B describes any type of plant.

C is too vague to even describe a plant.

D (the correct answer) describes an angiosperm (flowering plant). After double fertilization, angiosperms form a fruit over the ovulary of the plant, where the seeds are located.

An insertion mutation example

Klio2033 [76]

Insertion mutations can be small, like in the CAGTC example in which only one nucleotide was inserted, or they can be large, with many nucleotides being added. If the number of bases inserted is not a multiple of three, then the insertion mutation is also considered a frameshift mutation.

Hope this helps :D

3. There is a gene that affects pea pod color and has two alleles: G = yellow and g = green. There is another gene that affects

Lena [83]

A. Mendel in his experiments used two true breeding plants that only express one particular trait. He would chose plants with different versions of the trait and cross pollinate them. So, in this case, Mendel’ s P generation would be:

P: GGWW x ggww

B. The possible gametes produced by these first or original parent plants (GGWW and ggww genotypes of the parents) are:

GW and gw. When an organism makes gametes, each gamete receives just one copy of the gene, which is selected randomly (Mendel’s law of segregation).

C. If the gametes GW and gw are joined, the genotype in the offspring would be GgWw. This is dihybrid organism because it is heterozygous (have two different allelss, one recessive, one dominant) at two different genetic loci, G and W. The offspring represents the F1 generation.

D. If the individuals with the genotype GgWw are crossed with the individuals with the same genotype (GgWw), the possible gametes are GW, Gw, gW, gw. The possible genotypes for the F2 generation are: GGWW, GGWw, GgWW, GgWw, GGww, Ggww, ggWW, ggWw and ggww. There are nine different genorypes. The genotypic ratio is 1:2:2:1:4:1:2:2:1.

E. F2 generation of offspring of this dihybrid cross has a 9:3:3:1 phenotype ratio. Mendel did similar experiment with his plants and conluded that the pairs of traits in the parental generation (P generation) sorted independently from one another, from one generation to the next.

What is the difference between a plant cell and an animal cell?

Tom [10]

Structurally, plant and animal cells are very similar because they are both eukaryotic cells. Beyond size, the main structural differences between plant and animal cells lie in a few additional structures found in plant cells. These structures include: chloroplasts, the cell wall, and vacuoles.
