The fraction of offspring with black coat color and straight fur is 9/16.

Explanation:

Information given:

black coat colour and straight fur - dominant genotype BBCC, BbCc

yellow coat colour and curly fur - recessive genotype bbcc

Both the traits are independently assorted. The fur colour and fur type is not present on the same chromosome and are not sex linked.

The genotype of the parents are:

BbCc X BbCc

Punnet square shows:

BC Bc bC bc

BC BBCC BBCc BbCC BbCc

Bc BBCc BBcc BbCc Bbcc

bC BbCC BbCc bbCC bbCc

bc BbCc Bbcc bbCc bbcc

9 BLACK STRAIGHT

3 BLACK CURLY

3 YELLOW STRAIGHT

1 YELLOW CURLY

9/16 is the fraction of progeny to be black coat colour and straight fur.

What is the most appropriate method to prepare a sample of cheek cells for PCR?

Dmitry [639]

Answer:

Extraction of genomic DNA

Explanation:

Resuspend the cells(any number), smaller numbers also work, in 10-20 ul of TE buffer or milli Q water. boil for 5-10 min in a waterbath, quick chill, short spin. use the supernatant as a template for PCR.

If cells are very less, u can directly add cells to the PCR reaction without enzyme,boil for 5-10 min in a waterbath, let it cool slowly, short spin. Add enzyme to the supernatant and start the reaction at extension step followed by normal PCR reaction steps.

Theodor W. Engelmann illuminated a filament of algae with light that passed through a prism, thus exposing different segments of

WARRIOR [948]

Answer:

The correct answer is C and Engelmann conducted this experiment to prove relationship between algae and the rate of photosynthesis.

Explanation: First we must talk about 3 facts:

1) Prism scatters the white light into different wavelengths.

2) Photosynthesis, 6 carbon dioxide and 6 water molecules are consumed and 6 oxygen and 1 sugar molecule is synthesized using light energy.

6CO2 + 6H2O → C6H12O6 + 6O2

3) Aerobic bacteria breaks down sugar while using oxygen and produces water and carbon dioxide in simplified terms.

So with this experimental setup a researcher can understand the rate of the photosynthesis by increased accumulation of aerobic bacteria near algae in certain wavelengths since they uses oxygen and tend to move close to the oxygen source (<u>see figure</u>). In this experiment there are no ways to measure heat (B), there is no known relation between wavelength of light and aerobic respiration since it can happen even in the dark (A) and finally there are no ways to measure carbon dioxide (D).
