B. They are found in living things.

<span>This is because proteins, carbohydrates and lipids store energy but not nucleic acids. On the other hand, nucleic acids store and transfer genetic information but not the rest of the molecules. Hence, the only thing applicable to all four is that they are found in living organisms</span>

Suppose a diploid mosquito is completely heterozygous at all 6 of its chromosomes (2n = 6). How many different combinations of g

Ket [755]

Answer:

8 different combinations of gametes can be produced by this mosquito, assuming no homologous recombination between chromosomes

Explanation:

The mosquito has 6 chromosomes. This means that means it has 3 pairs of homologous chromosomes. Basically, we can assume the number of different gametes by 2 to the power of 3 as their are 3 homologous pairs. This means 2×2×2 which will be equal to the amount of eight. Hence, eight different combination of gametes will be produced.

In squash, yellow seeds are dominant over green seeds. If two heterozygous yellow seed squash were crossed, what are the genotyp

Umnica [9.8K]

Answer:

The result of cross two squashes with yellow seeds is an offspring of squash with green seeds -dominant caracter- heterozygous and yellow seeds squashes in a genotype proportion 1:2:1 and phenotype proportion 3:1

Explanation:

The cross of two heterozygous individuals for a characteristic results in an offspring that will have both characteristics in pure and heterozygous form. It is a cross monohybrid which complies with the principle of independent segregation exposed by Mendel.

For the characteristic "seed color" the green color would be G and yellow represented as g.

At the cross of two heterozygous squashs:

- Parents: Gg X Gg

- <u>Punnett's Square</u>:

Alleles G g

G GG Gg

g Gg gg

Offspring:

A pumpkin of green seeds GG (25%)
Two pumpkins of green heterozygous seeds Gg (50%)
One pumpkin of yellow seeds gg (25%)

Genotype proportion 1:2:1

Phenotype proportion 3:1
