Answer:
25%
Explanation:
When looking at a pedigree remember that:
- squares are males
- circles are females
- the solid colored figure represents an individual affected by a disease
- the empty figure represents a healthy individual
Let us assign the symbol X⁺ to represent the dominant allele linked to the X-chromosome and expressing healthiness, and X⁻ to represent the recessive allele expressing the dissease.
According to this pedigree
- I1 is a man affected by the disease, YX⁻
- I2 is a healthy woman X⁺X⁻
- we can see that among the progeny (generation II) there are two individuals affected (a boy and a girl) and one healthy girl. This means that the mother I2 is heterozygous for the trait.
So, having their genotypes we can know what are the probabilities of getting a son with DMD
Parentals) YX⁻ x X⁺X⁻
Gametes) Y X⁻ X⁺ X⁻
Punnett square)
X⁺ X⁻
X⁻ X⁺X⁻ X⁻X⁻
Y X⁺Y X⁻Y
F1)
- The probabilities of getting a healthy daughter X⁺X⁻ are 25%
- The probabilities of getting a healthy son X⁺Y are 25%
- The probabilities of getting a daughter with DMD X⁻X⁻ are 25%
- The probabilities of getting a son with DMD X⁻Y are 25%
Answer:
A
Explanation:
photosynthesis converts light energy to chemical energy and not the other way round
product of photosynthesis is oxygen and energy
photosynthesis cannot occur is light energy is not available
Answer: The genotype ratio of offsprings of a cross between one homozygous tall plant and one heterozygous tall plant is 2TT:2Tt
The phenotype ratio is that all offsprings will be tall.
The genotype ratio of a cross between two heterozygous red flowers is 1RR:2Rr:2rr. The phenotype ratio is 3 Red flowers: 1 white flower.
Explanation: From the information given, tall is dominant and short is recessive while red is dominant and white is recessive.
Let T represent the allele for tall height, t represent the allele for short height, R represent allele for red flowers and r represent allele for white flowers.
The genotype of a homozygous tall plant is TT, the genotype of a heterozygous tall plant is Tt, the genotype of a heterozygous red flowered plant is Rr.
The possible genotypes of offsprings of a cross between one homozygous tall plant and one heterozygous tall plant are TT and Tt.
Tt will manifest outwardly as tall because T is dominant over t. Therefore, all the offsprings will be tall.
The possible genotypes of a cross between two heterozygous red flowers are RR, Rr and rr. RR will manifest as red, Rr will also manifest as red because R is dominant to r while rr will manifest as white because white allele (r) is recessive. Therefore 3 plants will be red-flowered while 1 plant will be white flowered.
See the attached punnet squares for details of the cross.
<span>The best definition of a fossil is any trace of an organism that lived in the past. Technically, a couple of the other choices (i.e. trace of an organism turned to rock, a hard part of an organism that has been preserved) could be considered within this group.</span>
