[Chapter 3-4] A cross was carried out between the following two pureline parental strains:Parent 1: A/A; b/b; D/D; e/e; F/FParen

t 2: a/a; B/B; d/d; E/E; f/fAll genes are sorted independently except for E and F, which are tightly linked with no crossover between them. Following the selfing of the F1 from the cross between the two parental strains, what proportion of the F2 individuals will phenotypically resemble either one of the two parental lines? (1 pt

Answer:

Following the selfing of the F1 from the cross between the two parental strains, what proportion of the F2 individuals will phenotypically resemble either one of the two parental lines?

= 7.03% of F2 progeny will resemble parent 1

= 2.34% of F2 progeny will resemble parent 2.

Explanation:

Parent 1: AA; b/b; D/D; e/e; F/F

Parent 2: a/a; B/B; d/d; E/E; f/f

F1 Progeny: A/a; B/b; D/d; E/e; F/f

knowing that the F1 progeny is selfed, the possible gamete outcomes are:

ABDeF , ABDEf, ABdeF, ABdEf

AbDeF , AbDEf , AbdeF , AbdEf

aBDeF , aBDEf , aBdeF , aBdEf

abDeF , abDEf , abdeF , abdEf

All gametes are either eF or Ef (the two parental genotypes) and never EF or ef.

At the A, B and D loci, the F1 are heterozygotes. Therefore, in the F2 progeny, for each locus, 3/4 of the progeny will have the dominant trait while 1/4 will have the recessive phenotype. Further, 1/2 of all F2 progeny will have the haplotype eF and the other half will be Ef.

<u>Proportion of progeny resembling Parent 1: </u>

Parent 1 has the Phenoytpe AbDeF. As previously discussed, 3/4th of all F2 progeny has the phenotype A, 1/4th of F2 progeny has the phenotype b, 3/4th of F2 progeny has the phenotype D and 1/2 of F progeny has the phenotype eF.

Thus, the proportion of progeny resembling Parent 1

= 3/4 x 1/4 x 3/4 x 1/2 = 0.0703125

= 7.03% of F2 progeny will resemble parent 1.

<u>Proportion of progeny resembling Parent 2</u>:

Parent 2 has the Phenoytpe aBdEf. As previously discussed, 1/4th of all F2 progeny has the phenotype a, 3/4th of F2 progeny has the phenotype B, 1/4th of F2 progeny has the phenotype d and 1/2 of F progeny has the phenotype Ef.

Thus, Proportion of progeny resembling parent 2

= 1/4 x 3/4 x 1/4 x 1/2 = 0.0234375

= 2.34% of F2 progeny will resemble parent 2.

In your own words, explain what natural selection is?
Katyanochek1 [597]

Answer:

Natural selection is the process of which forms of life having traits that better enable them to adapt to specific environmental pressures, such as predators, changes in climate, or even competition for food or mates. As the species will tend to survive and reproduce in greater numbers than others of their kind, thus ensuring the perpetuation of those favorable traits in succeeding generations.

Which of the following is the largest particle in soil? A-clay B-sand C-silt D-humus
Akimi4 [234]

Well the soil classification is usually done on the basis of particle sizes and composition of soil.

<span>Clay </span>usually consists of particles less than 0.075 mm in size. It is a sticky soil and shows great changes in volume with variation in its water contact. It also shows considerable strength when air dried.

<span>Silt </span>has larger particles than clay and are mainly inorganic in nature. The particle size is less than 0.075mm and exhibits slightly plastic or non plastic behaviour.

Humus is soil consisting of dead and decaying organic matter. It is mainly organic in content but some inorganic particles may be mixed in it. The top soil in a tropical forest may be considered as humus.
