What is the phenotype of a plant with the genotype RR

To give a direct answer, I’d have to know what gene we were looking at. However, in a general sense, when a genotype has two capital letters, it means that it’s homozygous dominant. Take for example:

R= tall stalk
r= short stalk

The uppercase R is a dominant allele, which means if the plant has the gene with this in it (RR or Rr) then it will have that trait. If it has two lowercase letters (rr) then it will be the recessive trait.

Using this example, RR would be the tall stalk. For whatever your question is, the dominant phenotype would be the answer.

Starting with the pea plants, let's say that the red flower-color allele is dominant and is denoted as R, and that the white flower-color allele is recessive and is denoted as r. You have one parent with genotype RR and the red phenotype. The other parent has genotype Rr, and the red phenotype.

In order to keep DNA organized it wraps around proteins called histones to form? NucleotideChromosomesBase pairGenes

frutty [35]

Although the DNA packaging with histones proteins is mean to form nucleosomes (groups of 8 histones proteins), the higher structures why the genetic material is packaged with those molecules is to form chromosomes, as you said.

Develop two criteria that would identify the three muscle tissues in two steps when viewed under a microscope

adelina 88 [10]

Two criteria that would identify the three muscle tissues are myofibers and nuclei.

There are three types of muscles:

1. Skeletal-Contains many nuclei along the length of the muscle cell. The nuclei are displaced peripherally. The skeletal fibers are arranged parallel. The myofibril is composed of bands.

2. Smooth-This tissue contain spindle-shaped cells with a single central nucleus. Smooth muscle fibers are shorter than skeletal.

3. Cardiac-The fibers of cardiac muscle are not simply parallel. Cardiac muscle fibers are long cylindrical cells with one or two nuclei.
