In a study of black guinea pigs and white guinea pigs, 100 black animals were crossed with 100 white animals and each cross was

carried to an f2 generation. In 94 of the crosses, all the F1 offspring were black and an F2 ratio of 3:1 (black:white) was obtained.In the other 6 cases half of the F1 animals were black and the other half were white. Why? Predict the results of crossing the black and white guinea pigs from the 6 exceptional cases.

Answer:

The genotype of parents for 6 exceptional cross was

Bb * bb

Result for crossing the black and white guinea pigs from the 6 exceptional cases.

Bb * bb

Bb, Bb, bb, bb

Explanation:

Here trait for black guinea is dominant over the trait for white guinea

There is a possibility that for remaining 6 crosses, the genotype of parents would be as follows

Black guinea pig - Bb

White guinea pig - bb

Now when these two genotypes are crossed the following offsprings are produced

Bb * bb

Bb, Bb, bb, bb

Thus, out of four offspring half of them are heterozygous black and remaining half of them are white in color.

Now if these black and white guinea pigs from the 6 exceptional cases with genotype Bb and bb are crossed respectively, then following offspring are produced

Bb * bb

Bb, Bb, bb, bb

Which is of the following statements best describes the structure or makeup of a codon
muminat

A codon is a sequence of three DNA or RNA nucleotides that corresponds with a specific amino acid or stop signal during protein synthesis. DNA and RNA molecules are written in a language of four nucleotides; meanwhile, the language of proteins includes 20 amino acids. Codons provide the key that allows these two languages to be translated into each other.

Answer:

c. accidental removal of the parathyroid glands during surgery

Explanation:

Parathyroid gland is found closely situated at the back of the thyroid gland in the human neck region. Regulation of serum calcium levels in the body is a major function of the parathyroid gland through the secretion of a hormone called parathyroid hormone or parathormone.

During the surgery conducted to remove the thyroid gland, it is very likely that the parathyroid glands were accidentally damaged or removed. This most likely led to the non--secretion of parathormone, which is responsible for secretion of calcium in the body, when calcium levels drop.
