Livestock producers and breeders rank livestock on their ability to produce high quality, efficient breeding animals and market-worthy <u>offspring</u>.
To be able to effectively evaluate breeding and market animals is of vital economic importance for the animal markets. The same traits used to evaluate <u>high-grade slaughter animals</u> are also important in the <u>grading </u>of <u>breeding stock</u>.
When we judge livestock we classify them as:
- Superior livestock
- Average livestock
- Inferior livestock
We are looking for the most desirable traits to fit our particular market and genetic needs. The "Livestock Judging Manual" indicates that some of the most prevalent traits necessary to score a better rating are:
- <em>Live weight</em>
- <em>Fat depth</em>
- Muscling
and many more. The most important of which is muscling given that an animal with more muscle will produce more desirable meat for the average consumer, and therefore can be sold at higher prices.

The question is incomplete as it lacks te end part of the question. However, the missing part is as follows:
In the F2 generation, all possible combinations of these traits were expressed in ratios consistent with Mendelian inheritance. Identify the four dominant traits, and enter them in ALPHABETICAL order in the blanks provided. [x],[y],[z],[a].
Answer:
The correct answer is :
x)axial
y)full
z)round
a)violet
Explanation:
True breeding organisms are organisms that carry two same alleles of a particular trait or character either dominant or recessive. In this given case the two breeding plants have four distinct traits, round, terminal, violet, constricted in one parent and wrinkled, axial, white, full in other.
In f1 there would be only dominant alleles for these characters will be expressed, that is already given in the question-
round, axial, violet, and full
The alphabetical arrangement of the dominant alleles are-
x)axial
y)full
z)round
a)violet
Answer:
Explanation:
An increase in length of the shoot and the root is termed to as primary growth of a plant. It occurs as a result of cell division in the apical meristem. Secondary growth is identified by an increase in thickness or girth of the plant caused by cell division in the cambia or lateral meristems.
1) apical meristem- primary growth
2) cork cambium - secondary growth
3) elongation - primary growth
4) provides structural support - secondary growth
5) increases exposure to light - primary growth
6) increases vascular flow - secondary growth
7) growth in thickness - secondary growth
8) occurs in plants that live many years - both primary and secondary growth
9) occurs in plants that live only one year - primary growth
10) lateral meristem - secondary growth
11) vascular cambium - secondary growth.
