Darwins proposed theory is the survival of the fittest.
Answer:
In a fruit fly experiment, grey body, normal winged (homozygous dominant) fruit flies were mated with black body, short winged (homozygous recessive) fruit flies. The F1 dihybrid females were then used in a test cross. If the genes are always linked and no crossing over occurs, what would be the predicted ratio in the F2 generation?
GG x bb = Gb, Gb, Gb and Gb F1 generation
grey body heterozygous offspring 4:0
Gb x Gb= GG, Gb, Gb, and bb F2 generation
3:1 three grey body fly and one black body fly
Explanation:
Absorbation is the term for when water enters the ground because it is the ground absorbing the water.
Answer:
75% brown, 25% white
Explanation:
This question involves a single gene coding for color in chickens. The allele for brown color (B) is dominant over the allele for white color (b).
According to this question, a brown rooter with genotype 'BB' was crossed with a white hen (bb). The offsprings in the F1 generation will all possess the 'Bb' genotype and be brown colored. However, if these F1 offsprings are self-mated i.e Bb × Bb, the proportion of F2 offsprings will be 1BB, 2Bb, 1bb.
Since BB, Bb and Bb offsprings are Brown in color and bb is white in color, this means that the expected phenotypic appearance of the F2 offsprings will be:
¾ or 75% brown and ¼ or 25% white
