20. Why are scientific theories changed but never thrown away?

1 answer:

7 0

Scientific Theory change but not thrown away because scientist continue looking for possibilities and exact proportion to prove such theory, though it is change because they always conducted hypnosis in every theory and once it proves something different they conduct another hypothesis for more actual evidence.

True or false: An allele is a version of a gene?

LUCKY_DIMON [66]

Answer:

True

Explanation:

I will give an example. Two plants cross breeds. A pink flower and a red flower. The red flower has a gene for red color and the pink has a gene for pink color. Mix the two together and you have an offspring with two different genes, or alleles, that are either going to be mixed or the plant will be one or the other color.

When pink sweet peas were self-pollinated and the seeds were collected and sown, the following flower colors were obtained: Red

Pavlova-9 [17]

Answer:

c. 1:2:1

The results are consistent with incomplete dominance for this trait, with pink flowers being heterozygous.

Explanation:

If flower color were determined by a gene showing incomplete dominance, the possible genotypes and phenotypes are as follows:

RR- red
ww - white
Rw - pink

If pink sweet peas are self-pollinated, then a cross between two heterozygous individuals is done (Rw x Rw).

From this cross the expected ratios are:

1/4 RR (red)
2/4 Rw (pink)
1/4 ww (white)

So the null hypothesis is that the observed results exhibit a 1:2:1 ratio.

<h3>Chi square test</h3>

$X^{2} = \sum \frac{(Observed - Expected)^2}{Expected}$

The observed frequencies were:

34 Red
76 Pink
40 White

Total 150

The expected frequencies for our null hypothesis are:

1/4 x 150 = 37.5 Red
2/4 x 150 = 75 Pink
1/4 x 150 = 37.5 white

$X^{2} = \frac{(34- 37.5)^2}{37.5} + \frac{(76- 75)^2}{75} + \frac{(40- 37.5)^2}{37.5}$

$X^2=0.5067$

The degrees of freedom (DF) are calculated as number of phenotypes - 1; in this case DF = 3-1 = 2.

If we look at the Chi square table, for 2 DF and a probability of p0.05, the critical value is 5.991

Our X^2 value of 0.5067 is less than the critical value, so we do not reject the null hypothesis. The results are consistent with incomplete dominance for this trait, with pink flowers being heterozygous.
