a. Genotype: ½ Yy : ½ yy; Phenotype: ½ yellow : ½ green
b. Genotype: all Yy; Phenotype: all yellow
c. Genotype: ½ Yy : ½ yy; Phenotype: all yellow

Answer: A. Genotype: 1/2 Yy; 1/2 yy. Phenotype: 1/2 Yellow; 1/2 Green.

Explanation: The answer lies in Punnett´s Square. A visual representation of Mendelian inheritance. Dominant genes always express when an organism presents them. Recessive genes express when both alleles contain the recessive gene. A heterozygote contains different alleles for the same gene (Yy). A homozygote contains the same alleles for the same gene (YY/yy), which can be a Dominant (YY) or Recessive (yy) Homozygote.

Which process is most likely responsible for the failure of a gamete to receive a copy of a particular chromosome?
valentina_108 [34]

Nondisjunction is most likely responsible for the failure of a gamete to receive a copy of a particular chromosome.

What is non-disjunction?

When a pair of homologous chromosomes fails to segregate or separate at anaphase, both of the pair's chromosomes pass to the same daughter cell. This most likely happens during meiosis, but it can also happen during mitosis to create a mosaic individual. These are some potential causes of nondisjunction, while the exact cause or causes are unknown. Growing maternal age is linked to trisomy 21 and trisomy 18 fetuses and newborns, indicating that the mother's age may be a significant etiological component. Chromosomal structural defects such translocations and pericentric inversions might hinder chromosome pairing during meiosis and encourage nondisjunction.

They then examined the infected cells and found that they contained labeled DNA, Since the phage DNA entered the infected cell, which demonstrated that it makes sense that DNA is the phage's genetic material. A bacteriophage or a phage is a virus that infects and replicates within Bacteria and Archaea. Phages replicate within the bacterium following the injection of their genome into its cytoplasm.
