In pea plants, flowers are either white or purple; the purple color is produced by pigments called anthocyanins. The production

of anthocyanins is a two-step process: the first is controlled by the C gene and the second by the P gene. Both genes must produce functional proteins for anthocyanin to be expressed. For each gene, the dominant (C and P) alleles produce functional proteins. You cross two pea plants, each with the genotype CcPp. What proportion of their offspring will have white flowers?

Answer:

7/16

Explanation:

<em>The proportion of the offspring from the cross that will have white flowers is 7/16.</em>

The presence of anthocyanin which determines purple coloration is conditioned by the C_ and P_ alleles. It means that the absence of one or both of C and P will result in white flowers.

Two plants, each with CcPp are crossed:

CcPp   x   CcPp

Offpring

1 CCPP - purple

2 CCPp - purple

2 CcPP - purple

4 CcPp - purple

2 Ccpp - white

1 CCpp - white

1 ccPP -  white

2 ccPp - white

1 ccpp -  white

Proportion of offspring with white flowers = 7/16

Proportion of offspring with purple flower = 9/16

<em>See the attached image for the Punnet's square analysis of the cross.</em>

Why is the archaea domain closer to eukarya than bacteria?
harkovskaia [24]

Answer:

Archaea domain is closer to eukarya than bacteria because genetically they are more similar to Eukarya than Bacteria.

Explanation:

Options for this question are:

  • <em>They both lack a nucleus and contain  cytoplasm. </em>
  • <em>The unique functional adaptations of Archaea are more similar to Eukarya adaptations.  </em>
  • <em> They both evolved in the same geological time period. </em>
  • <em> </em><em>Genetically, the Archaea are more similar to Eukarya than Bacteria. </em>
  • <em> They both have membrane-bound organelles. </em>
  • <em> Archaea is not closer to Eukarya because it contains prokaryotic cells just like Bacteria.</em>

Archaea are unicellular prokaryotic organisms, which share many characteristics with bacteria, however, the existence of metabolic functions and genes similar to eukaryotic organisms suggest that there is a genetic link between the two. Even the enzymes responsible for genetic processing, such as transcriptases and translation enzymes, are similar to those in eukaryotic cells.

The theory that establishes the relationship between Archaea and Eukaryotic suggests the existence of a common ancestor, whose later evolution allowed an Archaea to join a protobacteria to form a eukaryotic cell, and hence their genetic relationship.

Lelechka [254]

Answer:

The correct answer is option B.  The contraction forces of the innervated muscle fibers.

Explanation:

Electromyography or EMG is the study of muscle activity with the help of analyzing electric signals that are burst or generated by the contraction of the muscle fibers. In other words, it is the electrical activity of the skeletal muscles in response to a nerve's stimulation of the muscle.

EMG uses the myoelectric signals to analyze muscle that is generated during the contraction forces of the inverted muscle fibers of the skeletal muscle.

Thus, the correct answer is option B.  The contraction forces of the innervated muscle fibers.
