Answer:

The phenotypic variation for the trait is continuous

Explanation:

Genetically speaking, quantitative traits are controlled by many genes, classes are not easily distinguishable and there is a continuous distribution of the phenotype. These characteristics refer to measurements of quantities (weights, volumes, measurements: kg, m, cm, g, m2, etc.).

In other words, quantitative characteristics are those that exhibit continuous variations and are partly of non-genetic origin; that is, they are greatly affected by the environment.

In a dihybrid cross with genotypes JjQq and JJQq, what is the probability of getting an offspring with genotype JjQq?
valentina_108 [34]
There is a 1:4 chance of getting JjQq. The parent JjQq can produce four genotypes: JQ, Jq, jQ, and jq. the parent JJQq can produce two genotypes: JQ and Jq. When we do a punnett square: 
JJQQ, JJQq, JjQQ, JjQq, 
JJQq, JJqq, JjQq, and Jjqq
There are two JjQq.

Which of the following statements represent evidence supporting the endosymbiotic theory? Check all that apply.
Tems11 [23]

Answer:

The statement that says " The mitochondrion contains a circular chromosome that has bacterial DNA sequences" is true among the all statement given above.  

Explanation:

The Endosymbiotic theory that is other wise known as the symbiogensis illustrates the occurrence of the eukaryotic cell from the prokaryotic cells. Mitochondria and plastids are the most studied example in support of this theory. This theory explains that the aforementioned organelles are formed as they are taken inside in one another by the prokaryotic cell. Some of the evidences in support of this theory are mentioned below:

  • Phylogenetic similarity between the mitochondria and chloroplast to the proteobacteria and cynobacteria respectively.  
  • Ability of these organelles to divide only through binary fission as the bacterial population.
  • The associated ribosomes are similar to the bacterial ribosomes.  
  • Presence of porins in these organelles similar the bacterial membrane.
