Duroc Jersey pigs are typically red, but a sandy variation is also seen. When two different varieties of true-breeding sandy pig

s were crossed to each other, they produced F1 offspring that were red. When these F1 offspring were crossed to each other, they produced red, sandy, and white pigs in a 9:6:1 ratio. Explain this pattern of inheritance in terms of number of genes, and any allele or gene interactions.

Answer:

The sandy variation could be as a result of a homozygous recessive allele at one of two varying genes in these two different types of sandy pigs. Let's refer to them as genes A and B.

A kind of sandy pig may be aaBB and the variety AAbb. The F1 generation in this cross produces heterozygotes for both genes to give all red. This indicates that the A and B alleles are dominant. In the F2 generation, 6 out of 16 give us homozygous for either the aa or bb alleles and produces sandy.

Out of 16 will we have one that would be doubly homozygous and be white. The other 9 will possess at least one dominant allele for both genes.

Answer:

Homology

Explanation:

Homology refers to the presence of similar or shared body structures, body parts, gene sequences, proteins, etc. among various lineages. It represents divergent evolution of these lineages from a common ancestor.

Presence of various similar structures in human and salamander reflects the fact that these two species have shared a common ancestor during their evolution. The shared ancestry between human and salamander led to the presence of various homologous body parts and identical gene sequences in them.

Answer:

Answer below! : )

Explanation:

Explain 1) The independent variable is the variable the experimenter manipulates or changes, and is assumed to have a direct effect on the dependent variable. The dependent variable is the variable being tested and measured in an experiment, and is dependent on the independent variable. 2) Testing only one variable at a time lets you analyze the results of your experiment to see how much a single change affected the result. If you're testing two variables at a time, you won't be able to tell which variable was responsible for the result. 3) The control group and experimental group are compared against each other in an experiment. The only difference between the two groups is that the independent variable is changed in the experimental group. The independent variable is "controlled" or held constant in the control group 4) Not sure about this one sorry! 5) hypothesizing, observing, and experimenting. 6) This rule says that where you have one situation that leads to an effect, and another which does not, and the only difference is the presence of a single factor in the first situation, we can infer this factor as the cause of the effect. 7) No matter how carefully observations and experiments are performed, it cannot be ensured that every possible factor is the same in every observation. 8)  Munsell Charts are used to provide standard descriptions and names of color. 9) Nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium. 10) Water table, also called groundwater table, is the upper level of an underground surface in which the soil or rocks are permanently saturated with water. 11) Humus significantly affects the bulk density of soil and contributes to its retention of moisture and nutrients. 12) Texture refers to the size of the particles that make up the soil. The terms sand, silt, and clay refer to the relative sizes of the soil particles. The combined portions of sand, silt, and clay in a soil determine its textural classification. 13) The main difference between sand silt and clay is their particle size. Sand particles are larger in size while clay particles are extremely fine, and silt particles are somewhere in between sand and clay particles. Sand, silt, and clay are the main mineral particles in the soil that affect its texture 14) Mineral matter is derived from the constituents of the parent material.  Organic matter.  The nature and abundance of iron.  Moisture content. 15) In some mineral soils aluminum can be dissolved at pH levels below 5.0 becoming toxic to plant growth. Soil pH may also affect the availability of plant nutrients. Nutrients are most available to plants in the optimum 5.5 to 7.0 range. 16) Phosphorus is essential for cell division and growth and promotes plant maturation. 17) Aspect of soil porosity concerns the oxygen found within these pore spaces. All plants need oxygen for respiration, so well-aerated soil is important for growing crops. 18) The ground above the water table may be wet to a certain degree, but it does not stay saturated. The dirt and rock in this unsaturated zone contain air and some water and support the vegetation on the Earth.

I did most of them! I didn't do the "Identify". I hope this helps! : )

Sorry if I wrote a lot!!
