In pea plants, there is a dominant gene that causes some plants to be unnaturally tall. Another dominant gene causes flowers to

be purple instead of white. Suppose a plant homozygous for the dominant form of both of these genes is mated to another plant that is homozygous for the recessive form of both genes. What fraction of the F2 generation will be tall and white? g

Answer:

1/16

Explanation:

Let T represents the allele for unnatural tallness and P represents the allele for purpleness. The alternate form of both traits (tallness and whiteness) will be t and p respectively.

The genotype of a plant that is homozygous dominant for both traits will be TTPP while the one that is homozygous recessive for both trait will be ttpp.

If both are mated:                TTPP     x       ttpp

All the F1 offsprings will be unnaturally tall and purple with TtPp genotype

If two of the F1 offsprings are mated, the two traits will assort independently and produce the following phenotype at F2 according to Mendelian ratio:

<em>Unnaturally tall, Purple flower colour     T_P_       9/16</em>

<em>Unnaturally tall, White flower colour       T_pp        3/16</em>

<em>Tall, Purple flower colour                          ttP_          3/16</em>

<em>Tall, White flower colour                            ttpp          1/16</em>

The answer is 1/16 (see the attached image for Punnet's square analysis)

Scilla [17]

Answer: TRUE

Explanation:

Sound waves enter the OUTER EAR and travel through a narrow way up to the eardrum, where it vibrates.

The vibrations are sent to the bones of the MIDDLE EAR where they are amplified, and passed to a structure called COCHLEA in the INNER EAR.

Finally, it reaches the sensory cells that passes it to the auditory nerve that transmit the sound to the brain as electrical signals (neural messages) for proper interpretation.

So, it is True because from OUTER EAR to MIDDLE EAR, to INNER EAR.

Crude oil is <u>refined to separate the chemicals used for gasoline, lubricants, plastics, and other products.</u>

<u />

  • In a distillation tower, the crude oil is separated by boiling point after being heated by a furnace.
  • The material is then transformed into finished goods like fuels like gasoline and diesel, as well as specialty items like asphalt and solvents, by using heat, pressure, or a catalyst.
  • Ethane, liquid petroleum gas (LPG), and naphtha are the three main petrochemical feedstocks generated from crude oil.
  • These are mostly employed in the creation of synthetic fibers, plastic polymers, and other petrochemical intermediates.
  • With increased global income, demand for these products will only continue to rise.
