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.

Indicate whether the following outcomes of cell division are observed in mitosis only, meiosis only, or both mitosis and meiosis
serious [3.7K]

Answer:

A. Both in mitosis and meiosis (II)

B. Mitosis

C. In both

D. Meiosis

E. Mitosis

Explanation:

Prior to every case of cell division in both mitosis and meiosis, the cell always ensures to duplicates its contents including its chromosomes. In both cases of cell division, the sister chromatids separates, apart from in meiosis I where homologous chromosomes separates to opposite poles. Only one cellular division occurs in mitosis which is involved in the growth and development of the diploid individual but in meiosis, two divisions takes place in the gametes (both male and female) to ensure that the haploid number of chromosomes is transfered from both parents each to the offspring ensuring a constant diploid offspring. Thus a diploid parent cell always produces a haploid daughter cell in the gametes during meiosis. In mitosis, the daughter cells are always identical to the parents cells.

Of the total amount of glucose energy consumed by the body each day, about what percentage is used by the brain and nerve cells?
Alexeev081 [22]

Of the total amount of glucose energy consumed by the body each day, about 20% is used by the brain and nerve cells.

The brain constitutes about 2% of the total body but it is one of the main consumers of energy derived from glucose.

The energy provided by glucose is used for the proper functioning of the brain. It generates ATP which is an energy source that is responsible for r neuronal and non-neuronal cellular maintenance and generates neurotransmitters.

Thus glucose-derived energy is critical for the health of the brain. Lack of energy can cause several brain diseases.
