Answer:
B) The completely-plated phenotype is controlled by a dominant allele of a single gene.
Explanation:
<em>The results from the breeding experiment showed that the completely-plated phenotype is controlled by a dominant allele of a single gene because it followed Mendelian pattern of inheritance.</em>
According to Mendel, in a dominant/recessive gene situation, the recessive gene do not manifest physically in F1 generation and at F2, the phenotypic ratio of dominant to recessive gene is usually 3:1.
For example, assuming the completely-plated gene is represented by P and the alternate form (low-plated) by p.
At F1: PP x pp
Progeny: all Pp, completely-plated stickleback in appearance.
At F2: Pp x Pp
Progeny: PP, Pp, Pp, and pp
3/4 of the progeny have completely-plated appearance while 1/4 have low-plated appearance. The ratio of completely-plated to low-plated is 3:1.
The correct option is B.
Answer:
Explanation:
Duchenne muscular dystrophy acts as a X-linked recessive disease. Which means the gene sits on the X chromosome, and you need two bad copies to show disease (for females) and one bad copy (to show in males).
Now from our knowledge, we know males are XY and females are XX. Males have only one copy of the X chromosome from their mother and one copy of the Y chromosome from their father, thus if they get the mutated version of the gene that causes this disease, they will get the disease. However, if a female has a mutated version of gene on one of the X chromosome, the other X chromosome could have a normal gene and that normal gene would take over and produce a normal phenotype/function.
Since, boys only have one X chromosome, if they get the mutated gene they will get the disease, whereas females have two X chromosome (so even if one copy is bad and the other is good, the good version can take over, however boys don't have this) thus mostly male children are affected by this.
Answer:
Waves are vibrations that transfer energy through a medium without causing the individual particles of a medium to move significantly from their equilibrium or position of rest.
