5. The F2 generation of a cross between a parental tall and a parental short pea plant is 298 tall plants and 102 short plants.
Vadim26 [7]

Answer:

The answer is XX.

Explanation:

Let us say that X is the dominant gene and x is the recessive gene for the height of the pea plants. Pea plants need to be homozygous or heterozygous  to have the short phenotype which means it needs to have the genotype xx or Xx.

The F2 offspring has a ratio of 74,5% tall plants and 25,5% short plants. For these results, the stem height pea plant needs to be homozygous which is an XX genotype for the tall pea plant.

I hope this answer helps.

Which of the following statements about the smooth endoplasmic reticulum is/are correct?
Vlada [557]

Answer:

  • Liver cells are abundant in SER.  
  • The testes and ovaries are tissue types whose cells are abundant in SER.
  • Cholesterol is made in the SER.
  •  Phospholipids are synthesized from cytosolic water soluble precursor molecules.  

Explanation:

This is because liver cells contain enzymes that metabolize various lipid-soluble compounds.

This is because testes and ovaries produce steroid hormones (cholesterol is the precursor for their synthesis).

ER is the organelle at which all membrane lipids are synthesized.

Phospholipids are the main lipids that are the main structural components of the cell membrane. They are synthesized on the cytosolic side of the ER membrane, from water-soluble cytosolic precursors.
