Answer:

The fraction of the offspring that will show the phenotype produced by the recessive c allele is 1024/4096 = 0.25 A-BbccDdE-Ff = 25%

Explanation:

You can calculate the fraction of the offspring that will show the phenotype produced by the recessive c allele by making the punnet square for each gene and then multipling the phenotypic proportions, like this:

Cross) AAbbCcDDEeff     x      AaBBCcddEEFF

Cross For each gene by separately:

  • Parental )        AA    x    Aa

       Gametes)  A    A         A    a

        F1)             2/4 AA  

                          2/4 Aa

  • Parental )        bb    x    BB

         Gametes)  b    b         B   b

          F1)                   4/4 Bb

  • Parental )        Cc    x    Cc

        Gametes)  C    c         C    c

         F1)             1/4 CC

                           2/4 Cc

                            1/4 cc

  • Parental )        DD    x    dd

       Gametes)  D    D          d    d

        F1)             4/4 Dd

  • Parental )        Ee    x    EE

        Gametes)     E     e      E     E

         F1)             2/4 Ee

                           2/4 EE

  • Parental )        ff    x    FF

         Gametes)     f     f      F     F

          F1)             4/4 Ff

So, fraction of the offspring that will show the phenotype produced by the recessive c allele is:

4/4 A-  x  4/4 Bb   x   1/4 cc   x   4/4 Dd   x  4/4 E-   x   4/4 Ff =  

1024/4096 = 0.25 A-BbccDdE-Ff =25%

Answer:

The fraction of its offspring will show the phenotype produced by the c allele is 1/4

Explanation:

Although there are six genes shown in the question, only one of them, the "C" gene is our concern.

Because different genes assort independently, we can ignore all the others and just think about this one gene. Then, our cross is really just Cc × Cc. From there, it should be easy to figure out that ¾ of the offspring will be either CC or Cc and show the dominant "C" phenotype, while ¼ will be cc and show the recessive "c" phenotype.

Why can carbon form very large molecules?
malfutka [58]

Answer;

(c) It can bond with other carbon atoms that are bonded to other molecules

Explaation;

-Carbon is the only element that can form so many different compounds because each carbon atom can form four chemical bonds to other atoms, and because the carbon atom is just the right, small size to fit in comfortably as parts of very large molecules.

-Carbon chains can bond with carbon rings to form very large, complex molecules. These large molecules can be made of many small molecules that are bonded together.

5. If you were given an unfamiliar vegetable, how could you tell if it was a root or a stem, based on its external features and
ValentinkaMS [17]

Answer:

In roots, the vascular tissues, i.e., xylem and phloem, are found in the central vascular cylinder, while in stems these tissues are dispersed throughout the stem, generally arranged as a ring towards the outside of the stem (epidermis)

Explanation:

Vascular plants have two different transport tissues: xylem and phloem. The xylem transports water from roots to stems and leaves, while the phloem transports food (i.e. dissolved sugars) from the leaves to all parts of the plant. In roots, vascular tissues form a central core in order to withstand stretching forces. Moreover, in stems, vascular tissues are dispersed (generally concentrated towards the epidermis), in an arrangement that enables them to resist compression and bending forces.
