Mendel determined that for a given character(i.e. pea seed shape) an individual has two factors that these can exist in two form

s (R or r). Today we would describe R and r as being:______.
a. different alleles of the seed shape gene.
b. different genes of the seed shape locus.
c. different genotypes of the seed shape character.
d. different loci of the seed shape gene.

Answer:

a. different alleles of the seed shape gene.

Explanation:

Mendel crossed different varieties of pea plants and he observed how phenotypic traits passed to the progeny. From these experiments, Mendel formulated the 'First Law of Segregation', where he observed that traits may exist in pairs that segregate (separate) at meiosis. During meiosis, i.e., gamete formation, these two factors separate from each other, thereby each gamete has the same probability of receiving either factor. Nowadays, we know that these two factors represent two different gene variants or 'alleles' for a given gene <em>locus</em>. Alleles can be classified into dominant or recessive as in the example above described, where the R factor (round) dominates on the r factor (wrinkled) to determine the seed shape.

What is the difference between a GMO and cloning
viktelen [127]

Answer:

A GMO Genetically Modified Product though similar to cloning is quite different. Cloning is the process of using egg cells from an individual to produce a new organism. When the baby is born, it is genetically identical to the parent, an exact copy. This process occurs in a lab. Genetic Engineering, which is used to make GMOs,  uses technology to alter or change an organism's genes. New genetic information can be added to or removed from an existing set of DNA.

<em>So I would say that some of the differences between GMOs and cloning include that:</em>

Cloning strives to create exact copies of an organism's parent while GMOs remove and add different genes to form desired offsprings like making a product last longer or making the product grow larger faster.

Hopefully, this helped you! Have a nice day :)

Compare a climax community to a pioneer species?
LuckyWell [14K]
<span>Climax community=when the ecosystem reaches its mature state. After every disturbance, the ecological succession will culminate in the climax community. For example, ecological succession triggered by fires in Yellowstone Park culminates in pine forests. Pioneer species are the first species to colonize an area after a disturbance occurs. They reproduce quickly and survive in harsh conditions. For example, lichens.</span>
