In peas, the allele for yellow seeds (Y) is dominant to the allele for green seeds (y). What would be the genotype and phenotype

ratios of offspring from a cross between Yy (heterozygous) and yy (homozygous recessive) individuals?
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
d. Genotype: all yy; Phenotype: all green

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.

What kind of mutation would occur if a sequence of DNA is changed from ATCGGCTTAACG to ATCGGCTAAACG?
Zinaida [17]

Answer:

Base substitution mutation

Explanation:

Mutation is the alteration or change that occurs to the sequence of a gene caused by a mutagen (chemicals) or spontaneously-induced. Depending on how the mutation occurs, it is of different types. The mutation shown in this question is as follows:

ATCGGCTTAACG to ATCGGCTAAACG

This type of mutation is called SUBSTITUTION MUTATION. Substitution mutation is a type of mutation that involves the replacement of one or more nucleotide base by another. In this original sequence; ATCGGCTTAACG, the eight base T was replaced by base A in the sequence, hence, it is a substitution mutation.

Which statements describe the genetic code? Check all that apply. A. It is a protein.B. It is a nucleic acid. C.It is found in D
Marina86 [1]

Answer:

B. It is a nucleic acid

F. It allows parents and their young to have similar characteristics.

Explanation:

The genetic material refers to the molecule which acts as the coding material of the organism as it contains the code of protein and thus controls the basic function of the life.

The genetic material of the organism belongs to a class of molecule called nucleic acid as they are found in the nucleus of the cell. There are two types of nucleic acids called DNA and RNA.

The genetic material gets passed from the parents to the offspring through reproduction therefore the offsprings develop the same character as of their parents.

Thus, the selected options are correct.
