Both male and female rats have genotype Bb. Based on the Punnett square, Carol concluded that the phenotypic ratio of the monohy

brid cross is 2:1:1. What mistake did Carol make? A) The ratio should be 2:1 B) The ratio should be 3:1 C) The ratio should be 2:1:1 D) The ratio should be 1:1:1:1

<u>Answer</u>: The ratio should be 3:1.

<u>Explanation</u>:

When the male and female rates with genotype Bb are crossed we get,

Bb X Bb ----> BB Bb Bb bb

  • Since B is dominant over b, the offsprings with genotype BB and Bb will have dominant phenotype and the ones with bb will have recessive phenotype.
  • Since 3 offsprings have dominant phenotype as seen from the cross (One BB and 2 Bb) and one has a recessive phenotype (bb) the phenotypic ratio would be 3: 1.

Construct a concept map that shows how a population of bacteria can develop resistance to antibiotics.
Vsevolod [243]

The attached picture shows how bacteria gain antibiotic resistance. Firstly, a few individuals attain a beneficial mutation in their genetic material that accords them the capability to survive in an antibiotic. The individuals are hence able to survive and reproduce more than those individuals without the mutation. There is, therefore, a genetic shift in the population in favor of the resistant genotype. After generations, the whole population becomes antibiotic resistant.

In C3 plants the conservation of water promotes _____.
bija089 [108]

Answer:

The correct answer is d. photorespiration

Explanation:

In the C3 plant, the Rubisco enzyme is important that fix CO2 into organic molecule by binding with CO2. Rubisco can also bind to oxygen when the oxygen concentration increases in cells which leads to the loss of fixed CO2  and waste of energy which is called photorespiration.

So when stomata are open CO2 comes in and O2 goes out of the cell which maintains the high CO2 concentration in the cell but during hot days C3 plants close stomata to prevent water loss.  

So closing of stomata decrease the intake of CO2 and increase the oxygen concentration inside the cell. So in increased temperature and high oxygen concentration, the rubisco enzymes bind to O2 and promote photorespiration.
