cross with another individual with the same generation.

In winter, although many parts of Europe have heavy snow falls, the sea ports remain ice-free and ships come and go. What could
son4ous [18]

The answer is (A. A warm current flows along the coast.) Currents carry cold and warm water from place to place. It's an amazing phenomenon that scientists are still trying to fully figure out.  Some think it's caused by wind, others think it's caused by the shifting of the tectonic plates, but one thing's for sure, currents are VITAL for this planets life.

Which puppy is the heaviest?
12345 [234]

Answer : B is the heaviest puppy amongst all.

Explanation : There are three comparisons shown in the figure, out of which B is assumed to be heaviest amongst all on the basis of following assumptions.

When weighing A and C puppy, A was found to have lighter weight than C. So, in this case C is the heavier puppy.

In second case, when C and D are weighed, both are found to be equal in weight.

Then last comparison was with B and D puppies where, D was observed to be of light weight and B proved to be the heaviest.

Therefore, the conclusion is that B is the heaviest puppy in comparison with rest others.
