Answer:
See the answer below
Explanation:
<em>Genotype is the genetic composition of organisms and a gene is made up of two alleles.</em>
a) Since the allele for black is B, <u>the genotype for black chickens would be BB. </u>
b) Since the allele for white is W, <u>the genotype for white chickens would be WW.</u>
c) Since erminette color is heterozygous,<u> the genotype would be BW.</u>
d) Two erminette were crossed:
BW x BW
BB BW BW WW
i. <em>Probability of having black chick (BB) </em>= 1/4
ii. <em>Probability of having a white chick (WW)</em> = 1/4
iii. <em>Probability of having erminette chicken (BW)</em> = 1/2
Volcanic eruptions spew alot of carbon dioxide and sulphur dioxide into the atmosphere. These gases when mixed with rain and run into oceans increase their pH. Additionally, these gases are greenhouse gases that increases atmospheric temperatures and consequently those of the seas and oceans.
Low pH and high temperatures kill marine life.
Answer:
Explanation:
<em>Let the ability to break down the red color in beets be represented by the allele </em><em>B</em><em>. The inability would be represented by the allele </em><em>b</em><em>.</em>
A nonsecretor's genotype would be BB or Bb while a secretor's genotype would be bb.
A nonsecretor woman with a secretor father would be a carrier with genotype Bb. A nonsecretor man who in a previous marriage had a secretor daughter would also be a carrier with genotype Bb. If the two marries:
<em>Bb x Bb</em>
<em> BB 2Bb bb</em>
1.
(a) probability of their first child will be a secretor girl = probability of having a girl and being a secretor.
Probability of having a girl = 1/2
Probability of being a secretor = 1/4
<em>probability of their first child will be a secretor girl</em> = 1/2 x 1/4 = 1/8
(b) Probability of their first child being a nonsecretor girl = probability of having a girl and being a nonsecretor.
Probability of having a girl = 1/2
Probability of being a nonsecretor = 3/4
<em>Probability of their first child being a nonsecretor girl = probability of having a girl and being a nonsecretor</em> = 1/2 x 3/4 = 3/8
2. <em>Probability that their first two children will be nonsecretors of either sex = probability of their first being a nonsecretor and of either sex and probability of their second being a nonsecretor and of either sex.</em>
= 3/4 x 3/4 = 9/16
Answer:
8900 CFU/mL
Explanation:
Colony Forming Units (CFU) is a value that indicates the degree of microbiological contamination of an environment. It expresses the relative number of microorganisms of a given taxon in a volume of one cubic meter of water.
UFC is the minimum number of separable cells on the surface, or inside, of a semi-solid agar medium that results in the development of a visible colony of the order of tens of millions of descending cells. The CFUs can be pairs, chains or clusters, as well as individual cells. Colony forming unit.
Calculation
Colonies * Dilution = CFU/mL
89 * (100/ 1 mL) = CFU/mL
8900 CFU/mL
Prokaryotic cells lack a defined nucleus, but have a region in the cell, termed the nucleoid, in which a single chromosomal, circular, double-stranded DNA molecule is located.
