You have 3 turtles, each with a mutation that causes them to have a strange polka dotted pattern on their shells. Assume all 3 m

utations are homozygous recessive. You discover that turtle 1 and turtle 3 have mutations in the same gene, while turtle 1 and turtle 2 have mutations in different genes.What phenotype would you expect from crosses between:

Answer:

Cross between 1 and turtle 3 produces offspring with same polka pattern as parents have.

Similarly Cross between 1 and turtle 2 produces no strange polka pattern.

Explanation:

As all three turtles have homozygous mutation. These mutations causes the polka dotted pattern on shells.

Turtle 1 and Turtle 3 both have mutation on same gene so they also have same polka dotted pattern. On crossing these two Turtles produce same polka dotted phenotype pattern.

Turtle 1 and Turtle 2 have mutations on different genes. These different genes control different characters of shell pattern hence crossing between Turtle 1 and turtle 2 produces no strange polka dotted pattern as strange polka dotted pattern always appears in homozygus repressive condition. Genes during crossing not pass in pair hence offspring contain one mutant allele of gene coming from one turtle and one normal allele of gene coming from other turtle.

<u>Results</u>

Cross between 1 and turtle 3 produces offspring with same polka pattern as parents have.

Similarly Cross between 1 and turtle 2 produces no strange polka pattern.

Why are dominant alleles not necessarily more common than recessive alleles?
marta [7]
It all depends on the trait. If the dominant is more common that the recessive trait then it is more likely to a dominant trait in the gene pool. But if the recessive trait is more common in the gene pool then you will have a recessive trait. Does this make sense? Let me know if I'm right!

The bacteria can chemically combine nitrogen with hydrogen to form ammonia (NH3). This combining process is called nitrogen fixa
kifflom [539]

Bacteria

Explanation:

Nitrification fixation takes place by nitrogen-fixing bacteria like Azotobacter, Klebsiella, Bacillus etc which convert atmospheric nitrogen gas into fixed-nitrogen compounds like nitrates or ammonium ions for the plants to readily absorb.

The nitrogen fixing bacteria can be free-living like cyanobacteria or live with symbiotic relationship with plants and fungi.

The chemical conversion of di-nitrogen to ammonia takes place with the help of enzymes like nitrogenase in combination with leghahemoglobin, a protein through a reduction reaction.
