In clover plants, the pattern on the leaves is determined by a single gene with multiple alleles that are related in a dominance

series. The gene is not pleiotropic. Seven different alleles of this gene are known; an allele that determines the absence of a pattern is recessive to the other six alleles, each of which produces a different pattern All heterozygous combinations of alleles show complete dominance
a. How many different kinds of leaf patterns (including the absence of a pattern) are possible in a population of clover plants in which all seven alleles are represented? phenotype that could be represented by only a single genotype? you can identify a few plants representative of all possible pattern types. Explain this finding.
b. What is the largest number of different genotypes that could be associated with any one phenotype? Is there any
c. In a particular field, you find that the large majority of clover plants lack a pattern on their leaves, even though you can identify a few plants representative of all possible pattern types.explain this finding

Answer:

The correct answer is -

a. 7

b. 7 (p1p1, p1p2, p1p3, p1p4, p1p5, etc

c. p7 is abundant

Explanation:

According the question the dominance of the big leaves is p7 > p6 >p5 >p4 >p3 >p2 >p1 where 1 represent least dominance and 7 represent most dominance  

let represent the phenotype with the numbers 1 to 7 and genotype with a combination of these numbers so the genotype in respect of phenotype would be :

p7p7,p7p6, p7p5, p7p4, p7p3, p7p2, p7p1 - most dominant 7

p6p6, p6p5, p6p4, p6p3, p6p2, p6p1 - 6

p5p5, p5p4, p5p3, p5p2, p5p1 - 5

p4p4, p4p3, p4p2, p4p1 - 4

p3p3, p3p2, p3p1 - 3

p2p2, p2p1 - 2

p1p1- 1 least dominant

Thus, there are 28 different combinations or patterns of genotypes. 7 phenotypes patterns.

How do carbohydrates contain and/or display information for cells?
Cloud [144]

Answer:

Carbohydrates may be defined as the polymers of the sugars and one of the most important biomolecule of the living organisms. Carbohydrates plays an important structural and functional role.

Carbohydrates are always present on the exoplasmic surface of the plasma membrane. The are present in the association with the proteins and lipids as glycoproteins and glycolipids. These carbohydrates acts as the signaling molecule that display information on cell surface.

Crops are protected from disease-causing fungi by use of fungicides or by the use of genetically engineered fungi-resistant crop
Mkey [24]

Correct answer: C). Fungicides interfere with fungal growth and reproduction, while genetic engineering produces plants resistant to fungi.  

Fungicide is a chemical substance that is known to cause toxicity in fungi in order to kill them. Its use can help to reduce the number of fungal infection that causes great loss to plants and its productivity.

In genetic engineering, the DNA of plants is altered in such a way that it produces a toxic protein, which will kill the fungi when it tries to infect them or slow down the growth of the plant.

What are some examples of genetic diversity
Lena [83]

Explanation:

Woody plants, such as trees, tend to have more genetic diversity, on the whole, than vascular plants, such as grasses. Part of the diversity is due to the size of each species' geographic range and how far they can move their genetic information, for example through wind pollination or animal seed dispersers
