For this week's CRQ, you are to design your own genetic cross between a female and a male. Be sure to include each of the follow

ing within your cross and then you will need to provide the solution as well.
1. What are the dominant and recessive traits in cross?
2. Is the male homozygous dominant, homozygous recessive, or heterozygous?
3. Is the female homozygous dominant, homozygous recessive, or heterozygous?

In your answer, provide the following as well:
1. genotypes and phenotypes for parent and offspring



If you want to insert an image of your cross, you may as well but NOT required.



Please write in complete sentences.

Answer and Explanation:

Punnett squares are illustrations that display the product of hybrid trait crosses by genetic breeding. Established parent genotypes and phenotypes are used and are usually compatible with Mendelian ratios and inheritance. The phnomenon influencing this behaviour is the

  • Law of Segregation,
  • Law of Independent assortment
  • and Dominance

For this cross...

Assuming Widow's peak= dominant

<u> 1. What are the dominant and recessive traits in cross?</u>

Parent generation or P generation:

gametes: Ww → Widow's peak dominant (W), No Widow's peak recessive (w)

<u>2. Is the male homozygous dominant, homozygous recessive, or heterozygous?</u>

Heterozygousity describes the allelic makeup; these traits are made of two different forms of the same gene.

Male: Ww  →  with the W.peak;  

(Thus, with both W and w this is a heterozygous trait)

<u>3. Is the female homozygous dominant, homozygous recessive, or heterozygous?</u>

However, homozygous traits are made up of the same forms of the gene called alleles.

Female: ww → without the W.peak  

(Thus, with both w ad w this is a homozygous trait)

<u>1. genotypes and phenotypes for parent and offspring...</u>

<u></u>

Assuming heterozygousity of the male , for the cross

P generation:                          Ww× ww

                            Widow's peak  ×No Widow's peak  

F1 generation:

  • genotype:                       Ww × ww       ...(from punnet square)
  • phenotype:          2 with the W.peak; 2 without

<em>∴ 50% are genotypically heterozygous while 50% is homozygous , 2 with the W.peak; 2 without </em>

The observation from the first question would tend to disprove the idea that evolution is based on b. inheritance of acquired characteristics because according to the experiment  <span>theory of <span>adaptation was taken as a basis.
The answer for the next question is definitely adaptation as at first every live -being should get used to its environment in order to develop and so on.</span></span>

Do you think that all pollen germinates indiscriminately on all stigmas?
r-ruslan [8.4K]
Pollen tube growth is one of the most fascinating—and essential—phenomena in the life cycle of flowering plants. After a compatible interaction between pollen grains and the stigma surface, the pollen germinates and forms the pollen tube, which grows through the stigma, style, and transmitting tract to deliver the sperm cells to the ovule." 
2) Although pollens of many species germinate in simple aqueous media, stigmas do not provide satisfactory sites for the germination of most foreign pollen... Stigmas not only provide the proper conditions for the germination of pollen from their particular species, they actively inhibit the germination of pollen of many unrelated species.

xxTIMURxx [149]

The oldest true fossils are trace fossils called Stromatolites found in Australia, and dated between 3.5 to 3.3 billion years old.

Raphael Baumgartner and their team have finally uncovered evidence of organic matter in the ancient rock formations known as stromatolites found at the Dresser Formation fossil site in the Pilbara region of Western Australia. They detail their findings in a new article published in the journal Geology.

With a variety of methods, including scanning electron microscopy, scanning transmission electron microscopy, energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy, Raman spectroscopy, nano-scale secondary ion mass spectrometry, and stable carbon isotope analysis, the researchers examined the samples in thin slices.

According to the team's analyses, pyrite, a mineral with many tiny pores, makes up the majority of the stromatolites. Additionally, the pyrite contains nitrogen-bearing organic material and strands and filaments of organic material that closely resemble the remains of microbial biofilm colonies.
