Through the course of evolution, do species tend to become simpler or more complex?

Why would breathing faster and having your heart beat faster when you exercise help your body to do MRS GREN?

1. Flower position, stem length, and seed shape are three characters that Mendel studied. Each is controlled by an independently

maria [59]

Answer:

a. 1/64 AATTDD

b. 1/64 aattdd

c. 8/64=1/8 AaTtDd

d. 2/64 = 1/32 AATTDd or aattDd or AAttDd or aaTTDd

Explanation:

Available data:

Flower position: Axial (A) is dominant to Terminal (a)

Stem length: Tall (T) is dominant to dwarf (t)

Seed shape: Round (R) is dominant to wrinkled (r)

Cross:

Parental) AaTtDd x AaTtDd

Knowing that these four genes assort independently, then we can infer that the F1 will have the next genotypic proportions for each gene:

AA= 1/4

Aa =2/4

aa = 1/4

TT = 1/4

Tt = 2/4

tt = 1/4

DD = 1/4

Dd = 2/4

dd = 1/4

This is the same as developing a Punnett square for each gene separately.

Knowing this, to get each of the mentioned genotypes for each trait, we must multiply their respective genotypic proportions, like this:

a. homozygous for the three dominant traits, AATTDD

AA1/4 x TT 1/4 x DD 1/4 = AATTDD 1/64

b. homozygous for the three recessive traits, aattdd

aa 1/4 x tt 1/4 x dd 1/4 = aattdd 1/64

c. heterozygous for all three characters, AaTtDd

Aa 2/4 x Tt 2/4 x Dd 2/4 = AaTtDd 8/16=1/8

d. homozygous for axial and tall, heterozygous for seed shape. There are four possibilities, all of them with the same result:

AATTDd --> 1/4 x 1/4 x 2/4 = 2/64=1/32

aattDd ---> 1/4 x 1/4 x 2/4 = 2/64=1/32

AAttDd ---> 1/4 x 1/4 x 2/4 = 2/64=1/32

aaTTDd ---> 1/4 x 1/4 x 2/4 = 2/64=1/32

1. Define fitness as it used to describe adaptation

aliya0001 [1]

Answer:

In terms of adaptation, fitness refers to the ability of an organism to survive and reproduce in a constantly changing environment.

Adaptive traits are very much important in a constantly changing environment as they increase the chances of survival of a population in the environment.

For example, Darwin's finches adapted to develop different types of beaks in order to get nutrition in different environments. Long necks of giraffes are also considered as a result of adaptation which helps them get the food located high on trees.

Elina [12.6K]

The conditions listed above are common side effects of DEPRESSANTS. Depressants are drugs which slowed down the central nervous system an the brain. They are usually used to treat anxiety and sleep disorders. Other side effects of depressants include: slurred speech, impaired memory and judgement, lowered inhibition, etc.

Scientists often want to know if the genetically transformed organism can pass its new traits on to its offspring and future gen

Orlov [11]

Answer:

Quickly

Explanation:

The more quickly that a new generation of organisms develops and reproduces the faster that you will be able to observe whether the new traits have been passed on to the new generation or not, and so on if you want to see this effect over several generations. For example, if you have genetically modified corn, you just have to wait one year to see if next year's generation of corn will have the modified trait or not. Conversely, if you geneticall modify an apple, you have to wait several years until the new generation of apples mature and are able to flower and produce the next generation of apple embryos.
