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>

What process releases the least ATP per molecule of glucose for immediate cell use?
Nataliya [291]

Answer:

Anaerobic respiration

Explanation:

Anaerobic respiration occurs releasing the ATP per molecule of glucose for immediate use by the cell. Anaerobic respiration is carried out in absence of oxygen. There are two forms of fermentation, alcoholic and lactic acid fermentation. In humans, lactic acid fermentation occurs in muscle cells during intense muscular activity.

Many different organisms live in Amanda’s garden. The diagram shows a simple food web of some of the organisms in her garden.
Alex787 [66]

Answer:

The snakes keep the mice from overpopulating, which could deplete their resources.

Explanation:

The mice and the moles are not competing against each other as they feed on different food. The problem is that if the mice population is not regulated, their very quick reproduction will cause overpopulation in very short space of time. The more mice there will be , the more food will be needed, so very soon the resources will be depleted, resulting in collapse of the mice population. This is where the snakes come in action, as they eat mice, so they are the ones that control and keep their population stable, thus not allowing the mice to overpopulate the area and destroy themselves.

Caitlyn has a supracondylar distal humerus fracture, a true surgical emergency. besides the humerus, what other bones articulate
lara31 [8.8K]
The elbow (or olecranon joint) is the part of the upper limb between the arm and forearm. This articulation includes the region of the "elbow fold" (or ulnar fossa). It is a synovial joint complex of the upper human limb connecting the arm to the forearm. He thus unites three bones between them: the radius, the ulna and the humerus.

<span>The ulna is a long bone of the forearm, located at its inner side while the radius, the second bone of the forearm, is located at the level of the outer part (the same side of the thumb)</span>
