Mutate means “to change into something else.” When a mutation occurs in a gene, it changes the way a gene expresses in an organism. Proteins are the products of gene expression. Therefore, a mutation in a gene may cause a change in the way proteins form.

kondor19780726 [428]

Complete question:

A geneticist crossed fruit flies to determine the phenotypic ratio. The geneticist crossed a fly with blistery wings and spineless bristles (bbss) with a heterozygous fly that had normal wings and normal bristles (BbSs). Which proportion of offspring that are dominant for both traits in would you not expect based on Mendel's law of independent assortment? 1/2 , 4/16, 25% , or 1/4

Answer:

1/2 is the proportion of the offspring that is NOT expected among individuals that are dominant for both traits.

4/16 = 1/4 = 25% of the progeny and the correct expected proportion of individuals that are dominant for both traits.

Explanation:

<u>Available data</u>:

  • Cross:  a fly with blistery wings and spineless bristles with a heterozygous fly that had normal wings and normal bristles
  • Recessive trait: blistery wings and spineless bristles
  • Dominant trait: normal wings and normal bristles

Let us say that:

  • B is the dominant allele for normal wings
  • b is the recessive allele for blistery wings
  • S is the dominant allele for normal bristles
  • s is the recessive allele for spineless bristles

Parentals)        bbss       x        BbSs

Gametes)  bs, bs, bs, bs     BS, Bs, bS, bs

Punnett square)    BS        Bs         bS        bs

                     bs    BbSs    Bbss     bbSs    bbss

                     bs    BbSs    Bbss     bbSs    bbss

                     bs    BbSs    Bbss     bbSs    bbss

                     bs    BbSs    Bbss     bbSs    bbss

F1)  4/16 = 1/4 = 25%  of the progeny is expected to be BbSs, dyhibrid individuals, expressing normal wings and normal bristles

     4/16 = 1/4 = 25% of the progeny is expected to be Bbss, expressing normal wings and spineless bristles

     4/16 = 1/4 = 25% of the progeny is expected to be bbSs, expressing  blistery wings and normal bristles

     4/16 = 1/4 = 25% of the progeny is expected to be bbss, expressing  blistery wings and spineless bristles

Assessing biodiversity:
Helen [10]

Answer:

The correct answer will be option-A

Explanation:

Biodiversity refers to the diversity of the biological entities present in an ecosystem. Biodiversity has a wide spectrum which not only includes the number of the diversity of the organism but also the interaction between them.

The biodiversity is assessed to study the changes that are taking place in an ecosystem, to study the causes and how the changes affect the human well being.

The assessment decisions ignore the personal interests and the biasness as the aim of the approach is not fulfil the personal needs but to maintain sustainable management of the ecosystem.

Thus, option-A is the correct answer.
