The correct answer is the second option. Animals have two major types: vertebrates and invertebrates. Vertebrates are animals that have backbone while the invertebrates do not have one. Examples for vertebrates are birds and mammals while the latter are insects and squid.
Answer:
Mutations rarely occur
Explanation:
Mutations are genetic changes, i.e., alterations in the DNA sequence. Generally, mutations have deleterious effects, but there are exceptions where mutations may confer an adaptive advantage in a given environment. Mutations are often deleterious, and thereby these genetic changes are rare events. In consequence, mutation rates, i.e., the frequency by which new mutations arise in an organism over time, are generally very low. Finally, mutations that arise only in germ cells can be inherited from a generation to the next generation, while somatic mutations cannot be inherited.
Answer:
Punnett square is a square diagram which is used to predict the genotype of the offspring produced by particular cross.
Let P and p be the alleles of the gene responsible for the flower colors in a plant.
The genotype of both the parents is given as heterozygous that is, Pp.
Two types of gametes would be formed P and p.
The cross is shown in the image below.
The cross would be result in offspring with three types of genotypes PP, Pp and pp in 1:2:1.
