In chickens, comb shape is determined by genes at two loci (R, r and P, p). A walnut comb is produced when at least one dominant

gene R is present at one locus and at least one dominant gene P is present at a second locus (genotype R_ P_). A rose comb is produced when at least one dominant gene is present at the first locus and two recessive genes are present at the second locus (genotype R_ pp). A pea comb is produced when two recessive genes are present at the first locus and at least one dominant gene is present at the second (genotype rr P_). If two recessive genes are present at the first and the second locus (rr pp), a single comb is produced. Give genotypes for comb shape of the parents in the following cross: Rose crossed with pea produces 20 walnut offspring.
a. RR PP × rr pp
b. RR Pp × rr pp
c. Rr PP × rr pp
d. Rr Pp × rr pp
e. Rr pp × rr pp

Answer:

in the obtained options, there is no dominant gene for the crossed pairs, therefore, no answer would be correct, however, when assigning a dominant character to the P gene, the correct answer would be:

E. Rr pp *rrPp

Explanation:

According to the information obtained we deduce:

Comb shape is produced by R and P

Comb of walnuts with an R or a P

Pink comb: 1 dominant P and R at the first locus and 2 recessive at the next locus

Pea comb: 2 recessive at the start and one dominant in the next position

1 single comb: 2 recessive at both loci

Rr pp × rr Pp will produce from the interbreeding: 2 walnuts, 1 single and 1 pea offspring.

We deduce that for the pink comb the genotype is: Rrpp

and for the pea comb it is rrPp

Rr pp × rr Pp generates crosslinks containing RrPp, rrPp, rrpp as children in a 2: 1: 1 ratio.

Rudik [331]

Answer:

requires that mitochondrial ATP synthesis and electron flow through the respiratory chain be obligately coupled.

Explanation:

The chemosmotic model was a concept formulated by Peter Mitchell, who stated that during the phases of electron transport in the respiratory chain, an intense release of energy occurs. This released energy allows hydrogen ions to be transported from within the mitochondrial matrix to the intercellular medium. The result of all of this is the occurrence of a chemosmotic gradient. However, when interpreting what occurs in the chemosmotic model, we can see that this model requires that the mitochondrial synthesis of ATP and the flow of electrons through the respiratory chain must be coupled.
