Explanation:
When connected together by series of peptide bonds, amino acids form a polypeptide, another word for protein. The polypeptide will then fold into a specific conformation depending on other interactions (dashed lines) between its amino acid side chains.
mRNA or Messenger RNA
mRNA transcribes the genetic code from DNA into a form that can be read and used to make proteins. mRNA carries genetic information from the nucleus to the cytoplasm of a cell.<span>rRNA or Ribosomal RNA
rRNA is located in the cytoplasm of a cell, where ribosomes are found. rRNA directs the translation of mRNA into proteins.</span><span>tRNA or Transfer RNA
Like rRNA, tRNA is located in the cellular cytoplasm and is involved in protein synthesis. Transfer RNA brings or transfers amino acids to the ribosome that correspond to each three-nucleotide codon of rRNA. The amino acids then can be joined together and processed to make polypeptides and proteins</span>

The answers would be:
Genotype Phenotype
Tt Tall stemmed
tt Short stemmed
Genotypic ratio : 2:2 or 1:1
Phenotypic ratio: 2:2 or 1:1
<u />
<u>You can read on to see how this was done:</u>
Tall stems (T) are dominant to short stems (t).
First figure out the genotypes of the parents. We have a short-stemmed plant and a heterozygous long-stemmed plant cross.
For short stem to occur, you need 2 pairs of short alleles. So the first parent would have a genotype of tt.
Heterozygous long-stemmed means that the parent has one of each allele. So the genotype of the second parent would be, Tt.
Now we can make our Punnett Square.
tt x Tt
<u> t t </u>
<u>T | Tt | Tt</u>
<u>t | tt | tt</u>
Let's list down the genotypes and phenotypic results.
Genotype no. Phenotype
Tt 2 Tall stemmed
tt 2 Short stemmed
So from that we can answer the other questions:
Genotypic ratio : 2:2 or 1:1
Phenotypic ratio: 2:2 or 1:1
