Rooting Reflex is a baby's tendency, when touched on the cheek, to turn toward the touch, open the mouth, and search for the nipple. Other behaviors include; sucking reflex; when an object is placed in the baby's mouth, he will begin to suck on it; grasping reflex; when touched on the palm of the hand, a baby will wrap his fingers tightly around the stimulus; moro reflex; infant startle response; when alarmed the baby will fling his limbs outward, then retract them and hold them close to his body. and also Babinski reflex; when stroked on the bottom of the foot, a baby will spread its toes.

Barnacles and mussels are filter feeders that attach themselves to rocks in the intertidal zone. A scientist observed a dense co

baherus [9]

The barnacles are only able to attach them selfs to surfaces in the water. Since the surface is limited, barnacles are attaching themselves to the other barnacles, crowding the rock. The muscles were not able to grow or attach themselves off the surface of the rock. Same thing with the mussels that are growing on the rock. So not only barnacles are crowding the rock, but Mussels as well are crowding the rock.

g a true breeding pea plant with round and green seeds was crossed to a true-breeding pea plant with wrinkled and yellow seeds.

Sveta_85 [38]

Answer:

The probability of producing a round and green plant from this cross is 3/16

Explanation:

This question involves two distinct genes coding for seed shape and seed colour. In the seed shape gene, allele for round seeds (R) is dominant over allele for wrinked seeds (r), while in the seed colour gene, allele for yellow seed (Y) is dominant over allele for green seeds (y).

A truebreeding plant means that the plant possesses homozygous genotype. Hence, a truebreeding pea plant with round and green seeds will have genotype: RRyy while true-breeding pea plant with wrinkled and yellow seeds will have genotype: rrYY. These two parents will produce F1 offsprings with genotype: RrYy (heterozygous).

When the F1 offsprings are self-crossed (RrYy × RrYy), the following allelic combinations of gametes will be produced by each F1 parent: RY, Ry, rY, ry

Using these gametes in a punnet square (see attached image), 16 possible F2 offsprings with a phenotypic ratio 9:3:3:1 will be produced

9- Round yellow offsprings (R_Y_)

3- Round green offsprings (R_yy)

3- Wrinkled yellow offsprings (rrY_)

1- Wrinkled green offsprings (rryy)
