50 percent of the offspring would be expected to have the ability to roll their tongues If a heterozygous male is crossed with a homozygous recessive female.

Explanation:

Information given:

the ability to roll tongue is dominant, the genotype would be RR, Rr

the inability to roll tongue is recessive trait the genotype = rr

Given that heterozygous male is crossed with homozygous recessive female, the genotype is

Rr X rr

Punnet square shows that:

    R    r

r   Rr  rr

r  Rr  rr    The genotype ratio is 1:1

                 phenotype ratio is 1:1

There are chances of 50 % offspring having the ability to roll their tongues as they are heterozygous and have the dominant allele for rolling of tongues.

How do cells release <br> Energy in the process of cellular respiration
White raven [17]

Answer:

Explanation:

There are two types of respiration:

1. Aerobic respiration  

2. Anaerobic respiration

Aerobic respiration

It is the breakdown of glucose molecule in the presence of oxygen to yield large amount of energy. Water and carbon dioxide are also produced as a byproduct.

Glucose + oxygen → carbon dioxide + water + 38ATP

Anaerobic Respiration

It is the breakdown of glucose molecule in the absence of oxygen and produce small amount of energy. Alcohol or lactic acid and carbon dioxide are also produced as byproducts.  

Glucose→ lactic acid/alcohol + 2ATP + carbon dioxide

This process use respiratory electron transport chain as electron acceptor instead of oxygen. It is mostly occur in prokaryotes. Its main advantage is that it produce energy (ATP) very quickly as compared to aerobic respiration

These bacteria change the nitrogen in the atmosphere into a form that we can use to make proteins
Dmitry_Shevchenko [17]

Answer:

Cyanobacteria, Anabaena and Azotobactor are called Nitrogen fixing bacteria. These bacteria change the nitrogen in the atmosphere into a form that is used by the plants to make proteins. Plants take nitrogen in the form of nitrates. The atmospheric nitrogen is first converted into ammonia after that ammonia is converted into nitrates and this nitrates use by the plants to make proteins.
