A protozoan that divides to form two daughter cells just like itself would be undergoing binary fission.

Binary fission is a type of asexual reproduction which usually occurs in some single-celled organisms (protozoan) such as amoeba, and in prokaryotes such as bacteria. In the process of binary fission, DNA replication, and segregation takes place at the same time. The genetic material (DNA) of an organism is duplicated, and it then divides into two parts (forming two genetically identical daughter cells), and each new organism receives one copy of DNA.

In garden peas, one pair of alleles controls the height of the plant, and a second pair of alleles controls flower color. The al

Lerok [7]

Answer:

The parent's genotypes are:

Ddpp - tall, white parent

ddPp - dwarf, purple parent.

Explanation:

This question involves two different genes coding for height and flower color in pea plants. The alleles for tallness (D) and purple color (P) are dominant over the alleles for dwarfness (d) and white color (p) respectively.

According to this question, a tall plant with white flowers is crossed with a dwarf plant with purple flowers to produce the following proportion of offsprings: 1/4 tall purple, 1/4 tall white, 1/4 dwarf purple, and 1/4 dwarf white.

Since some of the offsprings contain recessive alleles for both or either genes, the dominant traits of the parent is controlled by an heterozygous genotype. This means that the tall plant with white flowers has a genotype: Ddpp while the dwarf plant with purple flowers has the genotype: ddPp. In a cross between Ddpp × ddPp, 1/4 of each combination of alleles is produced in the offsprings (see punnet square in the attachment).

Lilit [14]

Answer:

Different colour occur due to heterozygous nature.

Explanation:

Most of the puppies just like parents because the black colour gene or allele is dominant over other colour allele whereas other colour puppies also formed due to presence of heterozygous type of alleles. Other colour occurs due to appearance of recessive allele in the physique of the offspring or formation of hybrids occurs which causes colour other than black and white in the offspring. In the F1 generation all the offspring resembles to the male parent but after this generation some offspring resembles to male, some are hybrids and other resembles to female.
