Answer: It is a nucleic acid.

It is found in DNA.

It is used to build an organism’s structures.

It allows parents and their young to have similar characteristics.

The genetic code can be defined as a set of rules that are present in the coded form of  nucleic acid specifically in the DNA of an organism which is being inherited by an offsprings from the parents. The genetic code contains the information that is used by a cellular machinery to produced specialized functional proteins. These proteins are the building blocks of life and they ensure that the characters inherited from the parents should also be expressed in the offspring.

In pea plants the allele for tall plants in dominant to the allele for short plants, and the allele for purple flower colour is
Tom [10]

Answer:

The correct answer is - 4. ttPp

Explanation:

Given - tall is dominant over short pea plant

let assume T is dominant and t is short which is recessive

Similarly, P for dominant purple flower and p for white flower

The offspring has a short plant which means it has both t allele or recessive allele for the height of a plant by the cross of a true-breeding purple and true-breeding white:

    P   P

p   Pp Pp

p   Pp Pp

This means the offspring would have a heterozygous case for the genotype of the flower of the pea plant

Thus, the correct answer is ttPp
