Answer:
C
Explanation:
This is a monohybrid cross between involving a gene coding for earlobe. The allele for free earlobe (F) is dominant over that of attached earlobe (f).
N.B: let F represent the gene involved.
A genotypic ratio is the ratio derived from the offsprings based on the actual genetic make-up and not based on their phenotypic appearance as in phenotypic ratio.
A homozygous individual is an individual having the same kind of alleles for a gene while a heterozygous individual is one that has two different alleles i.e. combination of the dominant and recessive allele.
The monohybrid cross is between an individual with attached earlobe (ff) i.e. homozygous recessive individual. (Note that, a recessive trait will only be expressed in a homozygous state) and a heterozygous free earlobeb individual (Ff). (See attached picture). Ff × ff
The resulting four offsprings will
be expected to have only two distinct genotypes i.e heterozygous (Ff) and homozygous recessive (ff) in an equal ratio i.e. 2:2 ~ 1:1
Answer:
Pesticide resistance at a population level, as opposed to just a few individual pests within a species, can occur after repeated exposure to a single type of pesticide. ... When a resistant population occurs, the pesticide is no longer useful for managing that specific pest and other management options must be sought out.
Answer:
Proteins
Explanation:
They are found everywhere in the body from muscle, cell membranes, hair, enzymes, and etcetera and are responsible for the phenotype of organisms. Proteins are the ultimate expression of genes in the DNA of organisms. The DNA is transcribed by DNA polymerase into mRNA, then mRNA is translated into protein by ribosomes. This general rule is called the central dogma.
<u>Answer:</u>
During the "magma convection currents", the plate tectonics are pulled apart from each other. This is because if the "magma convection currents" flow in opposite direction, the plates present floating on the molten magma also float apart, causing divergent plate boundaries.
The plate tectonics are responsible for the movement of continental plates. The molten magma present inside the earth acts as a vast ocean on which the plates move as sheets. So if currents flow away from each other they take the plates along with them too, forming great rift valleys.
