A black rooster mates with a white hen. Based on their genotypes, the chance that the offspring will be checkered is 100 percent

The rooster and the hen must be homozygous dominant for their phenotypes, in order for their chicks to display both phenotypes. 

Rooster= BB (Homozygous dominant for black color) 
Hen= WW (Homozygous dominant for white color)

Answer:

Rooster's genotype is  BB

hen's genotype is bb

Explanation:

Let the allele for black color be "B"

and the allele for white color be "b"

let us assume that B is dominant over b

Thus,

Genotype of black rooster mate can be either BB or Bb

Genotype of white hen would be "bb" as b is a recessive allele.

Now it is given that all the offspring produced are checkered

This can happen only when BB is crossed with Bb, so that all the offspring are checkered with genotype "Bb"

So ,

Rooster's genotype is  BB

hen's genotype is bb

Plant cells have mitochondria, which use glucose to produce ATP. Where does the glucose originate?
Romashka [77]

Plant produces glucose in the chloroplast through the process of photosynthesis. Calvin cycle is basically the biological process through which glucose is produced. The steps involved are as follows:

1. Absorbed CO2 is added to RuBP and 6C sugar is formed.

2. Breaking of 6C sugar into two  3-phosphoglycerate molecules

3. ATP gives phosphate group  to form 3-phosphoglycerate which is later on converted into 1,3-biphosphoglycerate.

4. Electons are required by 1,3-biphosphoglycerate to an aldehyde called glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate or G3P and these electrons are donated by NADPH

5. Enzyme aldolase uses two molecules of G3P to produce 6 C sugar called  fructose-1,6-biphosphate which is further converted to fructose-6-phosphate

6. Enzyme  isomerase converts fructose-6-phosphate to glucose-1-phosphate

In the Gram-stain procedure, Gram-negative, but not Gram-positive, cell wall structures are decolorized because
Elan Coil [88]

Answer: because the structure of their cell wall is unable to retain the crystal violet stain

Explanation:

Due to differences in the thickness of a peptidoglycan layer in the cell membrane between Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria, Gram-positive bacteria (with a thicker peptidoglycan layer) retain crystal violet stain during the decolorization process, while Gram-negative bacteria lose the crystal violet stain

In your own words, explain how the changes in the temperature of ocean water causes movement of ocean water from one place to an
ipn [44]

Well, many people might associate this to the increase in the movement of particles that occurs along with the increase in temperature, but that might not be enought to move ocean water to different places.

I'd relate it to density. Because, the higher the movement of particles, the lover the density. Which means that if we start cooling and sinking bringing new water to the surface, and if that becomes a cycle, along with water currents, we can create a movement.

↑ In my opinion, that is a really good point, so you should elaborate more on how the water currents will affect the process, and that should be it.

Hope it helped,

The blank are part of the circulatory system that transport blood throughout the body​
Nataliya [291]

Explanation:

The arteries (red) carry oxygen and nutrients away from your heart, to your body's tissues. The veins (blue) take oxygen-poor blood back to the heart. Arteries begin with the aorta, the large artery leaving the heart. They carry oxygen-rich blood away from the heart to all of the body's tissues.
