It should be 16% for the recessive aa genotype.

In pea plants, the allele for inflated pod seed, I, is dominant over the allele for constricted pod seed, i. The Punnett square
zubka84 [21]

Answer:

<em>The offspring which carries the allele II will be homozygous dominant.</em>

Explanation:

A dominant trait can be described as a trait which masks the effect of a recessive trait. A recessive trait can be described as a trait which gets masked by the dominant trait.

A homozygous dominant trait occurs when both the alleles for the gen are dominant. A heterozygous dominant trait occurs when one allele is dominant and the other is recessive for the trait.  

Hence, a homozygous dominant trait will carry the alleles II.

A gene with the sequence ATTCATTCA underwent duplication after a few generations. Which sequence represents this gene after the
Ratling [72]

Answer:

The sequence would be <u>ATTCATTCA</u>.

Explanation:

Usually, when a sequence is duplicated, one of them becomes a non-coding. It's just like a computer. There can only be one specific file, or else a duplicated one will just replace the existing one, if you allow the file to do so. Same with DNA. This is why most of our DNA have no function and why we lost genetic abilities such as being able to produce our own Vitamin C.

So instead of the new gene being ATTCATTCAATTCATTCA, it's simply ATTCATTCA. You simply cannot have duplicates, just like computer files. I wish I could share an amazing video by PBS Eons giving a great explanation about genes and stuff, but sadly Brainly doesn't like such stuff, so just <em>search up in ㄚㄖㄩㄒㄩ乃乇 (ebuTouY) "genes we lost along the way" and it should be the first video that pops out.</em> Trust me, it's a great video, it's much better than my explanation.

Explain how the terms oxidation and reduction apply even when there is only a partial shift of electrons between atoms linked by
aliina [53]

Explanation:

In a covalent bond, there is sharing of the donated electron by two atomic species having very small electronegative differences between them.

Oxidation is the loss of electrons by a specie and it usually lead to an increase in oxidation number.

Reduction is the gain of electrons by a specie. It leads to a lower oxidation number.

Since there is no actual loss of gain of electrons in a covalent body, the electronegativiy is at work.

Electronegativity is the ability of a specie to draw the shared electrons more to itself in a covalent bond.

  • Between two atoms bonded covalently, the more electronegative specie draws the electrons closer.
  • This leaves a partial negative charge on it.
  • The other electron then becomes partially positively charged.
  • We can then say, the more electronegative specie undergoes reduction.
  • The less electronegative one undergoes oxidation.
