unt of oxygen found in the atmosphereb) a graphical representation of the relationship between hemoglobin's percent saturation and the partial pressure of oxygenc) a graphical representation of the amount of hemoglobin found in the bloodd) a graphical representation of the amount of oxygen bound to hemoglobin and how that affects the partial pressure of O2 in the blood

Answer:

b) a graphical representation of the relationship between hemoglobin's percent saturation and the partial pressure of oxygen

Explanation:

On vertical axis-hemoglobin's oxygen saturation

On horizontal axis-oxygen partial pressure

This curve determines hemoglobin affinity for oxygen. If hemoglobin has high oxygen saturation, hemoglobin's affinity for oxygen is high.

As the blood moves through the systemic capillary, hemoglobin's affinity for oxygen decreases, so that oxygen can be released into the cells.

A plant that produces wrinkled, green seeds was mated to a plant that produces phenotypically round, yellow seeds. In the F1 gen
sergejj [24]

Answer:

Genotype of the parental plant that produced round, yellow seeds is RRgg

Explanation:

Let us say that allele for round shape (R) is dominant over allele for wrinkled shape(r)

and allele for green color (G) is dominant over allele for yellow color of seed.  

So a wrinkled green seed will have genotype either "rrGG" or "rrGg"

Like wise a round, yellow seeds will have genotype either "RRgg" or "Rrgg"

It is given that In the F1 generation, half of the plants produced round, yellow seeds and the other half produced round, green seeds.

So if a cross is carried between rrGg and RRgg, the following offspring will be produces

rG          rG         rg         rg

Rg RrGg RrGg Rrgg Rrgg

Rg RrGg RrGg Rrgg Rrgg

Rg RrGg RrGg Rrgg Rrgg

Rg RrGg RrGg Rrgg Rrgg

So genotype “RrGg” gives round and green seeds

And genotype “Rrgg” gives round and green seed

Thus, genotype of the parental plant that produced round, yellow seeds is RRgg
