In Andalusian fowl, B is the gene for black plumage (head feathers) and B' (pronounced "B prime") is the gene for white plumage.

These genes, however, show incomplete dominance. The heterozygous (BB') condition results in blue plumage. List the genotypic and phenotypic ratios expected from the following crosses: a) black x blue b) blue x blue c) blue x white

Answer:

a. Phenotypic and Genotypic ratio= 1:1

b. Phenotypic and Genotypic ratio= 1:2:1

c. Phenotypic and Genotypic ratio= 1:1

Explanation:

The crosses are monohybrid involving a single gene coding for plumage color in Andalusian fowl. The alleles for this gene exhibit incomplete dominance, a genetic scenario whereby an allele does not completely mask the expression of another, instead it blends with it forming an intermediate phenotype.

In this case, allele B is for black plumage

allele B' is for white plumage

In an heterozygous state i.e. combined allelic state (BB'), an intermediate blue plumage is formed.

A black fowl will possess a genotype BB

A blue fowl will possess a genotype BB'

A white fowl will possess a genotype B'B'

In the crosses between these fowls as highlighted in the question above (see attached image), the following genotypic and phenotypic ratio will be produced by the resulting offsprings.

a) Black (BB) × Blue (BB') : 1:1 (2 Black, 2 Blue)

b) Blue (BB') × Blue (BB') : 1:2:1 (1 Black, 2 Blue, 1 White)

c) Blue (BB') × White (B'B') : 1:1 (2 Blue, 2 White)

INCOMPLETE DOMINANCE INHERITANCE:

<span>5.  In Andalusian fowl, B is the gene for black plumage (head feathers) and B' (pronounced "B prime") is the gene for white plumage.  These genes, however, show incomplete dominance.  The heterozygous (BB') condition results in blue plumage.  List the genotypic and phenotypic ratios expected from the following crosses:  a) black x blue  b) blue x blue  c) blue x white</span>

<span>6. </span><span>In snapdragons, petal color is determined by a single gene locus with two alleles making the "red" allele (R) incompletely dominant to the "white" allele (r).  Heterozygotes have petals, which are neither red nor white, but pink.  a) If a true-breeding red flower is pollinated with pollen from a white flower: What fraction of the seeds (F1 generation) would be expected to produce red-flowered plants?  What fraction of the gametes produced by the F1 plants would be expected to bear the R allele?  b) If two pink flowered plants are crossed, what genotypic and phenotypic ratios are expected among the offspring (F1 generation)?</span>

Which curve shows the course of the reaction in the presence of an enzyme--the black curve or the red curve? Which line represen
nikklg [1K]
I found the attached image on the internet and it really helps complete this exercise.

First question:
In the presence of an enzyme, the course of the reaction is shown by the red curve. The necessary energy to make a reaction occur is less when there is an enzyme to help the reaction happen. Enzymes work as catalysts that act over substrates converting them into different molecules in a much accelerated way then it would happen without the enzyme's help, if it would happen at all.

Second question:
The activation energy is represented by line B. The activation energy is the energy needed to be available for a reaction to happen. If we compare it with line A, which represents the activation energy necessary for a reaction without an enzyme, we can see how much less energy is necessary to dispend when an enzyme is part of the reaction. Line C represents the energy resultant from the reaction.

The number of differences between cytochrome c of humans and cytochrome c of other organisms is as follows: Rhesus monkey - 1 di
liubo4ka [24]

Answer:

The species that will be most similar to humans will be

1. rhesus

2. pigeon

3. fruit fly

Explanation:

Evolution can be described as the process in which different organism evolve from common ancestors over a long period of time. Evolutionary studies show that some organisms have more shared characteristics as compared with other organisms. These organisms with common characteristics are believed to be closer to one another and evolved from the same ancestors.

In the above question, as there is only one difference between the cytochrome c of humans and rhesus, hence rhesus is the closest to humans. Pigeons has lesser number of differences than fruit fly, hence it is second on the list. Fruit fly has the maximum differences hence it is placed last.
