A maternal effect can cause the offspring phenotype ratio to depart from that of classic Mendelian inheritance. In a species of

moth, the dominant allele N codes for brown eyes and recessive allele n codes for red eyes.
If an Nn female with brown eyes mates with an Nn male, what is the eye color phenotypic ratio of their offspring?

<h2>Maternal effect</h2>

Explanation:

In maternal effect the phenotype of the progeny is decided by the genotype of the mother

  • The female partner is one step ahead to her male partner
  • The ovum transcribes some of its nuclear genes prior to fertilization and these genes are responsible for the development of embryo that is why these genes are called maternal effect genes
  • This effect is observed in Drosophila

In the given question both male and female have brown eyes with Nn genotype,phenotype of the offspring will be decided by the genotype of mother(Nn) hence despite of having recessive genotype(nn) all the offsprings will show brown eyes

Which of the following organisms was most likely the most recent common ancestor of all animals? a. multicellular algae b. multi
eduard

Answer:

b. multicellular fungus

Explanation:

In a recent study, it was discovered that there was a genetic relationship between multicellular organisms like protozoa and animals and fungi have a common ancestor as their ancestors had contact about 1.1 billion years ago.

Therefore, the organism that was most likely the most recent common ancestor of all animals is multicellular fungus

Leto [7]

Answer:

Option c. Only the haploid organism may also reproduce asexually.

Explanation:

It is scientifically approved that algae and fungi are able to form true asexual spores. This process of spore formation involves mitosis and resultant spore is called mito-spore which develop into new offspring.

Importance of cellulose and hemicellulose in industrial purposes?​
alukav5142 [94]

Explanation:

Cellulose, hemicellulose and lignin form structures called microfibrils, which are organized into macrofibrils that mediate structural stability in the plant cell wall.

The most important biological role of hemicelluloses is their contribution to strengthening the cell wall by interaction with cellulose and, in some walls, with lignin.
