Answer:

The correct answer would be B). 75% purple, 25% white.

In Mendelian genetics, the cross between two heterozygous parents results in the production of offspring with a genotypic ratio of 1:2:1. They have a phenotypic ratio of 3 (dominant) : 1 (recessive).

The same can be explained with the help of Punnett square. Let us assume P (dominant) and p (recessive) be the alleles of the gene responsible for the color of flowers in a plant.

The genotype of parents would be Pp.

The cross would produce offspring with three possible genotype combinations which are PP, Pp, and pp in 1:2:1.

Plant with PP and Pp genotype will produce purple flowers and plant with pp genotype will produce white flowers.

Thus, 75% (3 out of 4) would purple-flowered plants and 25% (1 out of 4) would be a white-flowered plant.

Pp><Pp
= PP (purple homozygous)
2Pp (purple heterozygous)
pp (white)

purple= 3/4 . 100%
=75%
white=1/4 . 100%
= 25%

answer: b

Ad libitum [116K]
A laparoscopic cholecystectomy is the removal of gallbladder using a laparoscope which is a narrow tube with a camera and compared to the open cholecystectomy, it only has small incisions instead of a large one. The patient's stomach as part of the procedure will be inflated with carbon dioxide and will be deflated right after the procedure. The nurse should inform the patient then that it is a normal side effect of the carbon dioxide placed into the stomach prior to the start of the procedure and it would just be gone yet patient would just feel a little bit discomfort.

1. Explain the five steps of the scientific method.
RideAnS [48]
1. Scientific method is the techniques that scientists used to carry out investigation process. It is made up of five steps, which are:
a. Observation: this is the stage in which a scientist make an observation to which he did not have an explanation.
b. Formation of a research question:  in accordance to observation made, the scientist form a question on which his experiment will be based
c. Formation of hypothesis: at this stage the scientist offers a proposed explanation for the observation which he had made and state what he expects at the end of the experiment.
d. Conduction of the experiment: at this stage the scientist carry out the experiment using appropriate means.
e. Analysis of data and drawing of conclusion: this is last stage of the investigation, at this stage, the scientist analysis the results he obtained and draw a conclusion based on the results of the data.

2. Scientists used scientific method to carry out scientific investigations because the method minimize the influence of bias and prejudice in the experiments that they carry out. The method provides an objective, standardized approach to scientific investigation; this result in reproducible results which can be achieved by other scientists in every parts of the world. The method also helps to minimize errors during investigation.
