Answer:

The probability of getting a mottled offspring is 0%. There is no A2 allele involved in the cross.

Explanation:

<u>Available data</u>:

  • The gene for petal color in a flower has incomplete dominance
  • Two A1 alleles (A1A1) express black color
  • Two A2 alleles (A2A2) express white color
  • One of each allele (A1A2) express mottled color

In a cross between two black flowers, there is no allele A2, there are just two alleles A1. So, the cross is:

Parental)    A1A1    x    A1A1

Gametes)  A1   A1       A1   A1

Punnet Square)     A1         A1

                   A1    A1A1     A1A1

                   A1     A1A1     A1A1

F1 Phenotypes: 100% black flowers

F1 Genotype: 100% A1A1

There are 0% of probabilities of getting a mottled offspring.

Answer:

The probability is 0%.

Explanation:

We know that an individual with two A1 alleles (A1A1) are black, so if two black flowers are crossed that means two flowers with A1 (black)alleles, as these flowers do not have any A2 allele to give a mottled flower, the only type of flower that will come out from this cross is a black one.

We can see this with a Punnett square.

<u>    ║A1        ║     A1     </u>

<u>A1║  A1A1  ║    A1A1     </u>

<u>A1║ A1A1   ║   A1A1       </u>

Which derived character caused the k. monera to be divided into the k. archaebacteria and the k. eubacteria?
Flura [38]
Derived characteristics refers to those traits that have changed from ancestral form or function. The derived character, which cause K. monera to be divided into K. archeabacteria and K. eubacteria is that genetically and biochemically the two are different. The archeabacterial possess unusual lipid, which is not find in eubacteria or any other organism. And this give it the capacity to live in extreme environments.

What does the ocean do to the CO2 in the atmosphere?
LenaWriter [7]

Answer:

It absorbs.

Explanation:

The ocean absorbs carbon dioxide from the atmosphere wherever air meets water. Wind causes waves and turbulence, giving more opportunity for the water to absorb the carbon dioxide. Fish and other animals in the ocean breathe oxygen and give off carbon dioxide (CO2), just like land animals.
