A scientist owns a company that is producing a new chemotherapy drug and the scientist is doing the research?

Why is the equation not the equation of a line of best fit for the data set below?

s2008m [1.1K]

Answer:

D.

Explanation:

The data set has no correlation and cannot be accurately represented with a linear equation.

there seems to be no relation between the numbers

if you know the x value, you can't really guess what its y value is (no correlation)

Applications of data from the Human Genome Project (HGP) to molecular diagnostics include _____.

const2013 [10]

Answer:

Both improved diagnosis of disease and rational drug design.

Explanation:

It is a scientific project that deals with the base pair which make up the human DNA and to identify and map the genes that are present in the genome of human.

It is applicable in medical as well as diagnosis process and this method is the most advance method.

This is use to diagnose many disease like mutation which causes cancer, virus genotyping,forensic lab,anthropology, agriculture,animal husbandry,bioarcheology,bio processing, production of different drugs etc.

Carla is reading an article about a certain species of bacteria that can grow on the leaves of common house plants. The article

baherus [9]

The bacteria are probably eubacteria because they live on common plant leaves.

Archaebacteria living in extreme places(like the thermophile bacteria that in a volcano) while eubacteria lives in normal places. Leaves of common houseplants is not an extreme location, so Archaebacteria is less likely found there. Both eubacteria and archaebacteria could be autotroph or heterotroph, so the information cannot be used to conclude anything.

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

Ivenika [448]

Answer and Explanation:

Available data:

Comb shape is determined by genes at two loci (R, r and P, p).

The walnut comb genotype is R_P_.

The rose comb genotype is R_pp.

The pea comb genotype is rrP_.

The single genotype is rrpp.

a. Walnut crossed with single produces 1 walnut, 1 rose, 1 pea, and 1 single offspring:

Parental) RrPp x rrpp

Gametes) RP Rp rP rp rp rp rp rp

Punnet Square) RP Rp rP rp

rp RrPp Rrpp rrPp rrpp

rp RrPp Rrpp rrPp rrpp

F1 phenotype: 25% walnut, 25% rose, 25% pea, and 25% single.

F1 genotype: 4/16 RrPp, 1/16 Rrpp, 4/16 rrPp, 4/16 rrpp.

b. Rose crossed with pea produces 20 walnut offspring.

Parental) RRpp x rrPP

Gametes) Rp Rp Rp Rp rP rP rP rP

Punnet Square) Rp Rp Rp Rp

rP RrPp RrPp RrPp RrPp

F1 phenotype: 100% walnut.

F1 genotype: 16/16 RrPp.

c. Pea crossed with single produces 1 single offspring.

This is not possible, because the pea genotype involves at least one dominant allele P. There are two possible crosses: rrPp x rrpp, which must produce half of the progeny pea and the other half single, or rrPP x rrpp which produce a whole pea progeny with no single offspring.

Parental) rrPp x rrpp

Gametes) rP rp rP rp rp rp rp rp

Punnet Square) rP rp rP rp

rp rrPp rrpp rrPp rrpp

rp rrPp rrpp rrPp rrpp

F1 phenotype: 50% pea, and 50% single.

F1 genotype: 8/16 rrPp, 8/16 rrpp.

d. Rose crossed with pea produces 2 walnut, 1 single, and 1 pea offspring.

This is not possible, because having one of the parents with a rose phenotype involves at least one R allele, which means that there must be rose phenotype in the progeny.

Parental) Rrpp x rrPp

Gametes) Rp Rp rp rp rP rP rp rp

Punnet Square) Rp Rp rp rp

rP RrPp RrPp rrPp rrPp

rP RrPp RrPp rrPp rrPp

rp Rrpp Rrpp rrpp rrpp

rp Rrpp Rrpp rrpp rrpp

F1 phenotype: 25% walnut, 25% rose, 25% pea, and 25% single.

F1 genotype: 4/16 RrPp, 1/16 Rrpp, 4/16 rrPp, 4/16 rrpp.

e. Rose crossed with single produces 31 rose offspring.

Parental) RRpp x rrpp

Gametes) Rp Rp Rp Rp rp rp rp rp

Punnet Square) Rp Rp Rp Rp

F1 phenotype: 100% rose (31 individuals equal 100% of the progeny).

F1 genotype: 16/16 Rrpp.

f. Rose crossed with single produces 10 rose and 11 single offspring.

Parental) Rrpp x rrpp

Gametes) Rp Rp rp rp rP rP rp rp

Punnet Square) Rp Rp rp rp

F1 phenotype: 50% rose, 50% single.

F1 genotype: 8/16 Rrpp, 8/16 rrpp.

Explain how the conversation of wetlands to farmlands has impacted stream and rivers

Evgesh-ka [11]

Answer:

Wetland reduction has caused a decrease in the absorption zones for excess water. If the excess water cannot be absorbed by the soil, it increases the incidence and magnitude of flooding.
