Answer:
Genotypic ratio = 1:2:1
Phenotypic ratio = 3 tongue rollers : 1 non-tongue roller
Explanation:
This question involves a gene coding for the ability to roll the tongue or not in humans. The allele for tongue rolling (R) is dominant over the allele for non-tongue rolling (r).
According to this question, two individuals that are heterozygous for tongue rolling mate i.e. Rr × Rr. The proportion of offsprings that will be likely produced from this cross will be: RR, Rr, Rr, and rr.
- Offsprings with RR, Rr, Rr are tongue rollers
- Offsprings with 'rr' are non-tongue rollers.
Hence, the predicted genotypic and phenotypic ratio are as follows:
Genotypic ratio = 1 RR :2Rr :1rr
Phenotypic ratio = 3 tongue rollers : 1 non-tongue roller
Answer:
A
Explanation:
(March 16, 1774[1] – 1834) was the inventor of a cast-iron moldboard plow with replaceable parts, the first commercially successful iron moldboard plow
The correct answer is: 4) Standing defenses are always present; induced defenses develop in response to a threat
Induced defense is defense that can be changed or invoked when needed. Induced defenses are slow to happen. When invoked, induced defense requires energy but otherwise doesn’t.
Standing defense is always there. It is use, for example when predation is a constant threat.
Yes, If there were no concentration gradient of protons across the thylakoid membrane, the ATP synthase would not be able to convert ADP to ATP.
Answer:
The correct answer is D
Explanation:
The cell membrane is essentially composed of the following:
- phospholipids
- cholesterol
- proteins
The phospholipid consists of a <em>hydrophilic </em>phosphate 'head' and the tail is the <em>hydrophobic</em> fatty acid chain.When cellular membranes form,phospholipids collect into two layers in light of these hydrophilic and hydrophobic properties. The phosphate heads in each layer face the fluid or watery condition on either side, and the tails conceal away from the water between the layers of heads, since they are hydrophobic.
There are 3 main factors that greatly influence the fluidity of the plasma membrane:
- temperature
- cholesterol
- saturated and unsaturated fatty acids
