The correct answer is:

C) Carbohydrates are organic macro molecules that are made up of carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen atoms and are used for energy storage or as structural molecules.

They are commonly found in things such as pasta, sweets, or anything similar, and give a lot of energy that gets quickly burned.

Explanation:

In food science and in several informal contexts, the term "carbohydrate" usually means that any food that's significantly wealthy within the advanced macro molecule starch (such as cereals, bread and pasta) or straightforward carbohydrates, like sugar (found in candy, jams, and desserts)

In summer squash, white fruit (H) is dominant over yellow (h), and the flattened disc-shaped fruit (D) is dominant over the sphe

Alekssandra [29.7K]

Answer:

a. It is a dihybrid cross

b. 0%

c. 0%

d. 0%

e. 100%

f. 0%

g. 0%

Note: Answers are given assuming that hhRD = hhDD

Explanation:

a. The cross, HHdd x hhDD is a dihybrid cross involving two traits: fruit colour and fruit shape

2. Gametes produced in the cross are given below:

for HHdd= Hd and Hd

For hhDD = hD and hD

Offspring produced in the cross:

All HhDd, which represents white and the flattened disc-shaped fruit white since They are both dominant characters.

b. Percentage of the offspring from this cross expected to have the HHDD genotype = 0%

c. Percentage of the offspring from this cros expected to have the hhDD genotype = 0%

d. Percentage of the offspring from this cross expected to have the HhDd genotype = 0%

e. Percentage of the offspring from this cross are expected to produce white and disc-shaped fruits (HHDD or HhDD or HhDd) = 100%

f. Percentage of the offspring from this cross expected to produce white and spherical fruits (HHdd or Hhdd) = 0%

g. Percentage of the offspring from this cross expected to produce yellow and disc-shape (hhDD or hhDd) = 0%

What is the process by which two haploid cells (1n) combine to form a diploid cell (2n)?

Gnom [1K]

1 diploid cell (2n) cell becomes 4 haploid (n) germ cells (eggs or sperm). During meiosis, chromosomes are replicated once in S phase (just like mitosis), but the cell divides twice. ... The result: chromosomes after meiosis are genetically unique and have combinations of DNA derived from both parents.
