2B,3B should be it becasue of 5B
Answer:
a. Genotype of the parents are; Rr and rr
b. Please find the explanation to A below
Explanation:
This question involves a single gene that codes for flower color in a plant. The allele for red flower (R) is dominant over the allele for white flower (r). This means that a plant that is heterozygous for flower color (Rr) will be red.
In a cross between a plant with red flowers and white flowers, the phenotype of the offsprings is represented as: 37 plants with red flowers and 41 plants with white flowers. Observing from this number, one would realize that the phenotype ratio is equivalent to 1:1. This phenotypic ratio is only possible when the parent with red flower is heterozygous for the gene i.e. Rr. Hence, the genotype of the parents are: Rr and rr.
b) If one were to cross Rr (red flower) × rr (white flower), the phenotypic ratio of red to white offsprings will be 1:1. Hence, judging from the ratio got from the cross of the two parents above (1:1), the parental genotypes are Rr and rr.
All living organisms are classified into groups based on very basic, shared characteristics. Organisms within each group are then further divided into smaller groups. These smaller groups are based on more detailed similarities within each larger group. This grouping system makes it easier for scientists to study certain groups of organisms. Characteristics such as appearance, reproduction, mobility, and functionality are just a few ways in which living organisms are grouped together. These specialized groups are collectively called the classification of living things. The classification of living things includes 7 levels: kingdom, phylum, classes, order, families, genus, and species .
Kingdoms
The most basic classification of living things is kingdoms. Currently there are five kingdoms. Living things are placed into certain kingdoms based on how they obtain their food, the types of cells that make up their body, and the number of cells they contain.
Phylum
The phylum is the next level following kingdom in the classification of living things. It is an attempt to find some kind of physical similarities among organisms within a kingdom. These physical similarities suggest that there is a common ancestry among those organisms in a particular phylum.
Classes
Classes are way to further divide organisms of a phylum. As you could probably guess, organisms of a class have even more in common than those in an entire phylum. Humans belong to the Mammal Class because we drink milk as a baby.
Order
Organisms in each class are further broken down into orders. A taxonomy key is used to determine to which order an organism belongs. A taxonomy key is nothing more than a checklist of characteristics that determines how organisms are grouped together.
Families
Orders are divided into families. Organisms within a family have more in common than with organisms in any classification level above it. Because they share so much in common, organisms of a family are said to be related to each other. Humans are in the Hominidae Family.
Genus
Genus is a way to describe the generic name for an organism. The genus classification is very specific so there are fewer organisms within each one. For this reason there are a lot of different genera among both animals and plants. When using taxonomy to name an organism, the genus is used to determine the first part of its two-part name.
Species
Species are as specific as you can get. It is the lowest and most strict level of classification of living things. The main criterion for an organism to be placed in a particular species is the ability to breed with other organisms of that same species. The species of an organism determines the second part of its two-part name
