Answer:

(a) AABBCC × aabbcc->AaBbCc     → 1

(b) AABbCc × AaBbCc->AAbbCC   → 1/32

(c) AaBbCc × AaBbCc->AaBbCc     → 1/8

(d) aaBbCC × AABbcc->AaBbCc    → 1/2

Explanation:

In such cases we calculate the probability of each allelic pair separately.

(a) AABBCC × aabbcc -> AaBbCc  

Aa  Aa   Aa  Aa           Bb  Bb  Bb  Bb         Cc  Cc  Cc  Cc

↓                                   ↓                                ↓  

4/4 = 1                          4/4 = 1                       4/4 = 1    

In case of gene A, out of the 4 probable allelic combinations, 4 will be Aa so the probability is 4/4 = 1.

In case of gene B, out of the 4 probable allelic combinations, 4 will be Bb so the probability is 4/4 = 1.

In case of gene C, out of the 4 probable allelic combinations, 4 will be Cc so the probability is 4/4 = 1.

So, the total probability of getting AaBbCc   = 1 x 1 x 1 = 1.                

(b) AABbCc × AaBbCc -> AA bb CC

AA  AA   Aa  Aa           BB  Bb  Bb  bb         CC  Cc  Cc  cc

↓                                                        ↓           ↓  

2/4                                                    1/4          1/4

In case of gene A, out of the 4 probable allelic combinations, 2 will be AA so the probability is 2/4.

In case of gene B, out of the 4 probable allelic combinations, 1 will be bb so the probability is 1/4.

In case of gene C, out of the 4 probable allelic combinations, 1 will be CC so the probability is 1/4.

So, the total probability of getting AA bb CC = 2/4 x 1/4 x 1/4 = 1/32.

(c) AaBbCc × AaBbCc -> AaBbCc

AA  Aa   Aa  aa           BB  Bb  Bb  bb         CC  Cc  Cc  cc

        ↓                                  ↓                               ↓  

       2/4                               2/4                           2/4

In case of gene A, out of the 4 probable allelic combinations, 2 will be Aa so the probability is 2/4.

In case of gene B, out of the 4 probable allelic combinations, 2 will be Bb so the probability is 2/4.

In case of gene C, out of the 4 probable allelic combinations, 2 will be Cc so the probability is 2/4.

So, the total probability of getting AaBbCc = 2/4 x 2/4 x 2/4 = 1/8.

(d) aaBbCC × AABbcc->AaBbCc

Aa  Aa   Aa  Aa               BB  Bb  Bb  bb          Cc  Cc  Cc  Cc

      ↓                                        ↓                                ↓  

4/4 = 1                                       2/4                          4/4 = 1    

In case of gene A, out of the 4 probable allelic combinations, 4 will be Aa so the probability is 4/4 = 1.

In case of gene B, out of the 4 probable allelic combinations, 2 will be Bb so the probability is 2/4.

In case of gene C, out of the 4 probable allelic combinations, 4 will be Cc so the probability is 4/4 = 1.

So, the total probability of getting AaBbCc = 1 x 2/4 x 1 = 1/2.

Caffeine aids in the movement of calcium ions across cell membranes by both making it easier for the Ca2+ channels to open and b
Llana [10]

Caffeine cause dose dependent prominent increase in force of contraction and period of contraction of muscle

<u>Explanation:</u>

Caffeine is widely used in foods and drinks. Its long time use can effect central nervous system include lethargy memory, sleep disorder and anxiety.

Increase in concentration of calcium ion will result increase number of power stroke and force for contraction.  However latent period and relaxation period are unaffected by caffeine. Increase in concentration of calcium ion will result increase number of power stroke and force for contraction.

Because of calcium ion release in skeletal muscle, caffeine causes peripheral manifestation such as hyper-reflexia, muscle twitching etc.

High amount of caffeine leads to increase in release of Ca2+ from sarcoplasmic reticulum. It increases tension development in single tetanic contraction and re-initiate maximum tension in fatigue single myofibre by restoring Ca2+ release from sarcoplasmic reticulum to non-fatigued levels.

A protein is a polymer of amino acids. When amino acids are joined by dehydration synthesis (a process that removes water to form a chemical bond), they form peptide bonds. <span>There are three main components of an amino acid, the amino group, the side chain, and the carboxylic acid group.  </span>
