Answer:
Details about DNA are given in the explanation section. Hope it will be helpful for you.
Explanation:
DNA, or deoxyribonucleic acid, is the hereditary element in humans and almost all other organisms. Nearly every cell in a person’s body has the same type of DNA. Most DNA is found in the cell nucleus (nuclear DNA), but a small quantity of DNA can also be found in the mitochondria (mitochondrial DNA or mtDNA).
The information in DNA is stored as a code made up of four chemical bases: adenine (A), guanine (G), cytosine (C), and thymine (T). Human DNA consists of about 3 billion bases, and more than 99 percent of those bases are the same type in all people.
DNA bases pair up with each other, A with T and C with G, to form units that are called base pairs. Each base is also attached to a sugar molecule and a phosphate molecule. A base, sugar, and phosphate are called a nucleotide. Nucleotides are arranged in two long strands that form a spiral called a double helix.
A valuable feature of DNA is that it can replicate, or make copies of itself. Each strand of DNA in the double helix can serve as a pattern for duplicating the sequence of bases.
(B) 25% GG, 50% Gg, and 25% gg
<u>Explanation:</u>
Given:
Green is dominant and is coded by G
Albino is recessive and is coded by g
Two corn plants that are heterozygous for color are crossed.
The heterozygous condition of the plant would be Gg.
The cross is shown in the table attached.
According to the punnett square drawn,
The genotypic ratio is 1 : 2 : 1 (GG : Gg : gg)
= 25% GG , 50% Gg , 25% gg
Phenotypic ratio = 3 : 1 ( green : albino)
= 75% green, 25% albino
<span>D) Both are incompletely dominant
