In guinea pigs coat color is determined by a single gene with two alleles. A guinea pig from a true-breeding black strain is mat
OLga [1]

Answer:

1/3 of black F2 progeny will be homozygous.

Explanation:

Here, BB = black coat color = true breeding dominant black strain

bb = white coat color =  true breeding recessive white strain

When true breeding black and white guinea pigs are mated to give F1 progeny:

BB X bb = Bb ( all black guinea pigs )

When two of the F1 guinea pigs are mated to give F2 progeny:

Bb X Bb = BB, Bb, Bb, bb

F2 progeny has 3/4 progeny as black (BB and Bb) . Out of them 1/3 are homozygous and 2/3 are heterozygous.

Hence, 1/3 of black F2 progeny will be homozygous.

What way do water molecules move when a egg is placed in the water
krok68 [10]

Answer: It has a lower concentration of water (25% water) than the egg (90% water). To reach equilibrium, osmosis causes the water molecules to move out of the egg and into the corn syrup until both solutions have the same concentration of water. The outward movement of water causes the egg to shrivel.
