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 the fourth century BC, Aristotle observed a phenomenon in which he saw a circular shadow on the Moon. He argued that Earth wa
xxTIMURxx [149]

Answer:

a lunar eclipse

Explanation:

The shadow that Aristotle saw was caused by a lunar eclipse. At that time the sun, earth, and the moon nearly straight alignment caused the Earth's shadow to be reflected on the moon. This shadow is what ultimately led Aristotle to believe that the Earth was a sphere. This should not be confused with a solar eclipse which is similar but instead the sun, moon, and earth align in that order which causes the moon to completely block the sun to anyone on earth.

Which of the following is an example of homeostasis? A. During a time of high stress, Justin's heart races, his muscles tense, a
pychu [463]

Answer:

C.

Explanation:

Homeostasis refers to the tendency for the human body to attempt to maintain a certain state even during changes in environment, activity, intake, etc. Options A, B, and D all refer to instances where the body departs from its usual state. While the scenario in Option C does describe a change in environment, it also describes the reaction of the body that brings its internal systems back to a certain state of fluid level.

When a rat's ventromedial nucleus is destroyed, the rat will:
ExtremeBDS [4]

The correct answer is C. It continues to eat the amount of food it does normally.


When rat's ventromedial nucleus is destroyed the rat will become more hyper physics and it continues to eat until it has doubled its normal weight.

Ventromedial nucleus of hypothalamus is termed as nucleus of hypothalamus.

It is a distinct morphological nucleus which involved in terminating hunger, fear, sexual activity and thermoregulation.

Ventromedial nucleus of hypothalamus is divided into subdivisions. For example, dorsomedial, ventrolateral, central and anterior. VMN is most commonly associated with satiety. In rats ventromedial nucleus is caused by over-eating and obesity.

andrezito [222]
The model attached represents facilitated transport, which is answer choice D. In the model, there are protein channels, which allow molecules to pass through them if they're too large to fit through the aquaporins (making diffusion an incorrect answer.) We can eliminate active transport since ATP isn't used to control transport, and we can eliminate endocytosis as it is a form of active transport. The remaining answer would be facilitated transport, which is a form of passive transport. Hope this helps! :)

The answer, I believe, would be C) A decrease in the wolf population - because the prey decreases, fewer wolves will be able to find food, which will lead to a decrease in their population.
