Consider the genes for pea color (the "Y" gene) and pea height (the "T" gene). For the "Y" gene, the Y allele = yellow peas and
the y allele = green peas; for the "T" gene, the T allele = tall peas and the t allele = short peas. Draw and fill in a Punnett Square for a dihybrid cross of two pea plants that both have the genotype Yy Tt. What is the expected phenotype frequency of Yellow and Tall offspring?
1 answer:
Answer:
9/16= tall and yellow offspring
Explanation:
Two dihybrid pea plants for color and height are crossed to obtain the progeny. The genotype of both the parents is "TtYy".
Each of the dihybrid parent will form four types of gametes in 1:1:1:1 ratio= TY, Ty, tY and ty. A random fusion of gametes from both the parents would give a progeny in following phenotype ratio=
9 tall and yellow: 3 tall and green: 3 dwarf and yellow: 1 dwarf and green

Eukaryotic cells rely on the molecular energy of ATP to sustain all of the reactions necessary to maintain life, in the absence of ATP, these reactions would come to a halt, and the cell would inevitably die.
ATP is a molecular compound that provides the energy needed by most cells to survive. ATP represents Adenosine triphosphate, which is an organic compound that provides energy to drive the essential metabolic reactions of living cells, such as:
- Muscle contractions
- Nerve impulses
- Chemical synthesis
- Nutrient absorbtion
In the situation in which a cell was to run out of ATP, these reactions would stop, given that they require ATP to function. This means that the cell would not be able to send or receive nerve signals, absorb the nutrients it needs, or even create necessary compounds such as proteins. The stoppage of these functions would lead to the death of the cell.
