Discuss why prokaryotic cells probably appeared before eukaryotic cells​
dsp73

Answer:

Prokaryotes are smaller and less developed compared to eukaryotes. Some of them inhabit very primitive environments that resemble earth’s early stages. Endosymbiotic theory states that eukaryotes arose by the endosymbiosis of prokaryotes.

Explanation

By endosymbiont theory, eukaryotic cells arise from prokaryotic cells. Here, the theory shows that eukaryotic ancestors lived in close association with prokaryotes, wherein in some cases, prokaryotes have been engulfed and might have lived inside eukaryotes.

Upon being engulfed by a host cell as undigested prey, these prokaryotes could have been internal parasites of the eukaryotes. But, later on, their relationship becomes mutualistic and these prokaryotes become incorporated as organelles, such as in the case of chloroplasts and mitochondria, which were previously separate prokaryotes

Tallness ( T) is dominant to dwarfness (t), while red (R) flower color is dominant to white (r). The heterozygous condition resu
Tju [1.3M]

Answer:

All the offspring have genotype RrTt

Phenotype is Pink and tall snapdragon

Explanation:

Given

Tallness ( T) is dominant to dwarfness (t)

Red (R) flower color is dominant to white (r)

It is given that heterozygous condition results in pink (Rr) flower color which means that the allels for color of flower show co dominance

Genotype of dwarf red snapdragon is RRtt

Genotype of a plant homozygous for tallness and white flowers is rrTT

The punnet square representing the cross between RRtt and rrTT is as given below-

Rt     Rt         Rt     Rt

rT RrTt      RrTt RrTt    RrTt

rT RrTt      RrTt RrTt    RrTt

rT RrTt      RrTt RrTt    RrTt

rT RrTt      RrTt RrTt    RrTt  

Thus all the offspring have genotype RrTt

Phenotype is Pink and tall snapdragon
