Suppose that the eye color and wing shape genes assort independently (they are not linked, i.e., they are located on different c

hromosomes). In a mating between a female with the genotype w+m+/wm and a male of genotype wm/wm what percentage of the F1 progeny will have a non-parental genotype?A. 100B. 50C. 25D. 75

4 0

Answer:

50.

Explanation:

The independent assortment means the segregation of one pair of trait is not dependent on the other pair of trait. These traits are present on the different chromosome.

The crossing between w+m+/wm female and wm/wm male results in the progeny as w+m/wm (non-parental progeny)-25% ,w+m+/wm (parental progeny)-25%, wm/wm (parental progeny)-25% and wm+/wm(non-parental progeny)-25%. Total 50% progeny are non parental type.

Thus, the correct answer is option (B).

Which of the following is/are common to chemiosmosis and the light-dependent reactions of photosynthesis? electron transport onl
blondinia [14]

Answer:

Both electron transport and a proton gradient

Explanation:

The process of oxidative phosphorylation in mitochondria and electron transport chain in photosynthesis undergo chemiosmosis to produce ATP molecules.

Chemiosmosis is a process where the energy utilized by the movement of proton and electrons produces ATP molecules.

Both the processes involve the movement of electrons through electron carriers where the reduced energy is utilized to drive the flow of protons through the plasma membrane. This creates a proton gradient across the plasma membrane which rotates the ATP synthase and converts the ADP molecules into ATP molecules.

Thus, the selected option is correct.
