In garden peas, long stems are dominant to short stems, and yellow seeds are dominants to green seeds, too long/yellow pea plant

Lera25 [3.4K]

Answer:

A) 300

B) 3:1

C) 9 long yellow : 3 long green : 3 short yellow : 1 short green

Explanation:

Long stems (L_) are dominant to short stems (ll)

Yellow seeds (Y_) are dominant to green seeds (yy)

We interbred pea plants with long stems and yellow seeds (L_Y_), but they had a short green parent (llyy) that could have only produced ly gametes, so our plants are heterozygous LlYy.

C) We interbred them LlYy x LlYy. If the two genes are unlinked, this is a typical dihybrid cross and from Mendel's law of independent assortment we know that the offspring will have the following phenotypic ratios:

9/16 L_Y_ (Long, yellow)
3/16 L_yy (Long, green)
3/16 llY_ (short, yellow)
1/16 llyy (short, green)

A) 3/16 × 1600 = 300 plants will be long and green.

9/16 + 3/16 = 12/16= 3/4 plants will be yellow;

3/16 + 1/16 = 4/16= 1/4 plants will be green.

The ratio will be 3 yellow : 1 green

Modern europeans may have acquired genes that helped them adapt to the cold and absorb more vitamin d through interbreeding with

notsponge [240]

Around 100,000 years ago there was a second hominine species closely related to modern humans, Homo neanderthalensis, or commonly called the Neanderthal. Recent studies of neanderthal DNA have shown that there is 3-4% of their genes in modern humans outside of Africa, mostly from Europe, including the ones for adapting to the cold and vitamin D absorption.

If a cat normally has 38 chromosomes in its somatic (body) cells, how many chromosomes will be in its gametes? a. 76 b. none of

Keith_Richards [23]

Each gamete has half the number of chromosomes of the somatic cell. Hence, cats' gametes will have 19 chromosomes. Option C.

<h3>What are the type of cells in the organism?</h3>

The types of cells in the organism are somatic and germ cells.

Both the somatic and germ cells go through mitosis producing two daughter cells with the same genetic dotation.

Somatic cells are any cell in the body except sperm and egg cells. They are diploid, meaning they contain two chromosome sets, each one inherited from each parent.

Germ cells are diploid reproductive cells. They suffer mitosis to form more sexual cells, and a few suffer meiosis to produce haploid gametes. Each germ cell produces 4 haploid gametes.

Each gamete has half the number of chromosomes of the somatic cell. Hence, cats' gametes will have 19 chromosomes. Option C.
