In flies, small wings (s) is recessive to normal wings (S). If a cross between two flies produces 8 small wing offspring and 26

normal wing offspring, what are the most likely genotypes of the parents

Vikentia [17]3 years ago

Answer:

The most likely genotypes of the parents is Ss and Ss. This would produce approximately three times the amount of small wings flies.

Explanation:

Small wings (s) is recessive to normal wings (S) in flies. Thus, small wings will be inherited in the recessive condition as ss and the normal wings can be inherited as SS or Ss.

A cross that will produce about three times the amount of the recessive allele which is the small wings is between

        two heterozygote flies

       Ss  x    Ss

    SS   Ss   Ss   ss

            3/4        1/4

The most likely genotypes of the parents is Ss and Ss. This would produce approximately three times the amount of small wings flies.

 3/4 of 34  will give an approximate of 26 and 1/4 of 34 will give an approximate of 8.

Missy spencer was given penicillin for tonsillitis. she developed a severe life-threatening allergic (hypersensitivity) reaction
KatRina [158]

The reaction of which Missy has experience that is a severe and life threatening allergic reaction due to penicillin is anaphylactic reaction, it could be classified as the a serious and life threatening in terms of having allergic reaction for if not treated immediately, it could cause death to the individual who has experience this reaction. This could be triggered from either medications, food in which an individual has consumed and insect stings such as from bees. Missy’s allergic reaction must have triggered because of the penicillin that she has consumed where in, she does not know that she is allergic to the medication, having her to experience a life threatening allergic reaction to the penicillin.

DNA has two strands. If the sequence of nucleotides of one strand was known, is it possible to use that information to determine
yanalaym [24]

It is possible to use the information of the nucleotide sequence of one strand to determine the sequence of the other strand.

  • Deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) is a biological molecule with two strands. Each strand is made up of a sequence of nucleotides. The DNA nucleotides are Adenine (A), Cytosine (C), Guanine (G) and Thymine (T).

  • In a DNA molecule, Adenine forms an hydrogen bond with Thymine i.e. A-T, while Guanine forms an hydrogen bond with Cytosine i.e. G-C.

  • Therefore, it is possible to use the information of the nucleotide sequence of one strand to determine the sequence of the other strand. For example, a strand with ATGCGTACGAT will form the following sequence: TACGCATGCTA
