Answer:

17

Explanation:

In corn,

Smooth kernel (S) is dominant to rough kernel (s)

Purple kernel (P) is dominant to yellow kernel (p)

Since no information has been given about the cross here let us assume it to be a standard dihybrid cross.

The phenotypic ratio of dihybrid cross is 9:3:3:1. 9/16 will show dominant phenotype for both traits, 3/16 will show dominant phenotype for one trait, other 3/16 will show dominant phenotype for the second trait, 1/16 will have recessive phenotype for both the traits.

Here,

Purple rough (P_ss) = 52

Yellow smooth (ppS_) = 50

Both of them show dominant phenotype for one trait so they each form 3/16 of the progeny.

If the total progeny was z, 3/16*z = 50

z = (50*16)/3 = 267

Total progeny = 267 kernels

Yellow rough kernels (ppss) = (1/16*267) = 17

So approximately 17 corn kernels will be yellow and rough.

Proteins are like carbohydrates and fats (lipids) in that they contain carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen. On the other hand, proteins
Ann [662]

Answer:

Proteins are like carbohydrates and fats (lipids) because they contain carbon, hydrogen and oxygen. On the other hand, proteins also contain _nitrogen__________ while carbohydrates and fats do not.

Explanation:

Proteins are formed by units: amino acids. These are organic molecules that contain carboxyl (COOH) and amino (NH2) groups. These groups bind to the carbon called alpha (α), which also binds to a side chain (R chain) and a hydrogen atom (H). There are 20 types of amino acids.

All chordates have _____ (at some point in their life cycle). feathers diaphragm fins pharyngeal pouches
IceJOKER [234]
<span>The correct answer is pharyngeal pouches.</span>

   <span>All chordates for at least some period of their life have pharyngeal pouches (pharyngeal slits). Those are the openings in the pharynx with the function in the filter-feeding. Pharyngeal slits are present during the embryonic stages of tetrapod development. They <span>develop into gill arches  (bony fish) and into the jaw and inner ear (terrestrial animals).</span></span>
