True.An operon is a prokaryote. Its is a group of genes working together to make a specific protein.
Answer:
Ss (male) × Ss (female)
Explanation:
This question involves a single gene coding for hair length in guinea pigs. Based on the information in this question, the allele for short hair (S) is dominant over the allele for long hair (s). This means that a guinea pig will only be phenotypically long-haired if the genotype is "ss".
According to this question, Two short-haired guinea pigs are mated several times. Out of the 100 offsprings produced by this cross, 25 of them have long hair (recessive). This means that the phenotypic ratio of this cross is 3 short hair : 1 long hair i.e. 100 - 25 = 75 short hair. 75/25 = 3/1 = 3:1
To produce this phenotypic ratio, the parents must both be heterozygous (Ss) for the hair length gene.
Answer:
selective breeding; biotechnology
Explanation:
Selective breeding is a type of artificial selection that consists of crossing plants/animals with desirable and heritable phenotypic traits in order to increase the frequency of such traits in progeny. Selective breeding can be considered as one of the first biotechnological techniques applied by humans. In the past, the selective breeding technique has allowed obtaining domesticated animals (e.g., dogs from wild wolves) and domesticated crops from their wild ancestors (e.g., maize from its wild ancestor teosinte).
<u>Answer:</u>
<em>Farmers definitely use the information above to plan out their crops from one year to next.</em>
<u>Explanation:</u>
Nitrogen is an essential nutrient required for healthy plant growth. Corn is an important food crop and after its cultivation the soil is depleted of its nitrogen. <em>Cultivation of any crop on soils that lack nitrogen will not yield good result.</em>
Thus the nitrogen in the soil has to be replenished. Soybean is a crop that has symbiotic bacteria living on its roots. <em>This bacteria help in fixing atmospheric nitrogen.</em> Thus the nitrogen level will get replenished.
Thus cultivating soybean on the land in the period between <em>harvest and sowing of corn would be a healthy practice that increases yield and maintains soil health. </em>
