In cats, the Dense pigment gene, D/d, codes for melanophilin, a protein involved in the transportation and deposition of pigment
SVETLANKA909090 [29]

Answer:

a. M_D_ : 9/16 Black furred individuals

b. M__dd : 3/16 gray furred individuals (1/16 MMdd + 2/16 Mmdd)

c. mmD_ : 3/16 Brow-furred individuals (1/16 mmDD + 2/16 mmDd)

d. mmdd: 1/16 gray furred individuals.

Explanation:

Available data:

  • Dense pigment gene, D, codes for melanophilin.
  • D allele dominant over d.
  • Gene M/m is responsible for the production of the pigment
  • M is dominant over m
  • If D is present, M/m is expressed
  • If dd is present, M/m is not expressed  
  • DDMM, DdMM, DDMm, DdMm --->Black fur
  • DDmm, Ddmm ---> Brown fur
  • ddMM, ddMm -----> Light gray fur

Cross: between two dihybrids

Parental)         DdMm     x     DdMm

Phenotype) Black-furred      Black-furred

Gametes) DM, Dm, dM, dm   DM, Dm, dM, dm

Punnet Square)    DM        Dm         dM          dm

             DM       DDMM    DDMm   DdMM   DdMm

             Dm       DDMm    DDmm   DdMm   Ddmm

             dM        DdMM    DdMm    ddMM   ddMm

             dm        DdMm    Ddmm    ddMm   ddmm

F1) 9/16 Black-furred individuals, D-M- (1/16 DDMM + 2/16 DDMm + 2/16    

                                                                 DdMM + 4/16 DdMm)

    3/16 Brown-furred individuals, D-mm ( 1/16 DDmm + 2/16 Ddmm)

    4/16 Gray-furred individuals, dd-- ( 1/16ddMM + 1/16 ddmm + 2/16 ddMm)

I have a few questions I'm having trouble with, maybe if you guys could please help me out, thank yoo~! ^w^
Sauron [17]

1)

2)Keep more fruits, low-fat dairy products (low-fat milk and low-fat yogurt), vegetables, and whole-grain foods at home and at work. Focus on adding healthy food to your diet, rather than just taking unhealthy foods away. Try to eat a family meal every day at the kitchen or dining table.

3)Biomacromolecules are large biological polymers, such as nucleic acids, proteins and carbohydrates, that are made up of monomers linked together. For example, proteins are composed of monomers called amino acids.

4)The First Law of Thermodynamics states that heat is a form of energy, and thermodynamic processes are therefore subject to the principle of conservation of energy. This means that heat energy cannot be created or destroyed

5)Cellular metabolism is the set of chemical reactions that occur in living organisms in order to maintain life. Cellular metabolism involves complex sequences of controlled biochemical reactions, better known as metabolic pathways.

6)Sugars, such as galactose, fructose, and glycogen, are catabolized into new products in order to enter the glycolytic pathway.
