Answer:
Base substitution mutation
Explanation:
Mutation is the alteration or change that occurs to the sequence of a gene caused by a mutagen (chemicals) or spontaneously-induced. Depending on how the mutation occurs, it is of different types. The mutation shown in this question is as follows:
ATCGGCTTAACG to ATCGGCTAAACG
This type of mutation is called SUBSTITUTION MUTATION. Substitution mutation is a type of mutation that involves the replacement of one or more nucleotide base by another. In this original sequence; ATCGGCTTAACG, the eight base T was replaced by base A in the sequence, hence, it is a substitution mutation.
Answer:
1/3 of black F2 progeny will be homozygous.
Explanation:
Here, BB = black coat color = true breeding dominant black strain
bb = white coat color = true breeding recessive white strain
When true breeding black and white guinea pigs are mated to give F1 progeny:
BB X bb = Bb ( all black guinea pigs )
When two of the F1 guinea pigs are mated to give F2 progeny:
Bb X Bb = BB, Bb, Bb, bb
F2 progeny has 3/4 progeny as black (BB and Bb) . Out of them 1/3 are homozygous and 2/3 are heterozygous.
Hence, 1/3 of black F2 progeny will be homozygous.
Answer:
•The relationship between the twist and the wild type flower in the first crossing is known as a COMPLETE DOMINANCE
•The relationship between the forked and the wild type flower in the second crossing is also known as a COMPLETE DOMINANCE
•The relationship between the pale and the wild type flower in the third crossing is known as an INCOMPLETE DOMINANCE
Explanation:
A complete dominance is characterised by having one of the genes (the dominant gene) in an heterozygous condition, completely masking the effect of the other (the recessive gene) of thesame allelic pair. E.g. if the genes in allelic is represented with Aa, "A" is said to completely dominate "a" if it does not allow "a" to Express itself phenotypically.
The heterozygous condition is always the result of the F1 generation
and the F2 generation of a Complete dominance is always characterised by a phenotypic ratio of 3:1 which is in line with the results gotten from the first crossing and the second crossing as stated in the question.
An complete dominance is characterised by having an intermediate progeny in the F1 generation which was evident in the result of the third crossing. Also a phenotypic ratio of 1:2:1 in the F2 generation is also a characteristic feature of an Incomplete dominance relationship which was also evident in the third crossing.
