Snapdragon plants have a gene that determines the presence of chlorophyll. The dominant allele (C) causes the plant to make chlo

rophyll, while the recessive allele (c) makes none. Snapdragons that are homozygous dominiant (CC) are green, whereas those that are heterozygous (Cc or cC) are yellow. The homozygous recessive plants die almost immediately due to lack of chlorophyll. If a healthy adult snapdragon is chosen at random from a large population of offspring of a heterozygous cross, about 1/3 will have zero copies of the recessive, and 2/3 will have one copy. Let X be a RV that represents the number of copies of the recessive allele. Eight healthy Snapdragon plants were chosen at random from a large population of offspring of a heterozygous cross.

Answer: i)For X = (0,1) then P(x) = (1/3, 2/3)

              ii) Then p=(2/3) as n=8

              iii) 0.06828

Step-by-step explanation:

Use binomial distribution:

Probability of being yellow (by having 1 recessive allele) is 2/3. This is a binomial distribution with p=2/3. And since there are 8 selections, our n is 8. So p=(2/3), n=8.

Recall that in binomial distribution P(X=x) = C(n,x) × p^x × (1-p)^n-x.

So for 3 out of 8, it means x=3 and n=8.  

Our equation becomes P(exactly three Snapdragon are yellow) = P(X=3) = (8C3) × (2/3)³ × (1/3)5 = 0.06828

It is 70cm long and has a circumference of 40cm what is the radius
Aleksandr [31]
The legnth is irrelivant

we know that
Circumference=2 times pi time radius

c=40
40=2 times pi times radius
divide both sides by 2
20=pi times radius
divide both sides b pi
20/pi=radius

the radius is 20/pi cm or aproximately 6.366199048 cm

Q # 4 anybody help me please
Marysya12 [62]

<u>Answer</u>

-5/3, -1,  0.7,  √2,   √5


<u>Explanation</u>

√5 = 2.236

-1 ⇒ this is less than 1.  

-5/3 = -1.666667    this is less than 1.  -5/3 < -1

0.7 > -1

√2 = 1.414        ⇒     √5 > √2

Arranging them from the least to the greatest;

-5/3, -1,  0.7,  √2,   √5
