Lactose is a carbohydrate that is formed by combining galactose and glucose.

Disaccharide is the term that best describes this molecule.

Disaccharide is the term used to signify substances that are made up of two simple sugar molecules. These molecules are connected to each other. Single sugars are also termed as monosaccharides. Disaccharides are substances that can easily dissolve in water. Sucrose, lactose, and maltose are the three main disaccharides.

A vegan diet usually has adequate amounts of which nutrient?

Lorico [155]

A varied vegan diet usually has sufficient protein for human requirements. Vegan foods that are high in protein include beans, lentils, soy products, nuts, seeds, grains and grain products. However, there are some nutrients that may be deficient in a vegan diet, such as vit B12, omega 3 fatty acids, calcium, iodine and iron. Surprisingly, a 'vegan' diet is not necessarily healthy, and many vegans actually have a very bad diet, particularly those living in cities where being vegan is a health fad, and where many vegans consume fast food vegan options.

Answer:

The offsprings of this punnet square will be Dd, Dd, dd and dd in a ratio 1Dd : 1dd

See attached image for punnet square completion

Explanation:

This question involves a cross involving a single gene with alleles D and d where allele D is dominant over allele d i.e. D will mask the phenotypic expression of d in a heterozygous state.

This cross is between a heterozygous parent (Dd) and a homozygous recessive parent (dd). Parent Dd will produce gametes D and d while parent dd will produce gametes d and d.

Using these gametes in a punnet square, four possible offsprings with two distinct genotypes will be produced. The genotypes are: Dd and dd in a ratio 1:1

Hence, the possibility of having a heterozygous dominant offspring is 1/2 while the possibility of having a homozygous recessive offspring is also 1/2.
