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

Why is the modeling of ozone layer depletion more accepted than modeling for global warming?
tekilochka [14]

Ozone layer depletion is not a major cause of climate change. Global warming will be more significant contributor of climate change on earth.

<h3>What is ozone layer depletion and global warming?</h3>

Ozone layer depletion is the thinning of the ozone layer present in the upper atmosphere. This happens when ozone molecules interact with atmospheric chlorine and bromine atoms and break down. One chlorine molecule is capable of destroying one ozone molecule. It is not produced as quickly as it is destroyed.

The phenomenon of rising average air temperatures close to the surface of the Earth over the previous one to two centuries is known as global warming. This change has disturbed the climatic pattern of the earth. The burning of fossil fuels, logging of forests, and raising of livestock all have a rising impact on the climate and temperature of the planet. This increases the greenhouse effect and causes global warming by adding a significant amount of greenhouse gases to those that are already present in the atmosphere.

Ozone layer depletion is more acceptable than global warming because global warming is more responsible for the climate change in the earth, it traps huge amount of gases which rise the earth's temperature. Climate change may not primarily be caused by the ozone hole. Although a larger ozone hole does not contribute to global warming, the presence of ozone, a greenhouse gas, has a warming impact. The ozone hole itself has a minor cooling effect (about 2 % of the warming effect of greenhouses gases) because ozone in the stratosphere absorbs heat radiated to space by gases in a lower layer of Earth’s atmosphere. A small amount of heat can escape from that area into space as a result of the loss of ozone.

What microbial types are likely to be present in each of your fomite samples? Of these, which are most likely to grow on the nut
Alona [7]

Hello. You did not enter the text to which these questions refer, which makes it impossible for them to be answered. However, I will try to help you in the best possible way.

It is only possible to answer your questions in a specific way by reading the experiment, however, I can inform you that formites are objects that allow the colonization and growth of microorganisms that can be major causes of diseases. Among these microorganisms are bacteria, fungi and viruses of the most varied species. Among these microorganisms, both fungi and non-demanding bacteria can grow in a nutrient agar culture medium. This is because this is a very simple culture medium where bacteria that do not need specific nutrients can grow and where most fungi can grow too. However, it is impossible for viruses to grow in this type of culture medium or in any culture medium, since viruses only develop inside a host's organism. Bacteria known as fastidious would also not grow in this type of culture medium, since they only grow with the presence of very specific nutrients.
