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.

Explain why organisms are more likely to be well preserved in mud than in sand? Justify your response in
xenn [34]

Answer:

Explanation:

Organisms are well preserved in mud because mud has high water holding capacity. It retains water and does not allow oxygen flow which can destroy the remains of organisms. There are some microbes that preserved whose growth are enhanced in water related environment like mud.

But sand cannot retain or hold water. It drains it off and all oxygen bearing water to flow which enhance decay compared to mud. It can't preserve organisms because of the above reasons.

Difference between cytoplasm ans cell sap?
Ludmilka [50]
Cell saps are the liquid inside of a plant cell's large central vacuole, which acts as support in order for it to function. They're made up of amino acids, glucose, salts and water and plays an important role in osmosis.
Cytoplasms, on the other hand, are a jelly-like substance between the cell membrane and nuclear envelope within a eukaryotic cell. They're mostly made up of water and salt, and aid in growth and metabolism in a cell.

Some of the drugs used to treat hiv patients are competitive inhibitors of the hiv reverse transcriptase enzyme. unfortunately,
REY [17]
Such changes would occur mostly likely near or in the active binding site of the enzyme.
Because the drugs used are competitive inhibitors of the <span>HIV reverse transcriptase enzyme, it means that they connect directly to the active binding site of this enzyme not allowing it to preform its function. If the mutations impede this drugs to work, it is probably because they alter the active binding site of the enzyme, not allowing the drug to bind and have its competitive behaviour permitting the enzyme to work normally. </span><span /><span>
