B) they work independently of one other
Answer: B) RNA
The mRNA is an RNA version of the gene that leaves the cell nucleus and moves to the cytoplasm where proteins are made.
Answer:
1/8
Explanation:
An individual must have all three dominant alleles to be red, in homozygosis or heterozygosis (R_E_D_).
<u>The parental cross was:</u>
RREEDD x rreedd
F1: RrEeDd
<u>The test cross</u> is between the RrEeDd indiviudals and homozygous recessive rreedd.
The genes assort independently, so we can use Mendel's law of segregation to predict separately for each gene the proportion of the offspring that will have the dominant alleles.
<h3><u>Rr x rr</u></h3>
1/2 Rr
1/2 rr
<h3><u>Ee x ee</u></h3>
1/2 Ee
1/2 ee
<h3><u>Dd x dd</u></h3>
1/2 Dd
1/2 dd
Genes are independent, so the probability of having a R_E_D_ offpsring is calculated by multiplying the individual probabilities of having a dominant allele for each gene:
1/2 (Rr) × 1/2 (Ee) × 1/2 (Dd)= 1/8
<span>If the parent's reproductive cells or gametes contain 12 chromosomes each, the number of chromosomes in the zygote is 24. Fertilization is the fusion of two haploid gametes and results in the creation of a diploid zygote. If two haploid gametes containing 12 chromosomes each fuse, the zygote will have 24 chromosomes (12 + 12 = 24).</span>
