A horticulturalist wants to produce geraniums with specific characteristics. She knows that the trait of red flowers is governed

by the allele R (RR and Rr) and the trait of white flowers is governed by the allele r (rr).
The horticulturalist has a red geranium with an uncertain genetic makeup. She crosses it with a white geranium (rr) and gets a generation in which half of the plants have red flowers and half have white flowers. What does this combination of offspring tell her about the genetic makep of the red geranium parent?

a. The red geranium is heterozygous for red flowers (Rr).
b. The red geranium is homozygous for red flowers (RR).
c. The trait shows incomplete dominance.
d. The red geranium is homozygous for white flowers (rr).

I'm not sure about this question.

<span>The answer is  A -The red geranium is heterozygous for red flowers (Rr).

We know that the red flower, to be red needs to have at least a dominant allele, so it could be either Rr or RR.
Let's try both scenarios.
If the white</span><span> geranium (rr) is being crossed with RR, all the offspring would be red with genotype: Rr.
On the other hand, if the flower is Rr and it's being crossed with rr, that would result in </span><span>half of the new generation plants having red flowers and the other half white flowers.</span>

What are the products of aerobic respiration?
bixtya [17]
I am confused as to what your question is specifically asking but the chemical formula for aerobic respiration is:

Oxygen + Glucose --------> Carbon Dioxide + Water
O₂ + C₆H₁₂O₆ --------> CO₂ + H₂O

Hopefully this will aid you in answering your question :)

Nikitich [7]

According to lecture, the level of emission reductions pledged by individual countries at the paris climate agreements are sufficient to prevent dramatic climate change according to many scientists. <u>The statement is False.</u>

The issue is that many scientists believe the existing pledged emission reductions won't stop serious climate change.Leading the way in global efforts to combat climate change has been the EU. It played a key role in negotiating the Paris Agreement and continues to lead the world.

The EU presented its updated and improved NDC in December 2020, along with information to promote the ICTU (clearness, transparency, and understanding) of the NDC and a target to cut emissions by at least 55% from 1990 levels by 2030.

By working together, the EU and its Member States are committed to a legally-binding goal of a net domestic reduction of greenhouse gas emissions of at least 55% from 1990 to 2030.
