x or y because both can cause it
Answer:
The fungicide destroys mycorrhizal symbionts.
Explanation:
Mycorrhizal symbionts is the symbiotic association that is present between plants and fungi. Plants provide food materials in the form of sugar to the fungi while fungi fixes phosphorus for the plant that is present in the soil in unavailable form. When fungicide is sprayed, it kills the fungi present in the soil and deficiency of phosphorus occurs in plants.
Lets say that the genotypes are:
Male affected:XbY
Male unaffected: XaY
Female affected: XbXb
Female carrier: XaXb
Female unaffected:XaXa
P: XbY x XaXa
F1: XaXb XaXb XaY XaY The middle square is female carrier.
P:XbY x XaXb
F1: XaXb XbXb XaY XbY The left square is affected female.
P:XaY x XbXb
F1: XaXb XaXb XbY XbY The right square is affected male.
Answer:
a transgenic copy of the gene C is sufficient to restore normal eye development
Explanation:
In genetics, there are diverse approaches to determining a gene's function. For example, it is possible to use a complementation test to determine loss-of-function recessive mutations when it is unknown if such mutations fall in the same or in different genes. Similarly to the generation of loss-of-function phenotypes, it is possible to insert a gene and thus produce a gain-of-function mutation that restores normal gene function (i.e., to restore the wild phenotype). Moreover, transgenic organisms refer to genetic engineering techniques by which any foreign or modified gene is inserted in the genome of an organism, which can also be used to study gene function. In this case, the restoration of the normal phenotype (wild-type eyes) is associated with the expression of the transgenic gene C, thereby evidencing that the gene C is required for normal eye development. In the last years, transgenic models have shed light on developmental pathways and on gene function.
