How long is the world

Answer:

Using those measurements, the equatorial circumference of Earth is about 24,901 miles (40,075 km). However, from pole-to-pole — the meridional circumference — Earth is only 24,860 miles (40,008 km) around. This shape, caused by the flattening at the poles, is called an oblate spheroid

For each of the following statements, indicate
stepan [7]

The plants that were allowed to self pollinate were the F1 plants.

The plants that are true breeding are P generation plants.

The plants where there were 3times as many tall plants as short plants are in F2 generation.

<h3><u>Explanation:</u></h3>

This question is based on the Mendel’s Experiment. Sir Gregor Johann Mendel was the father of genetics who experimented on garden pea plants <em>Pisum</em> <em>sativum</em> to see whether the characters got mixed or not and to know the real cause behind different traits of same character in plants.

He took the pure homozygous tall and short plants separately which he called as parental generation or P generation. These plants were homozygous, hence pure breeding.

As these plants were crossed between themselves, then the F1 generation showed all tall plants. This is because of the heterozygous plants which showed character of dominant trait. These plants were allowed to self pollinate.

As a result of self pollination of the F1 plants, the F2 plants were 75% tall in number whereas the other 25% short, which gave the phenotypic ratio of 3:1.
