Homogeneous is the answer
The answer is C. This is because nucleotide elongation involves the addition of a nucleotide to the 3 prime carbon of the previous nucleotide carbon ring. This involves a dehydration reaction between the phosphate group on the 5 prime carbon of the last nucleotide to the hydroxyl group of the 3 prime carbon of the previous nucleotide.
Answer and Explanation:
<u>Cross:</u> aa Bb dd Ee x AA bb Dd Ee
We can calculate the probability of getting heterozygous individuals in the progeny by using the <u>product rule</u>. Assuming that these four genes <u>assort independently</u> (<em>events that occur independently from each other</em>), we can infer that the F1 will have the next genotypic proportions for each gene:
1) aa x AA
F1) 4/4=1 Aa
2) Bb x bb
F1) ½ bb
½ Bb
3) dd x Dd
F1) ½ dd
½ Dd
4) Ee x Ee
F1) ¼ EE
2/4 = ½ Ee
¼ ee
So, to know what the probability is that the F1 of being heterozygous for all loci, we must multiply the respective individual probabilities of getting a heterozygous genotype, like this:
1 Aa x ½ Bb x ½ Dd x ½ Ee = 1/8 AaBbDdEe
