The tailbone is a homologous structure.

Homologous structures is a <span>bone (or organ, but in this case, bone) that shows up in different animals in different animals (mice and human). It shows evidence of evolution by highlighting different similarities in different organisms that show that they may have descended from a common ancestor. It may have a very similar form or function in the different animals. </span>

Answer

The tailbone is a homologous structure

Explanation

A homologous structure is an organ/bone which is present in different animals (like in humans and the mice) that has common anatomic characteristics which shows that the organisms had a common ancestor. In this case, the organ can relate in functionality or formation.

Explain Mendel's law of independent assortment and how the 9:3:3:1 phenotypic ratio among the F2 of a dihybrid cross provides ev
GrogVix [38]

Answer:

Explanation:

Mendel's law of independent assortment state that two different genes assort independently in gamete formation.

To reach this conclusion, one has to do a dihybrid cross. This means that two genes responsible for different traits need to be analyzed at the same time.

1) Starting with a <u>parental generation of a cross between two pure lines</u> (homozygous for both genes) <u>with different traits</u>, a plant with yellow and round seeds (YYRR) and another with green and wrinkled seeds (yyrr). <u>The F1 will be phenotypically homogeneous (</u>yellow and round)<u>, and genotypically heterozygous (</u><u>YyRr</u><u>)</u>.

2) If the individuals from the F1 are crossed with one another,  we have to do a Punnett Square to determine the phenotypic ratio of the F2.

  • If the genes assort independently, the F1 individuals will produce their different gametes with the same probability. Each possible gamete will appear in a 1/4 proportion: YR, Yr, yR, yr.
  • The 9:3:3:1 ratio is a result of analyzing the possible phenotypes that result from the dihybrid cross.

See the attached image for an illustration of the crosses in each generation and the Punnett Square.
