The human sperm and eggs contain 23 chromosomes. The type of cell division that produces gametes with half the normal chromosome number is called meiosis. It is used to produce cells for repair and asexual reproduction. Gametes do contain different genetic information to each other and to the parent cell.
This part of the brain is responsible for coordinating voluntary movements. It is also responsible for a number of functions including motor skills such as balance, coordination, and posture.
Answer: The genotype ratio of offsprings of a cross between one homozygous tall plant and one heterozygous tall plant is 2TT:2Tt
The phenotype ratio is that all offsprings will be tall.
The genotype ratio of a cross between two heterozygous red flowers is 1RR:2Rr:2rr. The phenotype ratio is 3 Red flowers: 1 white flower.
Explanation: From the information given, tall is dominant and short is recessive while red is dominant and white is recessive.
Let T represent the allele for tall height, t represent the allele for short height, R represent allele for red flowers and r represent allele for white flowers.
The genotype of a homozygous tall plant is TT, the genotype of a heterozygous tall plant is Tt, the genotype of a heterozygous red flowered plant is Rr.
The possible genotypes of offsprings of a cross between one homozygous tall plant and one heterozygous tall plant are TT and Tt.
Tt will manifest outwardly as tall because T is dominant over t. Therefore, all the offsprings will be tall.
The possible genotypes of a cross between two heterozygous red flowers are RR, Rr and rr. RR will manifest as red, Rr will also manifest as red because R is dominant to r while rr will manifest as white because white allele (r) is recessive. Therefore 3 plants will be red-flowered while 1 plant will be white flowered.
See the attached punnet squares for details of the cross.
The answer is actually 4.4 billion years, but i guess you can estimate to 4.5
Remember that organisms within a particular environment all adapt in a simultaneous basis depending on the type of environment presented within them. This is part of Charles Darwin's theory of evolution when he observed animals in the Galapagos island.
This survival instinct of the frog can be of disadvantage to it because other animals might be able to recognize their calls due to familiarity of this naturally occurring trait that they do. The frogs can now be more prone to predator attacks within its environment.
