PMAT
Prophase - chromosome form
Metaphase - chromosomes align at middle
Anaphase - chromatids pull apart
Telophase - two nuclei
They are at two opposite poles during Anaphase
(Carnivorous) They don't rely as much on the mechanical breakdown of foods in the mouth as much as they usually eat their prey whole. They also have U-shaped stomachs.
They regurgitate indigestible things (e.g. Large Bones)
They have shorter, spiralling intestines, but this means it also has a large surface area.
Answer:
a) The genes present on separate chromosomes exhibit indepedent assortment.
b) The genotype of tall and purple flower parent= TTPp
The genotype of short and purple flower parent: ttPp
Explanation:
a) In a dihybrid cross, if the genes are present on the same chromosome, they will not exhibit independent assortment. The genes present on the same chromosome are called linked genes. Linked genes are inherited together. The absence of independent assortment of a linked gene gives more of parental types in F2 progeny. Therefore, if genes are not present on a separate chromosome, Mendel’s ratios deviate.
b) Alleles for tallness and purple flower are dominant. In the progeny, all the plants are tall. This means that the dominant tall plant is homozygous. With respect to flower color, the trait exhibits segregation of dominant and recessive alleles and both purple and white flower progeny are obtained. This makes both the plants heterozygous for the flower color gene.
The genotype of tall and purple flower parent= TTPp
The genotype of short and purple flower parent: ttPp
