Eye pigment in a particular strain of fly is determined by two genes. An autosomal gene that controls the color of the pigments

in the eye has two alleles: a dominant allele ( R ) that results in red eyes and a recessive allele ( r ) that results in sepia eyes. A sex-linked gene that controls the expression of the colored pigments also has two alleles: a dominant allele ( T ) that allows for expression of the colored pigments and a recessive allele ( t ) that does not allow for expression of the colored pigments. Individuals without a T allele have white eyes regardless of the alleles of other eye-color genes.
Which of the following represents a cross between a white-eyed female and a red-eyed male?

A

TtXrXr×ttXRY
B

RRXTXT×RrXTY

RrXtXt×RrXTY is representing the cross between the white eyed female and red eyed male.

Option D

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

The genes that are discussed here both are completely dominant over their recessive alleles. In the autosome, the dominant R gene is responsible for red eye and recessive r gene is responsible for sepia eye. But in allosome, the dominant T gene allows the eye colour to be expressed and the recessive t gene doesn't allow eye colour to be expressed and makes it white.

As the female do have 2 X chromosomes and the female is white eyed, then both the chromosomes of female have t gene.

As the male is red eyed and have one X chromosome, so the male must have atleast one R gene in autosome to make the eye colour red and must have T gene in his X chromosome to make it appear in phenotype.

So the most possible cross that is given here is RrXtXt×RrXTY.

Which mutagens incorporate into dna and frequently pair with the wrong base?
aleksandr82 [10.1K]

Chemicals can make mutations by a number of mechanisms. Base analogs are incorporated into DNA and mostly pair with the wrong base. Alkylating agents, deaminating chemicals, hydroxylamine, and oxidative radicals change the structure of DNA bases, thus altering their pairing properties. Introducing agents wedge between the bases and cause single-base insertions and deletions in replication.

The nursing instructor informs the students that which anatomical structure controls the elimination of urine from the body?
Tomtit [17]

The Urinary bladder controls the elimination of urine from the body.

  • The lower abdomen contains this triangle-shaped, hollow organ. Ligaments that are connected to the pelvic bones and other organs hold it in place.
  • When storing pee, the bladder's walls relax and expand; when emptying urine through the urethra, they contract and flatten.
  • The typical healthy adult bladder has a two to five-hour storage capacity of up to two cups of urine.

Three parts of bladder allow urine to be discharged:

  • A pair of sphincter muscles. By tightly shutting around the bladder opening like a rubber band, these circular muscles assist prevent urine leakage.
  • In the bladder's nerves. When it's time to urinate or empty the bladder, the nerves let the person know.
  • Urethra. Urine can travel through this tube and leave the body. Urine leaks from the bladder as a result of the brain's tightening signal to the bladder muscles.
