If two orange heliodors have a child, what is the probability their child would be red?

Biology
1 answer:
Stels [109]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

25% or 1/4

Explanation:

The gene for colour in Heliodors is controlled by two contrasting alleles that codes for Red (R) and Yellow (Y) colours. However, these two alleles exhibit incomplete dominance, which is a phenomenon whereby a combination of both alleles gives rise to a third intermediate phenotype that is a blending of the other two parental phenotypes. In this case, both colours gives rise to a heterozygous Orange coloration (RY) in Heliodors.

However, if two orange Heliodors (RY) are crossed, four possible offsprings will be produced with the genotypes: RR, RY, RY, YY. This shows a phenotypic ratio of 1 red: 2orange: 1yellow. Hence, the probability of having a child with red coloration is 1 out of 4 possible offsprings i.e. 1/4.

Expressing this in percentage, we have 1/4 × 100 = 25%.

what is the meaning of phosphoryl transfer potential and what does it mean to have a high or low phosphoryl transfer potential?
makvit [3.9K]

Phosphoryl-transfer potential is the ability of an organic molecule to transfer its terminal phosphoryl group to water which is an acceptor molecule. It is the “standard free energy of hydrolysis”.

Explanation:

This potential plays a key role during cellular energy transformation by energy coupling during ATP hydrolysis.  

A compound with a high phosphoryl-transfer potential has the increased ability to couple the carbon oxidation with ATP synthesis and can accelerate cellular energy transformation.  

A compound with a high phosphoryl-transfer potential can readily donate its terminal phosphate group; whereas, a compound with a low has a lesser ability to donate its phosphate group.

ATP molecules have a high phosphoryl transfer potential due to its structure, resonance stabilization, high entropy, electrostatic repulsion and stabilization by hydration. Compounds like creatine phosphate, phosphoenolpyruvate also have high phosphoryl-transfer potential.

Diffusion can be defined as ---.
insens350 [35]

Answer:

Movement of particles from a region of high concentration to a region of low concentration

Explanation:

  • Diffusion can be defined as the movement of particles from a region of high concentration to a region of low concentration.
  • Diffusion is a special type of diffusion that involves movement of solute molecules from a region of a high concentration to a region of high concentration until equilibrium is achieved.
  • Diffusion is a passive transport of particles, which means it does not involve use of energy in the form of ATP like the case of active transport.
