Answer:

A. Person to person.

Explanation:

The graph shows that the disease spreads slowly at first, then rapidly, and slowly at the end. This pattern of transmission is most characteristic of a disease spread from one person to the next. When only one person has the disease, the rate of transmission is slow because that person may only meet a few others. But as the number of people with the disease increases, the number of meetings that spread the disease also increase. At this time, the disease can spread very rapidly. The disease spreads more slowly again when there are only a few people remaining that do not have the disease. With foodborne and airborne diseases, the rate of disease spread is most rapid when the disease first arises and the greatest number of possible victims are available. Graphs of foodborne and airborne transmission show the greatest rate of disease spread at the start of the outbreak.

FYI: This isn't my explanation this is the explanation the question gives! :)

Explain Mendel's law of independent assortment and how the 9:3:3:1 phenotypic ratio among the F2 of a dihybrid cross provides ev

GrogVix [38]

Answer:

Explanation:

Mendel's law of independent assortment state that two different genes assort independently in gamete formation.

To reach this conclusion, one has to do a dihybrid cross. This means that two genes responsible for different traits need to be analyzed at the same time.

1) Starting with a parental generation of a cross between two pure lines (homozygous for both genes) with different traits, a plant with yellow and round seeds (YYRR) and another with green and wrinkled seeds (yyrr). The F1 will be phenotypically homogeneous (yellow and round), and genotypically heterozygous (YyRr).

2) If the individuals from the F1 are crossed with one another, we have to do a Punnett Square to determine the phenotypic ratio of the F2.

If the genes assort independently, the F1 individuals will produce their different gametes with the same probability. Each possible gamete will appear in a 1/4 proportion: YR, Yr, yR, yr.
The 9:3:3:1 ratio is a result of analyzing the possible phenotypes that result from the dihybrid cross.

See the attached image for an illustration of the crosses in each generation and the Punnett Square.
