Ksivusya [100]3 years ago
6 0

The Type O blood group is commonly called as universal donor because any blood group can receive the O blood group. The blood group O has no antigen. Due to the absence of antigen it doesn't agglutinate when come in contact with other blood groups in the plasma.

The agglutination reaction happens when opposite antigen and antibody reacts with each other. e.g.- Blood group A contains antigen A and antibody b and the blood group B contains antigen B and antibody a. Agglutination reaction occurs when the antigen A reacts with antibody a. As O blood group has no antigen, agglutination reaction doesn't occur.

Alchen [17]

Answer:

A. Mendel observed green and yellow pea pods in a 3:1 ratio because the F1 generation was heterozygous.

Explanation:

The two true breeding plants in the parental population were homozygous (that is what true breeding means). Therefore, their cross would lead to all heterozygous offspring (see attached punnet square). Green is the dominant characteristic, so all F1 plants had a green phenotype, but Gg genotype.

The F1 cross would therefore be Gg x Gg. See attached punnet square.

The genotypes in the F2 generation are 1 GG: 2 Gg: 1 gg 1

Therefore, the phenotypic ratio is 3 green pea pods (Gg or GG): 1 yellow (gg)
