Answer:
similarity
Starch, cellulose,dextran and glycogen are all polymers of glucose
differences
monomer/glucose glycosidic bond branching
1.starch α glucose 1-4 and 1-6 branch and unbranced
amylose 1-4 unbranched
amylopectin 1-4 and 1-6 branched
2. dextran α glucose 1-6 branched
3. cellulose β glucose 1-4 unbranched, linear
4. glycogen α glucose 1-4 and 1-6 branched (shorter
branches than starch)
Enzyme: amlase acts on starch and cellulase acts on cellulose as they are specific for their substrates.
Explanation:
Starch: Consists of both branched amylopectin and unbranched amylose
Enzymes: Enzymes are specific as the gulcose molecule in starch is α and in cellulose is β which differ in their position of hydroxyl groups at anomeric carbon, their structures differ so they form different bonds. Active sites of enzymes can act only on specific bonds a sthey can fit to their specific substrates.
Explanation:
- Dull fruit (D) is dominant over glossy (d) fruit.
- Orange friut (R) is dominant over cream fruit (r).
- Bitter cotyledon (B) is dominant over non-bitter cotyledons (b).
The three genes are independent.
<h3>a)</h3>
- A plant homozygous for dull, orange fruit and bitter cotyledons has the genotype <em>DDRRBB</em><em>.</em>
- A plant homozygous for glossy, cream fruit and non-bitter cotyledons has the genotype <em>ddrrbb</em>.
100% of the F1 will have dull, orange fruit and bitter cotyledons and will be heterozygous for all genes: <em>DdRrBb</em>.
<u>The F2 will have 8 possible phenotypes:</u>
- 27 D_R_B dull, orange fruit and bitter cotyledons
- 9 D_R_bb dull, orange fruit and non-bitter cotyledons
- 9 D_rrB_ dull, cream fruit and bitter cotyledons
- 3 D_rrbb dull, cream fruit and non-bitter cotyledons
- 9 ddR_B_ glossy, orange fruit and bitter cotyledons
- 3 ddR_bb glossy, orange fruit and non-bitter cotyledons
- 3 ddrrB_ glossy, cream fruit and bitter cotyledons
- 1 ddrrbb glossy, cream fruit and non-bitter cotyledons
<h3>b)</h3>
An F1 plant is crossed with a plant that has glossy, cream fruit and non-bitter cotyledons.
<h3>
DdRrBb x ddrrbb </h3>
The F1 individual can produce 8 types of gametes: DRB, DRb, DrB, Drb, dRB, dRb, drB and drb. The cream fruit and non-bitter cotyledons individual can only produce drb gametes. This cross also produces a progeny with the following genotypes and phenotypic proportions:
- 8 DdRrBb dull, orange fruit and bitter cotyledons
- 8 DdRrbb dull, orange fruit and non-bitter cotyledons
- 8 DdrrBb dull, cream fruit and bitter cotyledons
- 8 Ddrrbb dull, cream fruit and non-bitter cotyledons
- 8 ddRrBb glossy, orange fruit and bitter cotyledons
- 8 ddRrbb glossy, orange fruit and non-bitter cotyledons
- 8 ddrrBb glossy, cream fruit and bitter cotyledons
- 8 ddrrbb glossy, cream fruit and non-bitter cotyledons
