In a particular species of flower, tall is dominant to short. Orange petals are dominant to the recessive white color. Using T/t

to symbolize the alleles for height, and F/f to symbolize the alleles for flower color. A homozygous tall, white flowering plant is crossed with a flower heterozygous for both traits. List the genotypes of the parents. What are the F1 genotypic and phentypic ratios

Answer: The parents phenotypes are TTff for a homozygous tall white flowering plant and TtFf for a plant heterozygous for both traits.

The genotypic ratio of the F1 offsprings is 4TTFf : 4TTff : 4TtFf : 4Ttff.

The phenotypic ratio of the F1 offsprings is 8 tall and orange flowering plants : 8 tall and white flowering plants.

Explanation: From the information provided, T is dominant to t while F is dominant to f. A plant that is homozygous for both tall and white flower will have two identical alleles for each trait, therefore its genotype will be TTff. A plant that is heterozygous for both traits will have one dominant allele and one recessive allele for each trait. Therefore its genotype will be TtFf.

A dibybrid cross between the two plants: TTff x TtFf will produce 16 offsprings with four possible genotypes: TTFf, TTff, TtFf and Ttff.

Out of the 16 offsprings, 4 are TTFf, 4 are TTff, 4 are TtFf and 4 are Ttff. Therefore, the genotypic ratio is 4TTFf : 4TTff : 4TtFf : 4Ttff.

TTFf and TtFf will manifest outwardly as tall and orange flowered while TTff and Ttff will manifest outwardly as tall and white flowered, therefore the phenotypic ratio is 8 tall and orange flowered plants : 8 tall and white flowered plants.

Answer:

Explanation:

The parents phenotypes are

TTff x TtFf

The f1 genotype will be

TTFf, TTff, TtFf, Ttff

The phenotypic ratio of tall and orange colored is 4/8= ½

The phenotypic ratio for tall and white is 4/8= ½

The genotypic ratio for each is ¼

Why is salivary amylase active for only an hour or so, whereas lingual lipase isn't active until reaching the stomach
leva [86]

Salivary amylase will be active for only an hour or so because the optimum pH for activity of amylase is about 6.7–7.0 which is available in the mouth but the pH of the stomach is acidic around 1-2 due to which the amylase enzyme becomes inactive in short-time.

The lingual lipase enzyme is present in the saliva but isn't active until reaching the stomach because this enzyme is acid stable and works efficiently in the stomach, not in the mouth.

Amylase enzyme is secreted in the mouth and is responsible for the breakdown of starch in food into sugars and it starts acting as soon as we put food in the mouth whereas Lingual lipase enzyme is secreted along with saliva but it is not active in the mouth rather its activity starts in the stomach which is responsible for the degradation of triacylglycerol molecules.
