Answer:

Bb and Bb

Explanation:

Let B be the allele of a black color;  &

Let b be the allele of a white color

Allele B is dominant over allele b, and as such it masks the expression of allele b

If we have a cross between two heterozygous individuals

i.e Bb × Bb

we have:

               B                b

B              BB             Bb

b              Bb              bb

From above, Phenotypically;

we have the following offspring:

BB  ;   one normal black color

2 Bb:  two heterozygous for black color

bb : one white color

The color ratio is in the ratio of 3 black :1 white  which is synonymous to 10 black : 3 white

So; we can therefore conclude that the genotype of the parents are :

Bb and Bb

Sophie [7]

Answer:

The correct statements are C The pH is accurate but the solution will have excess salt. D The pH is accurate but the concentration of Tris will be incorrect

Explanation:

As the pH is finally maintained at 7 the pH for the buffer solution will be accurate but excess salt will be produced due to use of Both NaOH and HCl to make up the to 7.

As more volume of water is required at final step to make up the volume the concentration of tris will be incorrect.

What is the difference between hydrophobic and hydrophilic molecules
Jet001 [13]
The hydrophilic molecules are the polar molecules which establishes the hydrogen bonding with the water molecules. Hence the hydrophilic molecules are water loving molecules. The hydrophobic molecules are unable to establish any hydrogen bonding with the water molecules. Hence the hydrophobic molecules are water repellent molecules.

Mendel determined that for a given character(i.e. pea seed shape) an individual has two factors that these can exist in two form
lions [1.4K]

Answer:

a. different alleles of the seed shape gene.

Explanation:

Mendel crossed different varieties of pea plants and he observed how phenotypic traits passed to the progeny. From these experiments, Mendel formulated the 'First Law of Segregation', where he observed that traits may exist in pairs that segregate (separate) at meiosis. During meiosis, i.e., gamete formation, these two factors separate from each other, thereby each gamete has the same probability of receiving either factor. Nowadays, we know that these two factors represent two different gene variants or 'alleles' for a given gene <em>locus</em>. Alleles can be classified into dominant or recessive as in the example above described, where the R factor (round) dominates on the r factor (wrinkled) to determine the seed shape.
