Two independently segregating genes determine kernel color in wheat. Red color results from at least one dominant allele in both

genes. Kernels on rrbb plants are white, and the lack of a dominant allele in either the R locus or the B locus (but not both) results in brown kernel color. If you mate a plant that is true-breeding for red color kernels with a plant that is true-breeding for white color kernels:a.What is the expected phenotype of the F1 plants?b. What are the expected phenotypic classes in the F2 progeny and their relative proportions?

Answer:

a) The expected phenotype of the F1 plants is 100% RrBb, red kernels.

b) The expected phenotypic classes in the F2 are: 9:3:3:1

   9/16 R-B-, 3/16 rrB-, 3/16 R-bb,  1/16 rrbb

   Proportions 9:6:1.

9/16 Red kernel (R-B-), 6/16 Brown kernel (rrB- + R-bb), 1/16 White kernel (rrbb)    

Explanation:

<u>Available data:</u>

  • red kernel: R-B-
  • brown kernel: R-bb or rrB-
  • white kernel: rrbb

F2)  Phenotypic classes:

       <em>9/16 R-B-</em>

<em>        3/16 rrB-</em>

<em>        3/16 R-bb</em>

<em>        1/16 rrbb</em>

      Phenotypic proportions:

      <em>9/16 Red kernel (R-B-)</em>

<em>       6/16 Brown kernel (rrB- + R-bb)</em>

<em>       1/16 White kernel (rrbb)         </em>

According to the context, fungi is an organism that digests its food externally before absorbing it and it cannot move.

<h3>What are fungi?</h3>

They are living beings belonging to the fungi kingdom: molds, yeasts and mushrooms.

These lack mobility and senses, like plants, and they consume available organic matter (heterotrophic nutrition).

Therefore, we can conclude that according to the context, fungi is an organism that digests its food externally before absorbing it and it cannot move.

The flooding of half part of the forest have successful separate the population of frogs in that ecosystem into two different set of frogs. This is an example of allopatric speciation, that is, the population become separated as a result of geographical barrier. This separation will make the two set of frog population to become new species. On the long run, the two species may become unable to relate sexually.
