The two genes f and g, code for body size and aggressiveness, respectively. The F allele is dominant over f, and codes for a lar

ger body size. The G allele is dominant over g, and codes for more aggressive ants. You perform a Mendelian dihybrid cross (NOT a test cross) on these traits. If there is no recombination between these genes (recombination frequency = 0.00), what ratio should you see phenotypes in in the offspring? (note that the parent generation was made up of large aggressive ants and small docile ants.)
A. 9 large aggressive:3 large docile:3 small aggressive: 1 small docile
B. 1 large aggressive:1large docile:1small aggressive:1small docile
C. 12 large aggressive:4 small docile (i.e. 3 large aggressive:1small docile)
D. None of the above

Answer:

The correct answer is option C.

Explanation:

As it is given that, a Mendelian cross is performed between two parents resulted by cross the parents. This suggests that the parents or P generation has zero recombination hence the genotype of Parents would be AA and aa in nature. Therefore, all the F1 generation offspring were Aa in nature. The selfing of the F1 offspring will be:

         A  a

A AA Aa

a Aa aa

Genotype: AA: Aa: aa :: 1:2:1

Phenotype: Dominant: recessive :: 3:1

Explain why conservation is the most important strategy in the soil management programs of agriculture​

<u>Conservation is the most important strategy in the soil management programs of agriculture​</u>

In the soil management various practices are followed which will help to conserve the soil and so as to increase the fertility of the soil. Being the most important step conservation is very mandatory, as the building up of new soil will take a lot of time. It also protects the soil from the bad weather and protects the erosion. In conservation process it helps in the nutrient preservation, which can give good yield when practised cultivation. More crops can be easily grown , which will fetch more money. The conserving soil can also help in biochar fertilizer.

Researchers noted that when a lysine residue on a histone is acetylated, its side chain becomes neutral in charge. Combined with
lesantik [10]

Answer:

The correct answer is A) Histone deacetylation generally decreases gene expression.

Explanation:

Histones are the proteins that are responsible for the condensation of chromatin, which is directly linked to the capacity that a gene has to be expressed. The more condensed a gene is, the less expressible it becomes.

In order to regulate the gene expression, histones can suffer from many modifications that can change their conformation and the expressiveness of specific genes.

<u>Histone acetylation is linked with an increase of gene expression; while deacetylation and methylation decrease gene expression.</u>
