Answer:

C. Fi 1:0, F2 3:1

Explanation:

Firstly, Mendel's law of segregation states that the alleles of a gene will randomly separate into gametes during gamete formation. In this case involving a single trait, hence, a single gene. Mendel crossed two purebreeding plants i.e. homozygous plants that produced different phenotypes for the same gene. He obtained his offsprings which he called F1 offsprings. He realized that all the F1 offsprings expressed only one phenotype. For example, when he crossed homozygous tall (TT) and short (tt) plants, he got F1 offsprings that were all tall.

He then self-crossed these F1 offsprings to produce a F2 offsprings that had a phenotypic ratio of 3:1 i.e. 3tall, 1short plant. He concluded that the alleles of the single gene had segregated into the gametes but one allele was capable of masking the expression of another, as seen in the heterozygous F1 offsprings that were all tall (Tt).

Hence, he obtained a 1:O ratio for his F1 offsprings then a 3:1 ratio for his F2 offsprings.

For which of the following processes can dideoxyribonucleotides be used?
mel-nik [20]

Answer:

Sequence a DNA fragment.

Explanation:

Dideoxyribonucleotides may be defined as the DNA molecule that lacks hydroxyl group at 2 and 3 position of the pentose sugar. These molecule are important in the molecular biology.

The sequencing of a DNA fragment means to determine the sequence of the nucleotides in a DNA molecule. The  dideoxyribonucleotides is used to tag the target DNA fragment and known the sequence of the target DNA molecule.

Thus, the correct answer is option (C).

Pick out the characteristics that make the pulmonary alveoli a place for gaseous exchange​
Vladimir79 [104]

Answer:

Moist walls - gases dissolve in the moisture helping them to pass across the gas exchange surface. Permeable walls - allow gases to pass through. Extensive blood supply - ensuring oxygen rich blood is taken away from the lungs and carbon dioxide rich blood is taken to the lungs.

abruzzese [7]

Answer:

Parasitism describes a relationship between two organisms where one gets benefit and other get harm.

Explanation:

Parasitism is a type of symbiotic association that is present between two different organisms. In association, one organism gets benefit from the other and the other is damaged. For example, association between mosquitoes and human is parasitism because mosquitoes get benefit in the form of food while human is damaged due to disease cause by mosquito biting.
