A mutation that causes a yellowing of leaves in snapdragon plants was discovered in the early 1900s. Plants with this condition,

termed aurea, have less chlorophyll than green plants.
Crosses between various combinations of green and aurea plants yielded the following results.

green x green = all green
aurea x aurea = 2/3 aurea, 1/3 green
green x aurea = 1/2 green, 1/2 aurea

With respect to snapdragon color, what can be said of the G and GAalleles?

a)The GA is dominant to the G allele

b)The G^A and G alleles exhibit codominance

c)The GA allele is recessive to the G allele

d)The GA and G alleles exhibit incomplete dominance

Looking at the second cross, a 2:1 phenotypic ratio (instead of the typical 3:1) usually indicate a lethal homozygous genotype. Based on the question, it’s sensible to assume that a snapdragon homozygous for the aureal allele, which should have a even lesser chlorophyll count than the heterozygote, can’t even make it to the birth of the plant, thus the GAGA type never existed in reality. Under this assumption, we can deduce that the 2/3 aurea is of genotype GAG and the 1/3 green offspring of genotype GG. If a punnet square was pulled including the lethal genotype, it will be easily seen that the aureal allele is the dominant type. The first cross of genotype GG x GG conform to this conclusion. And the third is therefore a test cross between the homozygous recessive GG and the heterozygous GAG (aurea), with the result abiding our theory. Correct me if I was wrong, the GA allele is termed dominant negative as a single copy of it results in a deficit in chlorophyll amount. But anyway, the explanation above should give you an answer to the relationship between the G and GA allele.

Which traits separate fungi from plants?
andrew-mc [135]

We now know that they have unique physical, chemical, and genetic traits that set them apart from plants and other eukaryotes. For example, the cell walls of fungi are made of chitin, not cellulose. Also, fungi absorb nutrients from other organisms, whereas plants make their own food.

Irina18 [472]

The Translation initiated is <u>Option D.All of the listed answers are correct. </u>

At the initiation of translation ribosomes and tRNA bind to the mRNA. tRNA is located at the first docking site of the ribosome. The anticodon of this tRNA is complementary to the start codon of the mRNA where translation begins. After binding to the mRNA, the ribosome initiates translation at the start codon AUG and moves the mRNA transcript one codon at a time until it reaches the stop codon.

When tRNA recognizes and binds to the corresponding codon in the ribosome, it transfers the corresponding amino acid to the end of the growing amino acid chain. tRNA and ribosomes then continue to decode the mRNA molecule until the entire sequence is translated into protein. tRNA acts as an adapter molecule during the translation process. Formerly known as soluble RNA or sRNA. As an adapter, it connects amino acids to nucleic acids.

Ludmilka [50]

Answer: Option E

Explanation:

During conducting the experiment, it was performed in control conditions. In this case the top predators were removed.

There were limited number of organism left at the place which compete with each other for the same resources.

Mussel and Barnacle were the two species left there which feed on the same resources for their needs. This is the reason there was loss of diversity.
