In a given hybridization between two flowers, red "R" is dominant, and white "r" is recessive. In a cross between two white-flow

ered plants, what statement would BEST describe the offspring? A) 75% of the flowers would be white and the remaining 25% would be red. B) There would be some variation; most flowers would be white and a few would be red. C) There would be no variation in color. All flowers will be white unless a mutation occurred. D) Flower color variation would be equally divided given the homozygous parents: half red and half white.

C, since rr and rr together cannot make Rr or RR.

Answer:

C) There would be no variation in color. All flowers will be white unless a mutation occurred.

Explanation:

A recessive phenotype is generated in an offspring when the offspring receives <u>both the recessive alleles</u> for a trait from each of its parent. So if a progeny has white phenotype then it simply means that it does not have any dominant allele because dominant allele masks the expression of recessive allele and produces a dominant phenotype. Here, red "R" is dominant while  white "r" is recessive.

The Punnett square diagram for a cross between two white-flowered plants is attached.

It is clear from the diagram that all the progeny will have recessive "rr" genotype so all of them will have white flowers.

But, in case a mutation occurs in those plants which changes the recessive allele (r) to dominant (R) or any other variant allele then only some variations in flower color  may occur.

What do the human body cell do with the carbon dioxide
Ber [7]

Answer: When the oxygen-rich blood gets to the cells, the cells receive the oxygen and release the carbon dioxide. The blood with less oxygen and a lot of carbon dioxide returns to the heart. Then the heart returns this blood to the lungs where carbon dioxide is released and oxygen is received.

Imagine that you are outside on a cold day and have removed your gloves to answer your phone. Which statement is true regarding
Klio2033 [76]

Answer:

The correct answer will be option-C

Explanation:

Mammals are warm-blooded animals that are they need to maintain the internal temperature irrespective of the external temperature at a constant rate or 37° C.

In cold conditions the person exposing the body parts to cold conditions response either by producing heat or conserving the heat in the body.

If a person removes the gloves, then a physiological change leads to the change in the diameter of the blood vessels. The diameter of the blood vessels reduces which reduces the loss of heat from the body as constriction of the blood vessels decreases the surface area to be exposed to cold conditions.

Thus, Option-C is the correct answer.
