Answer:

There is no attached photo in this question, however, the question can still be answered. The question also lacks options; they are

A.Comparative B. Descriptive. C. Controlled. D. Experimental

The answer is D. Experimental investigation

Explanation:

There are three types of investigations in science namely: descriptive, comparative, and experimental investigations. Experimental investigations are those investigations that has to do with the testing of how one variable affects another.

In an experimental investigation, a variable called INDEPENDENT VARIABLE is changed to effect a response in another variable called DEPENDENT VARIABLE. In this question, a group of students is testing to see if earthworms prefer rough or smooth surface. Hence, they are testing to see how texture of a surface (rough or smooth), which is the independent variable affects the preference of earthworm. Hence, it is an EXPERIMENTAL VARIABLE.

Suppose two independently assorting genes are involved in the pathway that determines fruit color in squash. These genes interac
makvit [3.9K]

Answer:

100% yellow fruit color, Yyww.

Explanation:

<u>Available data</u>:

  • two independently assorting genes
  • the W allele codes for a dominant white phenotype
  • w allele codes for a colored squash
  • The allele Y codes for a dominant yellow phenotype
  • the allele y codes for a recessive green phenotype
  • The phenotypes from the first locus will always mask the phenotype produced by the second locus if the dominant allele (W) is present at the first locus. This masking pattern is known as dominant epistasis

Epistasis means "interruption" and refers to interactions between genes located in different loci in the same chromosome. An “epistatic gene” can alter, influence, or suppress the expression of a "hypostatic gene". When the epistatic gene is dominant, the interaction is known as "dominant epistasis".

W suppresses the expression of Y and y, this means that whenever W is present, the fruit is white. If W <u>is not</u> present, the fruit color can be expressed.

So, the proposed cross in the present problem occurs between a green fruited individual and yellow fruited individual, which suggests that W is absent.

<em>Genotype for Green fruit: yyww</em>

<em>Genotype for purebred Yellow fruit: YYww</em>

Cross:

Parental) YYww    x    yyww

Gametes) Yw  Yw  Yw  Yw  yw  yw  yw  yw

Punnet square)    Yw       Yw       Yw      Yw

                 yw    Yyww  Yyww  Yyww  Yyww

                 yw    Yyww  Yyww  Yyww  Yyww

                 yw    Yyww  Yyww  Yyww  Yyww

                 yw    Yyww  Yyww  Yyww  Yyww

F1) 100% Yellow fruited plants, Yyww

As these two genes assort independently, we can also represent the cross for each gene by separate, like this:

For w gene:

Parental) ww  x  ww

Gametes) w w w w

Punnet square)  w     w

                 w     ww   ww

                 w      ww  ww

F1) 4/4 or 100% colored-fruits

For Y gene:

Parental) YY  x  yy

Gametes) Y Y y y

Punnet square)  Y     Y

                 y     Yy     Yy

                 y     Yy     Yy

F1) 4/4 or 100% yellow fruits, Yy.

Why do females produce fewer gametes?
yaroslaw [1]
Coz they need food to live long and so they r big in size containing large amount of food. if they'll divide to form more no. of gametes then their food content will decrease and so theyll die

omeli [17]

Answer:

Glycolysis

Explanation:

Glycolysis is the first step in cellular respiration, both aerobic and anaerobic.

Glycolysis occurs in the cytoplasm, whereas other steps of aerobic respiration occur in the mitochondria.

During glycolysis, a six carbon glucose molecule is broken down into two three carbon molecules of pyruvic acid. This process yields two molecules of ATP. Two hydrogen ions and two molecules of water are also released during the process.
