-Dominant- [34]

Answer:

a) R= allele for red colored flower

I= Allele for ivory flowers

b) Genotype of pink flowered plant: RI

c) Incomplete dominance

d) 100%

Explanation:

When the dominant allele is not able to fully mask the expression of the recessive allele in the heterozygous state, it is said to be incomplete dominance. The R and I alleles impart red and ivory color respectively to the flowers of the snapdragon plant. The heterozygous genotype "RI" imparts a pink color to the flowers and therefore, the alleles are said to exhibit incomplete dominance.

The genotype of red-flowered snapdragon plant = RR. The genotype of ivory flowered snapdragon plant= II. When a red-flowered snapdragon plant is crossed with an ivory flowered snapdragon plant, the progeny is heterozygous in nature with the "RI" genotype. The phenotype of the progeny is "Pink flower" since the R allele is incompletely dominant over the allele I.

The cell theory eventually replaced the concept of spontaneous generation as a result of what experimental evidence?
Arisa [49]

<u>Answer:-</u> <em>Option C </em>- evidence that microorganisms cannot grow in boiled broth when new organisms were not allowed to enter.

<u>Explanation:-</u>

  • <em>Theory of spontaneous generation</em> stated that the living organisms can be created from non living matter. However, this theory was disapproved and replaced by the <em>cell theory</em> which stated that all living organisms are created from cells and new cells arise from pre-existing cells.
  • There were several experiments conducted by various scientists to disapprove the theory of spontaneous generation however, the experiment that was most successful to do so was the one conducted by <em>Louis Pasteur</em> in 1859.
  • <em><u>Description of the experiment:-</u></em>

-In his experiment, Pasteur boiled a meat broth in a flask (it was known that boiling the broth kills the micro organisms) and then heated the neck of the flask to bend into a S- shape.

The purpose of the S shaped neck was to allow the air to enter into the flask but not the micro-organisms as the micro organisms will settle by gravity in the neck and not reach into the flask.

<em>observations of the experiment</em> :-

1. Pasteur observed that even though the air entered the flask no micro organisms were growing in the flask.

2. Further,when he tilted the flask so that the broth came in contact with the part of the neck where the air borne microorganisms could have settled he was able to observe microbial growth in the flask.

These observations laid the theory of spontaneous generation to rest and proved that <em>organisms can only grow in the presence of pre-existing cells </em>which in this case were the microorganisms.
