A purple-flowered pea plant is crossed with a white-flowered pea plant. All the F1 plants produced purple flowers. When the F1 p

lants are allowed to self-pollinate, 401 of the F2s have purple flowers and 131 have white flowers. What are the genotypes of the parental and F1 generation plants?

Answer:

Parentals: PP (purple) and pp (white)

F1: Pp (purple)

Explanation:

When the two parental plants of differing phenotypes (purple or white flowers) cross, the F1 is 100% purple. This result suggests that the parentals were true breeding (homozygous), with purple flowers being the dominant allele.

When the F1 self pollinates, the F2 shows proportions very similar to 3/4 purple and 1/4 white (401/532 ≅ 3/4 and 131/532 ≅ 1/4). The 3:1 phenotypic ratio is typical of the offspring resulting from a cross between two heterozygous individuals.

The results make sense if the genotypes of the different generations are:

Parentals: PP (purple) X pp (white)

F1:                          Pp (purple)

F2:  1/4 PP, 2/4 Pp, 1/4 pp

Bundles of axons in the central nervous system are called
Karolina [17]

Answer: Bundles of axons in the central nervous system are called a "tract"

Explanation:

Axons(nerve fiber) consist of long slender projection of neurons or nerve cells that conduct and transmit impulses away from the neuron or nerve cell body. Axons are surrounded by endoneurium layer which contain protein fluid that surround each axon.

Bundles of axon in the CNS is known as tract. We have ascending tracts and descending tracts. The ascending tracts function are to conduct and carry impulses along the spinal cord to the brain while the descending tracts transmit and carry the impulses from the brain to lower regions (downward) of the body. Tracts are identified by their origin (where the bundle start) and also the end/termination of axon bundle.

The largest tracts are fasciculi gracilis and cuneatus which are known as ascending tracts.
