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>

Bundles of axons in the central nervous system are called
Karolina [17]

Answer: Bundles of axons in the central nervous system are called a "tract"

Explanation:

Axons(nerve fiber) consist of long slender projection of neurons or nerve cells that conduct and transmit impulses away from the neuron or nerve cell body. Axons are surrounded by endoneurium layer which contain protein fluid that surround each axon.

Bundles of axon in the CNS is known as tract. We have ascending tracts and descending tracts. The ascending tracts function are to conduct and carry impulses along the spinal cord to the brain while the descending tracts transmit and carry the impulses from the brain to lower regions (downward) of the body. Tracts are identified by their origin (where the bundle start) and also the end/termination of axon bundle.

The largest tracts are fasciculi gracilis and cuneatus which are known as ascending tracts.
