You would have a 3 out of 4 chance of getting a purple flower if purple is the dominant trait.

Answer:

A heterozygous trait contains two different allelic forms of a gene in which one is a dominant allele and one is recessive allele. If there is a crossing between two plants that are heterozygous for their trait then the probability of expression of the dominant allele is 3/4.

So according to this question plants are heterozygous that means the genes would be like Pp and Pp. Here P indicates the purple color allele which is dominant and p indicates recessive white color allele.

Therefore cross between these two will give genotypes PP, Pp Pp, and pp. So according to the law of dominance that says dominant allele will express itself, therefore, probability of purple-flowered offspring is 3/4 because 3 out of four genotypes have the dominant allele.

ohaa [14]
<h2><u>Answer:</u></h2>

The 4 principle requirements for microorganisms survival are:

1) Food

2) Moisture

3) Warmth

4) Time

There are microscopic organisms that can develop in cold temperatures and some that blossom with warm temperatures.

A few bacteria go after the other microscopic organisms for survival. Different microscopic organisms get by getting supplements from dead items. Some microorganisms use photosynthesis to make their nourishment.

Like plants, human beings have similarities and differences. God gave us talents which He wants us to use. What can you do best?
asambeis [7]
Well, humans have talents. Whether those talents are god given is up for debate. I'd argue those talents are a result of millions of years of evolution and natural selection as proven by Charles Darwin, not given by an unproven deity, but I don't know what school year you are in so you may not have escaped the years where religion is forced upon you :P

Anyway, if you're being asked this question, what do <em>you </em>like doing? I'd say my talent lies in science, as I was the top performing physicist throughout my gcse years, and I love the subject. In my opinion what you do best is what you love doing most, as if you have a passion for something it will almost always be your best talent. I can't answer that question for you.

Sharing this talent to others is basically teaching and also spreading your passion for your talent to others. They probably won't ever be as good as you because they will have their own talents and passions, but you can give them an insight into it by teaching them what you know and encouraging them to invest some time into it.
