Valentin [98]3 years ago

<span>In the P generation a tall plant was crossed with a short plant. No F1 plants were short. Short plants reappeared in the F2 generation because: the allele for shortness and the allele for tallness segregated when the F1 plants produced gametes</span>

In pea plants the allele for round seeds (R) are dominant to the allele for wrinkled seeds (r). The allele for yellow seeds (Y)
SashulF [63]

Answer:

The correct answer is -  A. RY, rY, Ry, ry

Explanation:

Gametes are the sex cells or reproductive cells that are haploid in number. Gametes carry only one allele of each gene or chromosome in any organism. The male gamete called an egg or ovum whereas the male gamete called sperm or pollen.

In this case, the heterozygous plant has the genotype RrYy. In each of the gametes, there would one allele of each gene. The gametes get a dominant R and a dominant Y allele and a recessive r and a recessive y allele. Each produces 25% each of RY, Ry, rY, and ry.

A cell in the testes of a male bald eagle is getting ready to begin meiosis. The diploid number for this bird species is 66. How
Ostrovityanka [42]

Answer:

Replicated chromosomes at metaphase I = 66

Sister chromatids at metaphase I = 66 x 2 = 132

Sister chromatids at prophase II = 66

Chromosomes in each sperm cells = 33

Explanation:

Metaphase I of meiosis I would have 66 replicated chromosomes in the testicular cells of the bird. Each of the replicated chromosomes would have two sister chromatids. So, a total of 66 replicated chromosomes would have 66 x 2 = 132 sister chromatids.  

Due to segregation of homologous chromosomes towards opposite poles in anaphase I, each daughter cell formed by the end of meiosis I would have 33 replicated chromosomes. So, each of the daughter cells would have a total 33 x 2 = 66 sister chromatids at prophase II.  

Since meiosis II maintains the chromosome number, each sperm cell formed by the end of meiosis II would have 33 chromosomes.
