To assess Mendel's law of segregation using tomatoes, a true-breeding tall variety (SS) is crossed with a true-breeding short va

riety (ss). The heterozygous tall (Ss) were crossed to produce the two sets of F2 data as follows:
Set I Set II
30 tall 300 tall
5 short 50 short
1. Using chi-square analysis, analyze the results for both data sets. Calculate X^2 values, and estimate the p values in both cases.
2. From the analysis in part (a), what can you conclude about the importance of generating large data sets in experimental settings?

Answer:

1. The chi-square statistic is 0. The p-value is 1. Not significant at p < .05.

The chi-square statistic with Yates correction is 0.0642. The p-value is .800028. Not significant at p < .05.

Explanation:

2. By generating large sets of data the ratio will remain same (F1 = 3:1, F2 = 9:3:3:1) according to the Chi-Square analysis. In actual reality, it fails to justify by giving a probability value of 1 that is impossible due to the exceptions of Co-Dominance and Incomplete Dominance...

What is genetic biodiversity?
Nady [450]

Answer:

So it would be the first one, The variation in biological factors affecting a species.

Explanation:

Genetic diversity is the total number of genetic characteristics in the genetic makeup of a species, it ranges widely from the number of species to differences within species and can be attributed to the span of survival for a species.

All forms of life on earth, whether microbes, plants, animals, or human beings, contain genes. Genetic diversity is the sum of genetic information contained in the genes of individual plants, animals, and micro-organisms. Each species is the storehouse of an immense amount of genetic information in the form of traits, characteristics, etc. The number of genes ranges from about 1000 in bacteria to more than 400 000 in many flowering plants. Each species consists of many organisms and virtually no two members of the same species are genetically identical.

An important conservation consequence of this is that even if an endangered species is saved from extinction it has probably lost some of its internal diversity. Consequently, when populations expand again, they become more genetically uniform than their ancestors. There are mathematical formulas to express a genetically effective population size that explain the genetic effects on populations that have gone through a bottleneck before expanding again such as the African cheetah or the North American bison. Subsequent inbreeding in small populations may result in:

a) reduced fertility and

b) increased susceptibility to disease.

Genetic differentiation within species occurs as a result of sexual reproduction, in which genetic differences between individuals are combined in their offspring to produce new combinations of genes or from mutations causing changes in the DNA. Genetic diversity is usually mentioned with reference to agriculture and maintaining food security. This is because genetic erosion of several crops has already occurred leading to the world's dependence for food on just a few species. Currently, a mere 100-odd species account for 90% of the supply of food crops, and three crops – rice, maize, and wheat – account for 69% of the calories and 56% of the proteins that people derive from plants.

Why would your body have trouble maintaining homeostasis if you are sick with a very high fever?
Anuta_ua [19.1K]
Although the evidence is only indirect, fever is believed to enhance the body's immune response. The increased temperature may actually impair the replication of infecting bacteria and viruses that are adapted to survive best at your normal homeostatic body temperature range. Hope this helps.

What are damages or changes to a dna sequence called.
AnnZ [28]

Answer:

A mutation is a change that occurs in our DNA sequence, either due to mistakes when the DNA is copied or as the result of environmental factors such as UV light and cigarette smoke.

Is the fungus more closely related to a plant or animal?<br><br> plant<br><br> animal
Hitman42 [59]

Answer:

animal is the correct answer.

Explanation:

The fungus is more closely related to animals than to plants because of the following reasons:

  • fungus are heterotrophs that mean they are not able to make their food like animals.
  • The fungus is closely related to animals that have signified defined by molecular phylogenetic analyses.
  • Fungi have chitin in their cell wall like animals.
