In peas, the trait for tall plants is dominant (T) and the trait for short plants is recessive (t). The trait for yellow seed co

lor is dominant (Y) and the trait for green seed color is recessive (y). A cross between two plants results in 296 tall yellow plants and 104 tall green plants. Which of the following are most likely to be the genotypes of the parents?
a. TyYY x Ttyyb. TTYy x TTYyc. TTyy x TTYyd. TtYy x TtYy

Answer:

TTYy x TTYy and  TtYy x TtYy

Explanation:

Cross between two the two plants yielded yellow and green plant in the ratio 296:104.

296:104 is approximately equal to 3:1.

According to Mendelian law, 3:1 ratio of dominant to recessive phenotype results from a cross involving two heterozygous individual.

Taking the seed colour into consideration, a cross between two heterozygous individual will be:

Yy   x   Yy = YY, 2Yy and yy

Ration of yellow to green = 3:1

<em>Hence, </em><em>option b</em><em> and </em><em>option d</em><em> are most likely to be the genotypes of the parent because both shows the genotype of seed colour in heterozygous conditions. </em>

IrinaVladis [17]

Answer:

The correct answer is: Genetic Drift.

Explanation:

  • In any population of any species having two or more alleles encoding for different genes, the frequency of occurrence of each allele among the individuals of a population can vary.
  • The frequency of one allele may be far more or far less than the frequency of other alleles.
  • The frequency of any particular allele is dependent on factors like random mating among individuals as well as natural selection, that tends to increase the frequency of those alleles which provide a survival advantage to the individual in a given environment.
  • Genetic drift can be defined as a phenomenon due to which the frequency of an allele encoding for a particular gene undergoes drastic change (increase or decrease) in a population due to random mating as well as natural selection.
  • In the given statement, one individual of an isolated population of piranhas underwent synonymous mutation in the beta-globin encoding gene.
  • A synonymous mutation can be defined as such a change in the nucleotide sequence of a gene that does not affect the sequence, structure or function of the protein encoded by it.
  • The increase in the frequency of the mutated form of the beta-globin gene after five generations to 5% indicates that due to the impact of random mating or natural selection or both, this has happened.
