Adenosine monophosphate (AMP) is a regulatory molecule in metabolic processes such as glycolysis and gluconeogenesis. For example, it stimulates the glycolytic enzyme phosphofructokinase, and therefore ATP production, and it inhibits the gluconeogenic enzyme fructose 1,6-bisphosphatase. Adenylate kinase catalyzes the reversible reaction shown here:
2ADP --> ATP + AMP
During periods of intense activity, when glycolysis is used in the generation of ATP, the reaction lies to the right, decreasing [ADP], generating ATP, and accumulating AMP. However, [ATP] is usually much greater than [ADP], and [ADP] is greater than [AMP].
Determine [AMP] when 3% of the ATP in a hypothetical cell is hydrolyzed to ADP.
<span>In this cell, the initial concentration of ATP is 265 ?M, and the total adenine nucleotide concentration (the concentration of ATP, ADP, and AMP) is 368 ?M. The equilibrium constant K is 0.82</span>

Answer:
The offsprings of this punnet square will be Dd, Dd, dd and dd in a ratio 1Dd : 1dd

Explanation:
This question involves a cross involving a single gene with alleles D and d where allele D is dominant over allele d i.e. D will mask the phenotypic expression of d in a heterozygous state.
This cross is between a heterozygous parent (Dd) and a homozygous recessive parent (dd). Parent Dd will produce gametes D and d while parent dd will produce gametes d and d.
Using these gametes in a punnet square, four possible offsprings with two distinct genotypes will be produced. The genotypes are: Dd and dd in a ratio 1:1
Hence, the possibility of having a heterozygous dominant offspring is 1/2 while the possibility of having a homozygous recessive offspring is also 1/2.
