The answer is D. Species A will have fewer phenotypes.
Alleles are alternative forms of a gene. In species A, the leaf color is controlled by two alleles, for example, P and Q. They will have three possible genotypes - PP, PQ, and QQ. Three different genotypes give maximum three phenotypes.In species B, leaf color is controlled by three alleles, for example, L, M, and N. They will have six different genotypes - LL, LM, LN, MM, MN, and NN. Six different genotypes give maximum 6 phenotypes.

What are the genotypic differences between F-, F+ and Hfr cells?
Kitty [74]

Answer:

The fertility factor or the F factor signifies a plasmid in some bacteria, which allows the conduction of genetic substance from a donor cell to the recipient by the process of conjugation, leading to recombination.  

The genotypic difference between the F- cells, F+ cells, and the Hfr cells are that the F- cells are devoid of the F factor, the F+ cells possess autonomous F factor, that is, a segment of DNA, which can replicate autonomously in the cell. In case of Hfr, the F factor is integrated into its chromosomal DNA, thus, they carry an integrated F factor.

What understanding of gene expression supports medical advice given to women to avoid consumption of alcohol during pregnancy
Brrunno [24]

Answer:

The understanding that alcohol is a potent teratogenic agent -capable of affecting the genetic expression of a developing embryo and fetus- is sufficient to support medical advice given to women to avoid consumption of alcohol during pregnancy.

Explanation:

A teratogen is a substance capable of affecting genetic expression - causing alteration and lack of regulation of the genes responsible for the form and function of a living being - and organ formation.

<u>Alcohol is a powerful teratogen</u>, responsible for fetal alcohol spectrum disorder, which includes disorder in the proper expression of genes and abnormal development of organs such as the heart, brain and limbs.

When a doctor suggests that a woman does not consume alcohol during pregnancy, he does so to prevent alterations that this product may cause in a fetus or embryo, as well as the death before birth.
