Answer:

See the answer below

Explanation:

1. Only one phenotype is present in the F1 generation offspring. Since tallness was dominant over shortness, all the offspring in the F1 generation appeared tall.

2. Two phenotypes are present in the F2 generation - 9 tall and 3 short. The short trait reappeared at the F2 generation.

3. The genotype of the F1 offspring would be heterozygous. Assuming the purebred tall is AA and the purebred short is aa:

AA x aa

Aa Aa Aa Aa

All the F1 offspring will appear tall and their genotypes would be heterozygous.

4. Assuming that the allele for height is denoted with A (a), the genotype of the purebred tall plant would be AA.

5. In a similia vein, the genotype of the purebred short plant would be aa.

Was the streak plate method effective at diluting the population size in all 4 plates?

Inessa05 [86]

Answer:

"Yes" The streak plate method is very effective in diluting the population size in all 4 plates.

Explanation:

The streak plate method is effective because it is one among the rapid isolation method which further allows for easy observation of the bacteria. This method is also being used for getting the color of the certain substances. Its main principle is to isolate the specific bacteria from the sample of various microbes. It dilutes the microbes number and often reduces their density. It is useful in separation of organisms from the group. These are isolated in the agar plate.

People who are tune deaf are unable to follow a rhythm. Scientists have evidence that tune deafness can be genetic. The pedigree

butalik [34]

Question

Pedigree attached

a. Provide evidence from the pedigree that conclusively shows that the tune deafness allele is autosomal dominant, not autosomal recessive. Explain your reasoning.

b. Identify the genotypes of individuals 5 and 6, and then draw the Punnett square for the cross of these two individuals.

c. Compare the expected percentage of each phenotype of the offspring from the cross in part (b) with the actual percentage of each phenotype observed in the children of individuals 5 and 6.

Answer/Explanation:

a. Autosomal dominant means that even having one copy of the allele T will produce a tune deaf individual. The evidence of this is that individuals II.3 and 4 have children (III. 8 and 9) with normal tune perception. This suggests that they have inherited the normal allele from both parents. That means II.3 and II4 must be heterozygous, in order to pass on the normal allele. This makes sense if tune deafness is dominant (because 3 and 4 will both be Tt and Tt, so can pass on the t alleles). However, if tune deafness was recessive, that would mean that individual II 3 and 4 both have to carry 2 copies, meaning there is no way their children would have normal tune perception.

b. Since individual 5 is unaffected and we know this is the recessive trait, they must be Tt. Since individual 6 is affected, they must be either Tt or tt. However, they have children who are unaffected (11, 12, 13) who must be tt. This means, individual 6 must have the t allele to pass on, and must be Tt. Therefore, the cross between individuals 5 and 6 is tt x Tt:

T t

t Tt tt

c) The punnet square shows the children from (b) have a 50:50 chance of being tune deaf vs normal tune perception (50% each). In contrast, the actual ratios are 25% tune deaf to 75% normal tune perception. (1:4). This deviates from the expected ratio, but since all of these are due to chance, it is not an unexpected occurrence. Perhaps if there were 10, 50 or 100 children (!) from this cross, the results would be more like the expected ratio

Macromolecules that contain carbon , hydrogen and oxygen in a 1:2:1 ratio is called ?

UNO [17]

Answer/Explanation: Carbohydrates contain carbon, hydrogen and oxygen atoms with the ratio of hydrogen atoms to oxygen atoms in the ration of 2 hydrogen atoms to 1 oxygen atoms (2H : 10) such as in sucrose or table sugar C12H22011. It is Carbohydrates are a ready source of energy.

Anvisha [2.4K]

Answer:

Collaborative empiricism

Explanation:

Collaborative empiricism is based on establishing a therapeutic relationship which is becomes a partnership by which the therapist and patient work together as a team to identify maladaptive cognitions and behaviour, test their validity, and make revisions to the therapy if needed.
