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.

The most commonly occurring mutation in people with cystic fibrosis is a deletion of a single codon. This results in:__________
ad-work [718]

Answer:

d) a polypeptide missing an amino acid.

Explanation:

Deletion is a type of mutation when one or more codons from the reading frame are removed. This results in the production of a relatively shorter mRNA that lacks one or more codons otherwise present in the non-mutated mRNA. When there is a deletion of a single codon in the gene for cystic fibrosis, the resultant shorter mRNA codes for a polypeptide chain that does not carry one amino acid. For example, deletion of one codon results in deletion of a Phe  residue present at position 508 in CFTR. The mutated transmembrane protein CFTR folds in an improper way.

if an organism is stationary what is the purpose of having a motile phase at some point in the life cycle?
Sunny_sXe [5.5K]

Answer/Explanation:

Stationary organisms generally do not move by self locomotion.They could move through the actions of external forces such as moving water but cannot move alone.

Most stationary organisms (also called sessile organisms) have a motile phase in their life cycle. This allows them do disperse across longer distances. This is important for the survival of the species, as it means they can exploit a larger food supply and other resources.
