Answer:

The correct answer is c. 3/16.

Explanation:

In the given question two traits being studied, the traits are flower color and seed shape.

This is a typical Mendel’s dihybrid cross. According to the question purple colour (P) and round seed (R) are dominant traits.

When heterozygous purple-flowered (Pp), round-seeded (Rr) individuals are crossed, four different types of plants are produced phenotypically in the ratio 9:3:3:1.Out of 16 offspring, 9 are purple flowered, round seeded pea plants, 3 pea plants are white-flower with round seed, 3 are purple- flower with wrinkled seed and 1 pea plant is white-flowered with wrinkled seed pea plant is produced.

How do you think sub-atomic particles (protons, neutrons, and electrons) affect the atom and its behavior?
Blizzard [7]
Protons and Neutrons affect the mass. Protons and Electrons change the charge of the atom (positively or negatively charged). Valence electrons are the ones that do fun stuff in chemical reactions, they are responsible for making/breaking bonds, at least to my understanding.

Hope this helps.

The right answer is B and C.

For proposal C, I will give you an example, that of an autosomal recessive disease. If a parent is heterozygous for an allele causing an autosomal recessive disease (due to a mutation), it may be that it transmits the allele to its descendence, as it may not be able to transmit it (since in one heterozygous subject, not all of its gametes carry the mutated allele) and thus the mutation will no longer be copied through the generaitons.

Each individual is genetically unique. Its genes are distributed along chromosomes contained in the nucleus. Mutations can lead to the appearance of different versions of genes: alleles. A diploid individual has two copies of each gene, which may be identical or different alleles. Mixing during sexual reproduction partly explains the genetic diversity of individuals.
