Answer:

Answer:

Genotype                  Phenotype                      

SS                 1/4          Short hair         3/4

Ss                 2/4         Short hair          3/4

ss                  1/4          Long hair          1/4

Explanation:

Both are heterozygous for the trait so we can expect that the cross would be:

Ss x Ss

   S     s

S  SS   Ss

s   Ss   ss

So the resulting off-spring would have the following genotype and phenotype:

1 out of 4 will have a genotype of SS.

2 out of 4 or half will have a genotype of Ss.

1 out of 4 will have a genotype of ss.

But because short hair is dominant the phenotype ratios would differ because Ss and SS would express short hair, so we add up their ration:

Short hair: 1/4 + 2/4 = 3/4

Long hair:  1/4

So in summary:

Genotype                  Phenotype                      

SS                 1/4          Short hair         3/4

Ss                 2/4         Short hair        

ss                  1/4          Long hair          1/4

How many daughter cells result from a parent cell in meiosis?
masha68 [24]

Answer:4 haploid daughter cells

Explanation:

Meiosis is a type of cell division that reduces the number of chromosomes in the parent cell by half and produces four gamete cells. This process is required to produce egg and sperm cells for sexual reproduction. During reproduction, when the sperm and egg unite to form a single cell, the number of chromosomes is restored in the offspring.

Meiosis begins with a parent cell that is diploid, meaning it has two copies of each chromosome. The parent cell undergoes one round of DNA replication followed by two separate cycles of nuclear division. The process results in four daughter cells that are haploid, which means they contain half the number of chromosomes of the diploid parent cell.

Which is part of the spindle apparatus?
professor190 [17]

Chromatin is a part of the spindle apparatus

Explanation:

Chromosome is not only responsible for genetic material.  Chromatin is that substance which consists of protein and DNA.  Here DNA carries genetic instruction. Histones are main proteins of chromatin. It is also called the packaging of element for the DNA.

In two forms chromatin exist. One is euchromatin and another is heterochromatin. Euchromatin is less condensed and it can be transcribed. Heterochromatin is highly condensed and typically not transcribed. Chromosomal pathway regulates spindle assembly.
