Answer:

none of the above

Explanation:

The dihybrid organism is an organism that has dominant and recessive alleles for a single trait (Aa), whereas recessive homozygous organisms are those that only have recessive alleles for a trait (aa). If these two organisms participated in a cross between them, the offspring would probably have the alleles Aa, Aa, aa, aa. With this we can not say that any trait of this crossing would have complete dominance, because there is a probability that it will not happen, since 50% of the offspring may have recessive homozygous alleles.

Nor can we claim that an epistatic gene will occur, since epistasis occurs when one gene inhibits the action of another, which may or may not be on the same chromosome. Therefore, it occurs when one gene masks the action of another.

Similarly we cannot affirm the presence of a pleiotropic gene, because pleiotropy is a genetic phenomenon in which a single gene has control over the manifestations of various characteristics.

The Oxidation-Fermentation Test is used to differentiate bacteria built on their capability to oxidize or ferment specific sugars.
Once microbes are inoculated,-One tube is sealed with a layer of sterile mineral oil to promote anaerobic growth and fermentation.-The other tube is left unsealed to allow aerobic growth and oxidation.
Organisms able to ferment the carbohydrate or ferment and oxidize the carbohydrate will turn the sealed and unsealed yellow throughout.
Organisms able only to oxidize the sugar will turn the unsealed yellow medium and leave the sealed medium green or blue.
Fragile fermenters will convert both tubes slightly yellow at the top.
Organisms not able to metabolize the sugar will either produce no color change or will turn the medium blue due to alkaline products from amino acids degradation.
Since Pair #1 showed complete yellowing for sealed and unsealed, these Organisms able to ferment the carbohydrate or ferment and oxidize the carbohydrate. So our interpretation will be that the organism has: Oxidation and fermentation OR fermentation only.
For tubes #2 and #3, the sealed tubes were green throughout suggests that they need oxygen for aerobic growth, and the fact that their unsealed tubes showed light yellowing is evidence for oxidation. Sealed - Green and Unseal - Yellow. Our interpretation for these pairs of tubes would be : Oxidation
Tube 1 can be either Oxidation and fermentation OR fermentation only. So reliability of this needs to be confirmed more with additional testing.
Tubes 2 and 3 are most reliable because they can only be oxidation only and no fermentation.

Forward primer: 5'-AGTCTACTCGTAACCGGTTACC-3' Reverse primer: 5'-TAAGGCATCATGGTAACCGGTT-3' The two primers above have the melting

Jobisdone [24]

Answer:

Explanation:

The 3'-end of the reverse primer (3'-TTGGCCAATGG---5') is complementary to the forward primer (5'---AACCGGTTACC-3') and thus reduces the ability of the primers to bind to the targeted DNA sequence. There is possibility of hairpin loop formation or primer dimmers formation
