In beans the pod texture and growth form genes are located on different chromosomes. There are two varieties of beans in a farme

r’s field. One has tough pods (T) and a bush-type growth form (B). The second has tender pods (t) and also has a climbing-type (b) growth form. A farmer starts a breeding program with these two homozygous (= true breeding) varieties. The F1 plants are then self-crossed to produce an F2 generation.
a. What is the genotype and phenotype of the F1?

b. What proportion of the F2 are heterozygous for bush-type growth form?

c. What proportion of the F2 have tender pods?

d. What proportion of the F2 are heterozygous for growth form and have tender pods on the same plants?

Answer:

a. Genotype in F1 - TtBb

   Phenotype in F1 - tough pods, bush-type growth

b. Proportion of F2 that are heterozygous for bush-type growth form = 5/8

c. Proportion of the F2 with tender pods =  1/4

d. Proportion of F2 that are heterozygous for growth form and have tender     pods = 1/8

Explanation:

Since the two traits are located on different chromosomes, they will independently assort during gametes formation. T is dominant over t and B is dominant over b.

Two true-breeding varieties were crossed at the beginning of the program:

TTBB   x   ttbb

All F1 plants will have the genotype TtBb with tough pods and bush-type growth form.

Advancing the cross to F2:

TtBb   x   TtBb

Progeny

1 TTBB   -   tough pods, bush-type

2 TTBb     -  tough pods, bush-type

2 TtBB    -   tough pods, bush-type

4 TtBb     -   tough pods, bush-type

1 TTbb     -    tough pods, climbing-type

2 Ttbb     -    tough pods, climbing-type

1 ttBB       -    tender pods, bush-type

2 ttBb     -      tender pods, bush-type

1 ttbb      -      tender pods, climbing-type

<em>Proportion of F2 that are heterozygous for bush-type growth form = 10/16 = 5/8</em>

<em>Proportion of the F2 with tender pods = 4/16 = 1/4</em>

<em>Proportion of F2 that are heterozygous for growth form and have tender pods = 2/16 = 1/8</em>

How do highly toxic elements like Na and Cl change when in compound form?
Helga [31]

Answer:

When a sodium atom transfers an electron to a chlorine atom, forming a sodium cation (Na+) and a chloride anion (Cl-), both ions have complete valence shells, and are energetically more stable. ... The reaction is extremely exothermic, producing a bright yellow light and a great deal of heat energy.

Answer:

0.972 J/g^{\circ}C

Explanation:

When the sample of hot metal is placed inside the water, the metal gives off heat to the water: the temperature of the metal decreases while the temperature of the water increases, until the two reach an equilibrium temperature.

The heat given off by the metal is equal (in magnitude) to the heat absorbed by the water, so we can write:

Q_m=Q_w\\m_m C_m (T_m-T_e) = m_w C_w (T_e-T_w)

where:

m_m=26.0 g is the mass of the metal

C_m is the specific heat of the metal

T_m=82.25^{\circ}C is the initial temperature of the metal

T_e=28.34^{\circ}C is the equilibrium temperature

m_w=75.0 g is the mass of the water

C_w=4.186 J/g^{\circ}C is the specific heat of water

T_w=24.00^{\circ}C is the initial temperature of the water

And solving for C_m, we find the specific heat of the metal:

C_m=\frac{m_w C_w (T_e-T_w)}{m_m(T_m-T_e)}=\frac{(75.0)(4.186)(28.34-24.00)}{(26.0)(82.25-28.34)}=0.972 J/g^{\circ}C

Answer:

I would tell them that natural selection is the different survival and reproduction of individuals due to differences in phenotype. hope that helped.
