The trait of “freckles” is dominant and represented by A. No freckles is recessive and represented by a. A researcher crossed tw

o individuals, one homozygous dominant and the other heterozygous for freckles. Based on the data in the Punnett square, the researcher concluded that all offspring would have dominant as well as the recessive alleles. What comment would you make about his conclusion?

Well, let's start by solving the punnett square to prove if the researcher is correct, or not. Homozygous dominant is; AA. Heterozygous is; Aa.
    _A___A_
A | AA | AA |
   |------|------|
a |  Aa | Aa |
(sorry if that's not a good punnett square)

So the possible solutions are AA, AA, Aa, Aa

The researchers conclusion is incorrect. Although the offspring all have dominant alleles, not all of them will have a recessive allele.

Hope this helps!

Not all of them would have freckles with the recessive trait because two of them would be homozygous recessive you see this if you do a punnet square

pentagon [3]

VMariaS [17]

Answer: it grows a tube to travel down to the ovary

Explanation:

As a result of pollination, pollen grain lands on the sigma of the pistil or carpel.  On the stigma pollen grain begins to germinate and grows a long pollen tube.  The pollen tube grows longer and makes its way from the stigma, down the style and reaches to the ovary. Pollen tube carries two male gametes or sex cells. One male gamete fertilize the egg cell to produce zygote and the gamete fuses with polar nuclei to form primary endosperm cell.

Ainat [17]
A gene mutation may result in an oncogene. So during that cell's replication the gate keeper genes will no longer be able to suppress it. This results in a mutated daughter cell.  If there is a subsequent mutation an a daughter cell, a tumor will be produced. 

Gene mutation can also cause mosaicism and result in different phenotypes
