Chordates, or members of phylum Chordata, possess a backbone.
Correct option(s):
(b) This muskmelon plant's genotype for the fruit taste gene is ff.
(c) This muskmelon plant is homozygous for the fruit taste gene.
A dominant allele is one that is capable of expressing itself even in the heterozygous condition and overshadows the effect of the recessive allele. It is usually denoted by a capital letter. Recessive allele on the contrary cannot express in presence of a dominant allele and is denoted by a small letter.
In the given case the fruit with a sour taste (phenotype) can have two possible genotypes (FF and Ff). The genotype of sweet taste is ff which is a homozygous condition.
Note: Your question is incomplete, probably your complete question is “In a group of muskmelon plants, some individuals have sour fruit and others have sweet fruit. in this group, the gene for the fruit taste trait has two alleles. the allele F is for sour fruit, and the allele f is for sweet fruit. a certain muskmelon plant from this group has sweet fruit. this plant has two alleles for sweet fruit. Choose the correct option:
(a) this muskmelon plant's genotype for the fruit taste trait is sweet fruit.
(b) this muskmelon plant's genotype for the fruit taste gene is ff.
(c) this muskmelon plant is homozygous for the fruit taste gene.”

Answer:
The Arctic tern is a medium-sized bird around 33–36 cm (13–14 in) from the tip of its beak to the tip of its tail. The wingspan is 76–85 cm (30–33 in). The weight is 86–127 g (3.0–4.5 oz.).
Explanation:
Answer:The term "disease" refers to conditions that impair normal tissue function. For example, cystic fibrosis, atherosclerosis, and measles are all considered diseases. However, there are fundamentally different causes for each of these diseases. Cystic fibrosis (CF) is due to a specific genotype that results in impaired transport of chloride ions across cell membranes, leading to the production of abnormally thick mucus. Thus, CF is most accurately called a genetic or metabolic disease. Atherosclerosis, which can lead to heart attacks and strokes, may be considered a disease of aging, because it typically becomes a problem later in life after plaques of cholesterol have built up and partially blocked arteries. In contrast, measles is an infectious disease because it occurs when an individual contracts an outside agent, the measles virus. An infectious disease is a disease that is caused by the invasion of a host by agents whose activities harm the host's tissues (that is, they cause disease) and can be transmitted to other individuals (that is, they are infectious).
