[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.

Punnett squares use mathematical probability to help predict the genotype and phenotype combinations in genetic crosses. Select
castortr0y [4]

Answer:

A. All possible combinations of alleles in the gametes produced by one parent are written along the top edge of the square

Explanation:

You begin with a square. Then, following the principle of segregation, all possible combinations of alleles in the gametes produced by one parent are written along the top edge of the square. The other parent's alleles are then segregated along the left edge. Next, every possible genotype is written into the boxes within the square, just as they might appear in the F2 generation.

Explain evaporation in 3 to 5 sentences
alukav5142 [94]
Evaporation is a type of vaporization that occurs on the surface of a liquid as it changes into the gas phase. The surrounding gas must not be saturated with the evaporating substance. When the molecules of the liquid collide, they transfer energy to each other based on how they collide with each other
