Consider a cross to investigate the pea pod texture trait, involving constricted or inflated pods. Mendel found that the traits

behave according to a dominant/ recessive pattern in which inflated pods were dominant. If you performed this cross and obtained 650 inflated-pod plants in the F2 generation, approximately how many constricted-pod plants would you expect to have?
A. 600
B.165
C. 217
D. 468

Answer:

C. 217

Explanation:

Mendel obtained the phenotypic ratio of 3 dominant: 1 recessive in the F2 generation of a monohybrid cross. According to the given information, inflated pods are dominant over the constricted one.

Let's assume that the allele C is responsible for inflated pods while the recessive allele "c" gives constricted pods. A cross between two pure breeding plants with inflated (CC) and constricted pods (cc) would give all the plants with inflated pods (Cc) in the F1 generation. A cross between two F1 plants would obtain F2 generation in following ratio=3 Inflated: 1 constricted.

Therefore, if 650 plants with inflated pods were obtained in the F2 generation, 217 plants must have constricted pods since 650:217 is almost equal to 3:1.

Sladkaya [172]

The answer is; glucose


It is a 6 carbon ring simple sugar and is the most abundant monosaccharide in the body. Its levels in the body are referred to as blood sugars. Larger carbohydrates consumed in the diet are broken down to glucose utilized in respiration (Glycolysis and Krebs cycles) to produce the energy required by the cells. Plants, on the other hand, manufacture carbohydrates in photosynthesis.

Why are viruses considered nonliving but bacteria are considered living? Give to reasons.
Andreyy89
Viruses aren't made up of living cells, like plants and animals are, they either consist of DNA or RNA surrounded by coating of protein. Versus also like the properties of living things. They have no energy, they do not produce waste, and they do not respond to stimuli. they do not reproduce independently but must rely on invading living cells and feeding off a them.

Therefore, there are many reasons my viruses are considered non living but the biggest reason is because they cannot survive on their on and have to feed and get their nutrients off of living things

And bacteria is considered living because it can do all these things that viruses cannot do.
