It is just called: a simple fracture. BUT when the bone does pierce the skin it's called a compound fracture. <span />

Complete the Punnett square below by showing the genetic makeup of the parent plats of the cross shown.Be sure to show both gene
aksik [14]

Answer:

The correct answer is -

Parent 1: RW, Parent 2: RR

Explanation:

In the given punnet square there are four offspring and it is a monohybrid cross between parent 1 and parent 2. The four offspring produced in this cross have RR, RR, RW, and RW alleles. By the genotype of the offsprings, it is clear that there are 50 percent pure or true-bred and 50 percent are heterozygous.

Each parent contribute two alleles and these alleles are independently assort in the zygote to form offspring so there must be R, R, R and W allele present in the parent

Parent 2  →       R     R

Parent 1 ↓     R  RR   RR  (one allele (R) come from each parent in zygote)

                    W  RW  RW (one allele  (R and W) come from each parent)

What is an important characteristic of the plant cell wall?
salantis [7]


The best answer is b - it is rigid.

The cell wall is defined as the rigid, outermost layer found in plants and also certain bacteria, algae and fungi. It is absent in animal cells.

The plant cell wall is made up  cellulose which is a structural carbohydrate. The cell wall is rigid and thus offers structural support allowing plant such as trees to grow to great heights.

It also helps prevent water loss, helps protect against insects and pathogens and keeps the shape of the plant.

In chickens, comb shape is determined by genes at two loci (R, r and P, p). A walnut comb is produced when at least one dominant
Ivenika [448]

Answer and Explanation:

<em><u>Available data</u></em>:

  • Comb shape is determined by genes at two loci (R, r and P, p).
  • The walnut comb genotype is R_P_.
  • The rose comb genotype is R_pp.
  • The pea comb genotype is rrP_.
  • The single genotype is rrpp.

a. <em>Walnut crossed with single produces 1 walnut, 1 rose, 1 pea, and 1 single offspring: </em>

F1 phenotype: 25% walnut, 25% rose, 25% pea, and 25% single.

F1 genotype: 4/16 RrPp, 1/16 Rrpp, 4/16 rrPp, 4/16 rrpp.

b. <em>Rose crossed with pea produces 20 walnut offspring</em>.

F1 phenotype: 100% walnut.

F1 genotype: 16/16 RrPp.

c. <em>Pea crossed with single produces 1 single offspring</em>.

This is not possible, because the pea genotype involves <u>at least</u> one dominant allele P. There are two possible crosses: <em>rrPp x rrpp</em>, which must produce half of the progeny pea and the other half single, or <em>rrPP x rrpp</em> which produce a whole pea progeny with no single offspring.

F1 phenotype: 50% pea, and 50% single.

F1 genotype: 8/16 rrPp, 8/16 rrpp.

d. <em>Rose crossed with pea produces 2 walnut, 1 single, and 1 pea offspring</em>.

This is not possible, because having one of the parents with a rose phenotype  involves <u>at least one R allele</u>, which means that <u>there must be rose phenotype</u> in the progeny.

F1 genotype: 4/16 RrPp, 1/16 Rrpp, 4/16 rrPp, 4/16 rrpp.

F1 phenotype: 100% rose (31 individuals equal 100% of the progeny).

F1 genotype: 16/16 Rrpp.
