The inheritance of eye color in Drosophila is controlled by genes on each of the fly's four chromosome pairs. One eye-color gene

is on the fly's X chromosome, so the trait is inherited in a sex-linked manner. For this sex-linked trait, the wild-type (brick red) allele is dominant over the mutant vermilion (bright red) allele.
A homozygous wild-type female fly is mated with a vermilion male fly.

Predict the eye colors of F1 and F2 generations. (Assume that the F1 flies are allowed to interbreed to produce the F2 generation.)

all wild, all vermilion, 1/2 1/2, 3/4 1/4

F1 Females
F1 Males
F2 Females
F2 Males

Answer:

F1 Females  - all wild type

F1 Males  - all wild type

F2 Females  -  - all wild type

F2 Males - 1/2 wild type, 1/2 vermilion

Explanation:

The wild-type allele (Xᵛ⁺) is dominant over vermilion (Xᵛ), which is a sex-linked trait.

Female flies have two X chromosomes, male flies have one X and one Y chromosome.

A homozygous wild-type female fly (Xᵛ⁺Xᵛ⁺) is mated with a vermilion male fly (XᵛY).

The female parent can only produce Xᵛ⁺ gametes.

The male parent can produce either Xᵛ or Y gametes.

When gametes from both parents fuse, the F1 offspring will have the genotypes Xᵛ⁺Xᵛ (females with wild type eyes) and Xᵛ⁺Y (males with wild type eyes).

The F1 females can produce Xᵛ⁺ and Xᵛ gametes. The F1 males can produce Xᵛ⁺ and Y gametes.

When the F1 individuals interbreed, the gametes combine to give rise to the F2 offspring. The possible combination of gametes that will give the different genotypes and phenotypes in the F2 are:

  • Xᵛ⁺Xᵛ⁺ females with wild type eyes
  • Xᵛ⁺ Y males with wild type eyes
  • Xᵛ Xᵛ⁺ females with wild type eyes
  • Xᵛ Y males with vermilion eyes

Which is an example of genetic diversity within a rain forest?
SIZIF [17.4K]

Answer:

A all of the genes found within the ecosystem

Explanation:

Genetic diversity is the amount of variation in the genetic make up of individuals in a population. Genetic diversity is important for the fitness of a population, increased genetic variability allows populations to adapt to changes in the environment or resources. It is also important for continually producing healthy offspring, reducing the chance that recessive, deleterious alleles will be expressed.

Earth began as a mixture of about 90% stony, olivine-rich material and about 10% iron metal, just like the composition of chondr
jonny [76]

Answer: D. The olivine became the crust and the Iron melting defended the earth to become the core.

Explanation:

Earth was formed after it has went through a molten stage that led to the heavy materials sure as Iron metal moving inward to form the core, and the light materials moves toward the surface to form the crust.

The heat for the melting came from meteorite impacts which is usually very hot, the moon's impact, and the decay of radioactive elements.

Geological activity on the earth is driven from this initial source of heat at the earth's formation until now.
