1 answer:

3 0

<span>Alleles are each of two or more alternative forms of a gene that are found at the same position in a chromosome. Traits on the other hand, are the characteristics that are defined by genes. So the combination of alleles for a gene is what manifests itself into a trait.</span>

Drosophila eye color is an X-linked trait. Red eye color is dominant, and white eye color is recessive. Which Punnett square sho

Anestetic [448]

The genotype of the mother must be heterozygous.

<h3>Punnet' square</h3>

In order to obtain a probability of 25% red-eyed males from the offspring, the mother must be heterozygous for the trait. The father can be of any genotype.

Thus, the likely genotype combination that will result in 25% red-eyed males are:

$X^RX^r$ x $X^RY$

$X^RX^r$ and $X^rY$

When you cross the first one above, the genotype of the offspring would be $X^RX^R, X^RY, X^RX^r, X^rY$ .

The second cross will give offspring with the genotypes $X^RX^r, X^RY, X^rX^r, X^rY$

Both crosses give a 25% chance of producing re-eye males.

Nikolay [14]

Answer:

The correct answer is - undergo self-digestion and die.

Explanation:

Lysosomes are cell organelle that is membrane-bound and has digestive enzymes in them. These cell organelle help in digesting cells that are worn out, ruptured cells deprived of oxygen by bursting themselves.

Its bursting nature also helps in digesting and killing antigens and microbes. It is a very essential cell organelle that helps in digesting and killing damage cell parts or cells.
