From the data given above, we can make the following:
N(0) = 2 x 3^0 = 2
N(1) = 2 x 3^1 = 6
N(2) = 2 x 3^2 = 18
An exponential function is represented by:
y = ab^x
where a is the initial value and b is the growth rate.
The exponential function for this case would be:
y = 2(3)^x
y = 6^x
Individual with genotype AaBBCC has the dark skin colour.
Explanation:
The skin colour is a polygenetic trait i.e two or more genes control the particular characteristic in an individual.
The amount of gene in the individual in such cases would determine the skin tone.
It is given that dominant alleles are responsible for darkest colour of the skin in the example. We could see that the genotype AaBBCC has maximum dominant alleles which makes us to deduce that individual with this genotype will have dark skin phenotype.
This quantitative occurrence of alleles in the individual decides its skin colour and variations in it.
The genes are independent of each other but have an additive effect on the phenotype like skin colour.
The 'D' in DNA stands for deoxyribose.
<span>the statement that is most likely true about the plant is : the plant has two identical alleles for the gene that codes for the trait.
For example, if a plant has a recessive tt allele for short, the chance of its offspring to be born short is really small. Because if it paired with dominant tall Allele T, the offspring will have the characteristic of tall plant</span>
