On the planet Trogus, the population of Trogites have an autosomal gene, HDZ, with two alleles, T and t. T is dominant to t. Ind

ividuals with the T allele in their genotype show a propensity for sorbet, while the remainder prefer ice cream. In multiple population studies, 60% of individuals with the TT genotype prefer sorbet, 25% of Tt individuals prefer sorbet, and 5% of tt individuals prefer sorbet.
In an F1 cross of Tt x Tt genotyped individuals, in the F2population of individuals who prefer sorbet, what is the probability that a random individual has the Tt genotype?

A. 0.991.

B. 0.141.

C. 0.435.

D. 0.044.

E. 0.522.

Answer:

The correct option is C. 0.435

Explanation:

To get the results, let's make a punnet square and check the results. The parents in the cross will be heterozygous prefering sorbet. We can say that the alleles for sorbet are dominant over the alleles which prefer ice cream.

          T        t

T        TT       Tt

t         Tt        tt

The results show that there is 25% (0.25) probability that the individual will be homozygous preferring sorbet (TT). 25% (0.25) will have the probability of preferring ice- cream (tt).

50% (0.5) which is nearest to 0.435 will have the probability for having heterozygous alleles (Tt) and preferring sorbet,

Why are pressurized seeds and spores a beneficial adaptation for these plants and fungi?
tino4ka555 [31]
The pressurized seeds and spores have the ability to spread, helping the organism reproduce. In plants, it allows them to reduce competition by flinging the seeds far away so that their offspring don’t compete for resources. For the fungus, it allows the parent to fling the spores into the grass so that when the horse eats them, the life cycle of the fungus continues.
