If a corn plant was heterozygous for kernel color and seed shape, what would be the genotype of the plant?

Biology
1 answer:
NNADVOKAT [17]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

<em>The genotype of the plant will be PpSs and the phenotype will be purple colour and smooth shaped. </em>

Explanation:

Considering the description in the question, we know that purple colour is dominant over the yellow colour and smooth shape is dominant over the wrinkled shape.

A homozygous trait can be described as a trait which arises due to the same alleles of a gene. A heterozygous trait arises when both the alleles of a gene are different. In such a case, one allele will be dominant over the other one and the phenotype of the dominant allele will be seen in the plant. As purple colour and smooth shape are dominant traits, hence they will be seen in the heterozygous plant.

1. If a red flower (RR) and a white flower (rr) were crossbred, resulting in 100% Rr, what phenotypes would be seen according to
Digiron [165]

Answer: 1) The phenotype of Rr is Pink according to incomplete dominance.

Incomple dominance occurs when none of the alleles is completely dominant over the other, resulting in blending of the phenotype from the parents. When a red (RR) and a white flower (rr) are crossbred, they result in Rr that is a pink phenotype.


2) According to Codominance, the phenotype of Rr is Red and White flower.

Codominance occurs when both the alleles are equally expressed. In this case allele for Red (R) and white (r) phenotype are expressed equally giving Red and White flower.


3) In Codominance, both the alleles are visible in the hybrid and in Incomplete dominance, intermediate (blend of parental) phenotype is visible in the hybrid.

Luda [366]

The ability to sustain aerobic activity for a prolonged period of time is known as cardiorespiratory fitness.

Cardiorespiratory fitness or endurance refers to the ability of the circulatory as well as respiratory systems of the body to provide fuel or power during sustained aerobic activity.

In order to enhance one's cardiorespiratory fitness, physical activities which maintain heart rate elevations at a safe level for a sustained length of time, like walking, running, cycling, etc. need to be attempted.

The cardiorespiratory fitness is linked with the functioning of heart, lungs as well as blood vessels. However, one should slowly increase the pace when performing such activities.

Which period of the cell cycle does a cell spend most of it's time in?
erik [133]
Interphase. This is the most important stage because during this time the DNA is replicating and the cell is growing. I think it’s about 95% of its life in interphase.
