How is it possible that phylogenies based on sequences from nuclear genomes and organellar genomes (i.e., chloroplasts and mitochondria) from the same group of species yield phylogenetic trees with different branching orders?
Answer : <span>The genome of the endosymbiont is more closely related to members of the group in which it originally evolved, while the nuclear genome of the engulfing organism has its own evolutionary trajectory.</span>
Answer:
A punnet square can be described as a diagram which depicts the outcomes of the genotype and phenotype of offsprings from a cross between parents. A cross in which a single trait is being considered is a monohybrid cross. A cross in which two traits are being studied is considered as a dihybrid cross.
The punnet square for such a cross can be made as follows:
RY RY rY rY
RY RRYY RRYY RrYY RrYy
RY RRYY RRYY RrYY RrYY
Ry RRYy RRYy RrYy RrYy
Ry RRYy RRYy RrYy RrYy
