in pea plants t is the allele for tall plants while t is the allele for dwarf plants. If you have a tall plant, demonstrate with

Answer:

The tall plant is homozygous (TT) if all the progeny of the test cross is "tall". Presence of both tall and short progeny makes the "tall" plant heterozygous (Tt).

Explanation:

The "tall" plant with unknown genotype would be crossed with a homozygous short plant (tt) of the same species. This is called the testcross. If the progeny of test cross includes both tall and short plants, the "tall" plant with unknown genotype was heterozygous for the gene. On the other hand, the presence of only tall progeny in the testcross reflects the fact that the "tall" plant with unknown genotype was homozygous for the allele for "tallness".

During sexual reproduction, two gametes merge to create a zygote that is a genetic mix of its two parents. For each statement, i
Elenna [48]

Answer:

1. 50% of the genome comes from each parent because it is crucial otherwise if the ratio changes, the zygote may not form and if formed the fetus may have some other kind of chromosome number related syndromes etc.

2.  Sexual reproduction produces greater genetic variability than asexual methods. This is because of the process of crossing over during meiosis that exchange the segments of chromosome that is necessary for producing mutations and genetic variability.

3. 50% of chromosomes match with each parent because both of the parents contributed 23 chromosomes and exactly 50% of their genome.

4. The gametes must be produced by two different individuals cause that is the main purpose of sexual reproduction and give better survival like this to the forming next generation. Not to mention produces greater genetic variability among species.

5. Plants always produces both eggs because they are hermaphroditic in nature.
