Explain how two organisms can have the same phenotype but different genotypes.

Biology
2 answers:
marta [7]3 years ago

Answer;

This is because the genotype may be have recessive effects or dominant effects.

For example; Genotype RR AND Rr are going to produce the same phenotype and look the same, but the one with the Rr has recessive gene.

Examples;

-Genotype is the organisms genetic makeup or allele combinations.

-Phenotype is the physical appearance or visible traits.

A dominant allele is masks the effect of recessive allele making them not visible or seen phenotypically.

Genotypes are the different allele combinations that an organism has, while phenotypes are the traits that show up physically.

So, two organisms can have the same phenotypes by looking alike, but their genotypes may be, in fact, very different.

What is a scienctific theory

Answer:

" A scientific theory is a well-substantiated explanation of some aspect of the natural world, based on a body of facts that have been repeatedly confirmed through observation and experiment. Such fact-supported theories are not "guesses" but reliable accounts of the real world."

What scientist used radioactive bacteriophages to prove DNA is the
Anna11 [10]

Answer:

Alfred Hershey and Martha Chase

Explanation:

In 1952 Alfred Hershey and Martha Chase were working with bacteriophages or phages, which are viruses that infect bacteria. They knew that a phage had an outer shell of protein and an inner core of DNA. In addition, from the electron microscope observations, they also knew that during infection the virus attacks the bacterium by its tails and introduces its genetic material into the bacterium to multiply using its metabolic machinery. They radioactively labeled two sets of phages: one with 32P (which marks only DNA) and another with 35S (which marks only proteins). In two parallel experiments, they infected bacteria with viruses marked on their DNA and with viruses marked on their proteins. The cultures were shaken with a mixer to separate the virus particles from the bacterial coatings. They then performed a centrifugation to separate the phages from the bacteria, so that the larger and heavier bacteria remain in the pellet, while the phages remain in the supernatant. They found that the radioactivity of 35S appeared in the supernatant while that of 32P appeared in the sediment, from which new radioactively labeled virus particles appeared, demonstrating that DNA was the genetic material.

Ratling [72]

Answer:

<h2><em>To find the answer, I must 160/1,000 = .16, so .16 = q2 and q = .4. Since p + .4 (q) = 1, p (The dominant allele) = .6, which is the correct answer. A strategy I could use in the future to make the question less challenging is double checking the problem and how it is worded so I don’t make that mistake again.</em></h2>
