Answer:
a) The expected phenotype of the F1 plants is 100% RrBb, red kernels.
b) The expected phenotypic classes in the F2 are: 9:3:3:1
9/16 R-B-, 3/16 rrB-, 3/16 R-bb, 1/16 rrbb
Proportions 9:6:1.
9/16 Red kernel (R-B-), 6/16 Brown kernel (rrB- + R-bb), 1/16 White kernel (rrbb)
Explanation:
<u>Available data:</u>
- brown kernel: R-bb or rrB-
1º Cross) RRBB x rrbb
F1) 100% RrBb (red kernels)
2ºCross) RrBb x RrBb
Gametes) RB RB

rb RrBb Rrbb rrBb rrbb
F2) Phenotypic classes:
<em>9/16 R-B-</em>
<em> 3/16 rrB-</em>
<em> 3/16 R-bb</em>
<em> 1/16 rrbb</em>
Phenotypic proportions:
<em>9/16 Red kernel (R-B-)</em>
<em> 6/16 Brown kernel (rrB- + R-bb)</em>
<em> 1/16 White kernel (rrbb) </em>
It is a fight or flight mechanism for survival and a very unique skill lizards acquired
Precipitation or the water cycle
Phosphorus cycles between living things and the SOIL... Soil is the correct answer
