Do you think the shape of orchids is pure Mendelian inheritance, or is it more complex?

The plato answer is:

It is not purely Mendelian, because it doesn’t appear to be one gene that affects the shape of the orchids. There seem to be many genes involved, with variations in the outcome.

I hope this helps :))))

The genetic base of the shape of orchid is very complex.

Mendelian traits are described as simple traits determined by one gene. The different alleles of the gene contribute to the difference in the trait. This is true for some traits in plants, animals including humans and other organisms, but not for the shape of orchids.

The shape of orchid flowers is determined by the ABCDE group of genes that are responsible for the body plan in plants. These genes are the equivalent of HOX genes of animals.

The protein products of different genes of the ABCDE group interact with each other in complex ways creating different shapes of orchids.

Answer:

The correct answer is case control study.

Explanation:

A study in which a comparison is made between the patients carrying the disease with the patients not carrying the disease is known as the case-control study. In the mentioned study, the one carrying the disease is termed as cases, and the one that does not possess the disease is termed as controls.  

This form of study is generally done to predict the association between the disease and the risk factor. In case-control studies, only observation is done as no attempt is made to change the course of the condition. The prime objective of the study is to predict the exposure of the risk elements for the individuals present in two groups, that is, controls and cases. This form of study is also called case-referent studies or retrospective studies.

What are some steps that scientists can take in designing an experiment to avoid false negatives?
Alchen [17]
False negative is a condition when you got a negative result for a specimen which was positive. To prevent false negative occur, first you need to use golden standard test or a test with high specificity. You can do multiple tests to ensure the specimen is negative and using a positive control to make sure the reagent is still working fine.

What is the difference between DNA, chromatin, and Chromosomes?
Serhud [2]
Deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) is the hereditary material that lies within the nucleus of all cells in humans and other living organisms. Most of the DNA is placed within the nucleus and is called nuclear DNA.

A chromosome is made up of two chromatids which are joined by the centromere. The chromatids separate from each other during mitosis to form two new chromosomes. The DNA making up a chromosome is dispersed as chromatin.

Under a microscope, chromatids look like little dots and chromosomes are lines.
