The allele for having freckles (F) is dominant over the allele for not having freckles (f). Some characteristics in people are i

nherited as simple dominant and recessive traits. One example is freckles. Freckles is a dominant trait, and the lack of freckles is a recessive trait. In this example, a person with freckles is represented as either FF or Ff, and a person with no freckles is represented as ff. Total score: ____ of 20 points (Score for Question 1: ___ of 2 points) 1. Imagine a mother and a father who both have freckles and are heterozygous for the trait, or Ff. They are the P generation, or parent generation. Create a Punnett square to show their offspring, the F1 generation. Answer: Type your answer here. Part 1 Punnett Square (Score for Question 2: ___ of 2 points) 2. Calculate the ratios of the genotypes and phenotypes of the offspring in the F1 generation. Answer: Type your answer here.

Question no 1:

As mentioned in the question that parents are heterozygous for freckles (Ff).

Please see the punnet square in attached picture.

Question no 2:

As we can see in figure offspring will be as:

P1:                      Ff X Ff

F1:                  FF:  Ff : Ff : ff

Phenotypic ratio:          3: 1

Genotypic ratio:           1: 2: 1

This is because freckles is a dominant trait and even one allele of dominant treat is enough to cause freckles to the offspring. However genotypically there is a difference between FF and Ff because the Ff will have lower chances to inherit the trait to offspring and FF will have more chances to transfer the trait to next offspring.

Hope it helps!

Answer:

First thing you need to do is get the alleles of the mother and father. They are heterozygous dominant for freckles, their genotypes are Ff. Your Punnett would look like this:

P generation cross: Ff x Ff

      F       f

F   FF     Ff

f    Ff      ff

Looking at the Punnett, just list all the possible genotype combinations, then count how many you see in the Punnett. But when you tlak about phenotype, you will be looking at what was expressed. Since Freckles are dominant, when there is at least 1 dominant allele in the combination, the dominant trait will be expressed.

Genotype       Number         Phenotype

    FF                    1                  Freckles

    Ff                    2                  Freckles

    ff                     1                  No Freckles

You can see that FF and Ff will both express freckles, so you add up their ratio.

Based on this:

genotype ratio would be 1 FF: 2 Ff: 1 ff or 1:2:1

phenotype ration would be: 3 Freckles: 1 No freckles or 3:1

In experiment 2, explain why the number of action potentials generated varied with increased stimulation frequency.
kifflom [539]
<span>When there is more stimulation, there will be more polarization and depolarization occurring within the cells as they get generated. When the sodium channels are open from the electrical stimuli, it will open up channels that lead to influx of sodium for outside the cells, thereby gains more positivity. Then there is potassium channels that is negatively charged. So the potassium will force the closure of channels.</span>

pantera1 [17]

Answer;

-Thoracic

Thoracic because of the rib facet on the body and elongated spinous process

Explanation;

-Thoracic Vertebrae  functions  to hold the rib cage and protect the heart and lungs. The twelve thoracic vertebrae are numbered T1 to T12. The range of motion in the thoracic spine is limited.

-Distinguishing features of the thoracic vertebrae include; the presence of facets on the sides of the bodies for articulation with the heads of the ribs, and facets on the transverse processes of all, except the 11th and 12th vertebrae, for articulation with the tubercles of the ribs.

If your blood becomes too concentrated with Iona, what will happen to the red blood cells
Nutka1998 [239]

Answer:

If the fluid is very concentrated, the cell will lose a lot of water, causing the red blood cell to shrink and die. On the opposite side of things, if the body fluids are too dilute (hypotonic), water will diffuse into the red blood cells (because the inside is more concentrated than the body fluid), causing the cells to burst open.
