Hair pigmentation in mammals follows the generic enzymatic pathway depicted below. Enzyme A synthesizes a black pigment from a p

recursor, and the contribution of enzyme B results in the final agouti pigment:
Precursor molecule (colorless) Black pigment Agouti pigment

Each enzyme is coded by a single allele with complete dominance. If a crossing design begins with true breeding parents for coat color with the genotypes AAbb and aaBB. What will be the expected F2 genotypic and phenotypic ratios of the eventual F2 progeny?

Answer:

Given,

Colourless molecule is converted to black pigment by enzyme A. Black pigment is converted to agouti pigment by enzyme B.

Parent 1: AAbb = Black

Parent 2: aaBB = Colourless

AAbb X aaBB = AaBb (F1) The entire progeny is agouti coloured since dominant alleles for both the genes are present.

When AaBb X AaBb according to dihybrid cross in F2 :

A_B_  = 9 ( Agouti )

A_bb  = 3  ( Black )

aaB_  = 3  ( Colourless )

aabb   = 1 ( Colourless )

Hence genotypic ratio is 9 : 3 : 3 : 1

and phenotypic ratio is 9 (agouti) : 3 (black) : 4 (colourless)

What does cladistic analysis compare
viktelen [127]

Answer:

Cladistic analysis compares the shared and shared derived characteristics of organisms which are thought to be of same ancestral origin.

Explanation:

  • The branch of sytematics concerned with inferring phylogeny is termed as cladistics.
  • It determines the branching pattern of evolution.
  • It decribes the sequence of branching of ancestral lines.
  • The basic idea behind cladistics is that the members of a group share common evolutionary history, and are closely related, more so to members of the same group than to other organisms.

What is the chemistry of life?
omeli [17]

Explanation:

The chemistry of life begins with the basic principles of bond formation and bond breaking, and the nature of the different compounds formed. Life revolves around the balancing act between the energy released as bonds are broken and the energy taken in as bonds are formed.
