Assignment: Using Punnett Squares Exploration

2 answers:

7 0

You should draw these simple Punnett Squares as it's easy to see the answers:

1. Crossing RR x Rr results in all (100%) red cow offspring. 50% will be RR (homozygous dominant), 50% will be Rr (heterozygous).

2. Crossing Rr x Rr results in 3 red offspring (75%) and 1 white (25%). Genotypes though will be 25% RR, 50% Rr, and 25% rr.

3. Crossing rr x rr will result in 100% white offspring. All offspring will be rr.

Answer:

a) First cross is between a a homozygous red bull (RR) and a heterozygous red cow (Rr)

This shows that "Red" color is a dominant trait

So the cross between Rr and RR is

R R

R RR RR

r Rr Rr

Genotypic ratio: RR : Rr = 2 : 2 = 1: 1

Phenotypic ratio: homozygous red bull (RR) : heterozygous red cow (Rr) = 2:2 = 1: 1

b) Cross between a heterozygous red bull (Rr) and a heterozygous red cow (Rr)

R r

R RR Rr

r Rr rr

Genotypic ratio: RR : Rr:rr = 1:2:1

Phenotypic ratio: homozygous red bull (RR) : heterozygous red cow (Rr) : homozygous white bull (rr) = 1: 2: 1

c) Cross between a homozygous white bull (rr) and a homozygous white cow (rr)

Xr Yr

Xr Xr Xr Xr Yr

Genotypic ratio: Xr Xr: Xr Yr = 2: 2 = 1: 1

Phenotypic ratio: homozygous white cow (Xr Yr ) : heterozygous white bull (Xr Yr ) = 2: 2 = 1: 1

<u>Translation:</u> process of protein formation is called translation .

In the process of translation, a cell reads information from a molecule called a messenger RNA and uses this information to build a protein. Translation involves “decoding” a messenger RNA and using its information to build a polypeptide, or chain of amino acids .

Translation involve three major steps

• Initiation ("beginning"): in this stage, the ribosome gets together with the mRNA and the first tRNA so translation can begin.

• Elongation ("middle"): in this stage, amino acids are brought to the ribosome by tRNAs and linked together to form a poly peptide chain.

•Termination ("end"): in the last stage of translation, the finished polypeptide is released to go and do its job in the cell.

<u>Organelles involve in translation:</u>

Ribosomes: main process of translation occour at ribosomes.

Rough endoplasmic reticulum: ribosomes are located on rough endoplasmicreticulum .it bound proteins in the vesicles.Vesicles containing proteins are budded off into cytoplasm and move toward golgi apparatus for further modification .

Golgi apparatus: synthesisezed proteins are not functional . In golgi apperatus they are further modefied and processed and stored for a short time and then released toward destination.

padilas [110]

Answer:

The options are

A. Delta

B. Watershed

C. River

D. Lake

The CORRECT ANSWER IS A

A. Delta

Explanation:

Delta fan is a low lying vegetation that consists majorly of stream –the river accumulates borne sediments at its mouth. It occurs when a river flows to a body of standing water, taking with it soil and minerals as it flows into the body of standing water to form a fan shape or triangle as seen in the attached image.
