In fruit flies, the gene for red eyes (R) is dominant and the gene for sepia eyes (r) is recessive. If a red-eyed heterozygous f

ly (Rr) mates with a sepia-eyed homozygous fly (rr), what are the possible genotypes of their offspring? (Hint: You many want to complete a Punnett square.)
Rr only

RR, Rr, and rr

Rr and rr

RR and Rr

The answer is Rr and rr.

We know:
r - recessive allele
R - dominant allele
RR - dominant homozygote with red eyes
Rr - heterozygote with red eyes (since one dominant allele R can mask recessive allele r)
rr - recessive homozygote with sepia eyes

Heterozygote Rr can give to the offspring either dominant allele R or recessive allele r. Recessive homozygote rr can give to the offspring only recessive allele r (take a look at the uploaded image of Punnett square).
After crossing the parents:
Parents:        Rr    x     rr
Offspring:  Rr    rr    Rr    rr

So:
2 out of 4 offspring will be with heterozygous with red eyes Rr: 2/4 = 0.5 = 50%
2 out of 4 offspring will be with homozygous with sepia eyes rr: 2/4 = 0.5 = 50%

The mean resting pulse rate for men is 72 beats per minute. a simple random sample of men who regularly work out at mitch's gym
tamaranim1 [39]

Claim: the mean resting pulse rate for men is less than 72 bpm.

Symbolic form would be: μ < 72

Step 1: null hypothesis  : μ > =  7 2 b p m

Step 2: alternative hypothesis:  μ <  7 2 b p m



Step 3: the test statistic is z = mean – μ / standard dev/sqrt (n) = -3/4 / 1.7639 = -1.92


Step 4: c v method: since z α = -1.645, the test static is z = -1.92 is less than the CV, we reject null hypothesis


            P Value method: area is 0.0274, since the p value is <= α, reject null hypothesis.

Step 5: the sample data support the claim that the mean resting pulse rate for men is less than 72 bpm.

What is the probability that the offspring will have purple flowers?; What is the phenotypic ratio for the purple flowers?; What
Luda [366]

The probability that the offspring will have purple flowers is 50% chance Let's go ahead and assume that:

The allele A corresponds to the color of flowers.

As a result, A would stand in for the alternate white hue and represent the dominating purple color.

According to the aforementioned hypotheses, a white flower would have the genotype aa while a heterozygous purple blossom would have the genotype Aa.

Now let's connect the two flowers:

Aa x aa

Aa Aa aa aa

The genotypes, phenotypes, and odds of the offspring would be as follows based on the cross's outcomes:

Purple color, Aa; 1/2

white flower color, aa, 1/2

In other words, there is a 50% chance that the cross will result in offspring with the flower colors purple (genotype, Aa) and white (genotype, aa).

Which hormone causes the re-growth of the endometrial lining of the uterus?

During the first days of menstruation, estrogen levels are low; In the middle of the follicular phase the follicle that is going to ovulate has already been selected, is when estrogen levels begin to rise. It is considered as an index of the fertile period of the menstrual cycle. Glandular proliferation occurs at the endometrial level (Proliferative phase).

Nuclear energy use can negatively impact water quality. Please select the best answer from the choices provided T F
MAXImum [283]

The statement is - True.

The production of the nuclear energy by the nuclear reactors requires lot of water. The water's role is to constantly keep cool the reactors because if they overheat there can be a disaster of big proportions.

Because of the heating up of the water the water changes its properties slightly. Those changes have big environmental impact, easily seen in the local flora and fauna in close proximity to the nuclear reactors. There is way to big of a percentage of bad mutations among the flora and fauna where the water is released from the nuclear reactors, where very often there's animals with either more or less extremities, two heads, weird growth and shape of the plants etc.
