The missing box will have genotype Tt

The phenotype will be tasters for PTC as TT, Tt

Explanation:

The taste of PTC is determined by the alleles on the PTC gene. It is a dominant trait. Those who are able to taste PTC have dominant alleles of TT (Homozygous or Tt Heterozygous).

Those having recessive gene tt are said to be non-tasters.

Those with the dominant allele in their PTC gene will find the taste of PTC bitter.

Those with the recessive allele in their PTC gene will find the taste of PTC as tasteless.

Thus genetic make-up of the individual decides their taste. The Phenotype can be either tasters or non-tasters.

TT, Tt (tasters)

tt ( non-tasters)

This follows Mendel's Law of Dominance.

Only answer if you know the answer
Volgvan

Answer:

B. A helicase enzyme unwinds the DNA molecule, then corresponding nucleotides are added to the separated original strand forming two separate semiconservative molecules

Explanation:

DNA Replication is an important phenomenon as far as cell division is concerned. It is the process whereby a DNA molecule doubles its content or forms two DNA molecules from one.

In the semi-conservative model of DNA replication, an enzyme called DNA helicase unwinds the double stranded DNA molecule into two single strands. The single strands are then used as template for DNA polymerase to synthesize another molecule of DNA. Hence, two separate DNA molecules comprising of one old strand and one new strand.
