The genetic fault that usually causes colour vision deficiency is passed on in what's known as an X-linked inheritance pattern.
This means:
1) it mainly affects boys, but can affect girls in some cases
2) girls are usually carriers of the genetic fault – this means they can pass it on to their children, but do not have a colour vision deficiency themselves
3) it's usually passed on by a mother to her son – the mother will often be unaffected as she'll normally just be a carrier of the genetic fault
4) fathers with a colour vision deficiency will not have children with the problem unless their partner is a carrier of the genetic fault
5) it can often skip a generation – for example, it may affect a grandfather and their grandson
6) girls are only affected if their father has a colour vision deficiency and their mother is a carrier of the genetic fault
1. High amount of glucose in the blood
Answer:
c. 1:2:1
The results are consistent with incomplete dominance for this trait, with pink flowers being heterozygous.
Explanation:
If flower color were determined by a gene showing incomplete dominance, the possible genotypes and phenotypes are as follows:
- RR- red
- ww - white
- Rw - pink
If pink sweet peas are self-pollinated, then a cross between two heterozygous individuals is done (Rw x Rw).
<u>From this cross the expected ratios are:</u>
- 1/4 RR (red)
- 2/4 Rw (pink)
- 1/4 ww (white)
So the null hypothesis is that the observed results exhibit a 1:2:1 ratio.
<h3><u>Chi square test</u></h3>
<u>The observed frequencies were:</u>
Total 150
<u>The expected frequencies for our null hypothesis are:</u>
- 1/4 x 150 = 37.5 Red
- 2/4 x 150 = 75 Pink
- 1/4 x 150 = 37.5 white
The degrees of freedom (DF) are calculated as number of phenotypes - 1; in this case DF = 3-1 = 2.
If we look at the Chi square table, for 2 DF and a probability of p0.05, the critical value is 5.991
Our X^2 value of 0.5067 is less than the critical value, so we do not reject the null hypothesis. The results are consistent with incomplete dominance for this trait, with pink flowers being heterozygous.
Answer:
That hemoglobin is the substance that transports oxygen..
The correct answer is - They supply the energy needed for living processes.
Both the carbon and the nitrogen, are gases that are crucial for the survival of the organisms on the planet. They are mostly used by the producers in the ecosystems, as they need them to manage to perform their cycles, get nutrition, and of course energy. The producers are the basis of the ecosystems, so if they do not have a healthy supply of carbon and nitrogen, the ecosystems on the whole planet will collapse. The carbon and the nitrogen later go from one organism to another as the energy is transferred, and usually end up back into the atmosphere again.
