What is osmosis? Please help me

1 answer:

4 0

First off, we need to understand that osmosis is typically used with the example of water---
To understand that, osmosis is taking water from a high concentration to a low concentration to make the membrane equal to one another .
Imagine you have a pea, and the pea is about to explode of water. And you have another pea that's shriveled up. You would take some of the exploding water's pea into the shriveled one, therefore making it equal. (Thats my example I like to use!)
I hope this helped!

Gray seed color in peas is dominant to white. Assume that Mendel conducted a series of experiments where plants with gray seeds

bazaltina [42]

Answer:

(a) Gg × Gg; (b) genotypic = 1:2:1, phenotypic = 3:1

Explanation:

a) A cross between two gray seeded plants produces progeny with gray and white seeds in 3:1 ratio (302:98=3:1). This means that the parent plants are heterozygous and each has at least one recessive allele. If the allele "G" is responsible for gray seed and the allele "g" imparts white color to the seeds, the genotype of the heterozygous parents would be "Gg".

b) A cross between two heterozygous gray seeded parents would produce progeny in following ratio:

Genotype ratio= 1 GG: 2 Gg: 1 gg

Phenotype ratio= 3 Gray: 1 white
