n Drosophila melanogaster, forked bristles are caused by an allele (Xf) that is X linked and recessive to an allele for normal b

ristles (X+). Brown eyes are caused by an allele (b) that is autosomal and recessive to an allele for red eyes (b+). A female fly that is homozygous for normal bristles and red eyes mates with a male fly that has forked bristles and brown eyes. The F1 are intercrossed to produce the F2. What will the proportions of the F2 flies be (male with red eyes and forked bristles) from the cross?

Answer:

Proportion of the F2 male with red eyes and forked bristle will be 1/4

Explanation:

forked bristles are caused by an allele (Xf) that is X linked and recessive to an allele for normal bristles (X+).

Brown eyes are caused by an allele (b) that is autosomal and recessive to an allele for red eyes (b+)

A female fly that is homozygous for normal bristles and red eyes mates with a male fly that has forked bristles and brown eyes

    X+X+b+b+  x    Xfbb

the F1 gives   1/2X+Xf 1/2b+b

                      1/2X+Y  1/2b+b

intercross of F1

      Proportion of the F2 male with red eyes and forked bristle will be

      forked bristle= Xfy = 1/2 and for red eyes  2/4= 1/2  = 1/2x1/2 =1/4

7nadin3 [17]

Answer:

The correct answer will be option-A

Explanation:

Cytochalasin is the metabolic product released from the fungus. The cytochalasin acts a toxin to the cell as it inhibits the division of the cell.

Cytochalasin act by inhibiting the cytoplasmic separation during cell division as it blocks the formation of contractile microfilaments. The presence of cytochalasin inhibits the elongation of acing filament as it blocks the addition of the monomer to the growing end of the filament.

Since it prevents the formation of the contractile rings and cytoplasmic separation, therefore, option-A is the correct answer.

Como se representa la molecula de agua y en cuantas partes
Hitman42 [59]
<span>¡La opinión de un químico sobre el mundo no es tan estrecha como se podría pensar! Sí, empezamos con el átomo, y luego pasamos a las reglas que gobiernan los tipos de unidades estructurales que se pueden hacer con ellos. Se nos enseña tempranamente a predecir las propiedades de la materia en masa de estos arreglos geométricos. Y luego llegamos a H2O, y estamos sorprendidos al descubrir que muchas de estas predicciones están muy lejos, y que el agua (y por implicación, la vida misma) ni siquiera debería existir en nuestro planeta. Pero pronto aprendemos que esta pequeña combinación de tres núcleos y ocho electrones posee propiedades especiales que lo hacen único entre los más de 15 millones de especies químicas que conocemos actualmente. Cuando nos detenemos a reflexionar sobre las consecuencias de esto, la química pasa de ser una ciencia arcana a un viaje de maravilla y placer mientras aprendemos a relacionar el mundo microscópico del átomo con el mundo mayor en el que todos vivimos.</span>
