Answer:
Independent assortment
Explanation:
The type of inheritance displayed by the offspring is a simple <u>independent assortment inheritance according to Mendelian law.</u>
The result of crossing BbGg and bbgg is as follows (see the attached image)
<em>4 BbGg smooth and gray</em>
<em>4 Bbgg smooth and white</em>
<em>4 bbGg bumpy and gray</em>
<em>4 bbgg bumpy and white</em>
The phenotype ratio from the cross is 1:1:1:1 as far as the independent assortment is concerned.
Now, looking at the population of each phenotype from the cross
Smooth, gray 119
Smooth, white 123
Bumpy, gray 121
Bumpy, white 117
119:123:121:117 is approximately equal to 1:1:1:1.
Hence, the cross agrees with Mendel's law of independent assortment of genes.
Answer:
Statement 1: hypothesis
Statement 2: natural law
Statement 3: theory
Explanation:
1) An hypothesis is a proposed explanation for a phenomenon. It provides a suggested outcome. It needs to be tested through experimentation.
The statement says that an increase in sun exposure, increases the tomato plant growth, which is a suggested outcome and it can be tested.
2) Energy cannot be created or destroyed, is the first law of thermodynamics.
A scientific law is the description of an observed phenomenon. Without an explanation of the causes behind it.
3) A scientific theory is the explanation of a given phenomenon, based on a large body of empirical data.
This why after the pale and dark moths example, it says: Natural Selection had caused a change in the British moth population.
It is a theory that explains the phenomenon quoted.
Answer:
B) protein synthesis
Explanation:
An RNA codes for protein synthesis. A triplet of nucleotides/bases in RNA helps in adding an amino acid into the protein strand. This triplet of nucleotides is knwon as codon and helps in adding amino acid which is specific to it. For example, AUG triplet codes for methionine while UGG codes for tryptophan. The amino acids get added in protein strand unless a stop codon is reached. Triplets UAA, UAG & UGA are stop codons. Here it may be noted that initially a polypeptide chain is synthesized by RNA but the ultimate goal of making that polypeptide chain is protein synthesis.
