Answer:
9:3:3:1
Explanation:
This question involves two different genes coding for height and flower color respectively. The first gene posseses allele T (dominant) and t (recessive) while the second gene possesses allele P (dominant) and p (recessive).
According to this question, two heterozygous tall and purple flowers are crossed i.e. (TtPp x TtPp). Each parent will produce the following gametes combination:
TtPp - TP, Tp, tP, tp
Using these gametes in a punnet square, the following proportion of offsprings will be produced:
T_P_ (tall, purple) = 9
T_pp (tall, white) = 3
ttP_ (short, purple) = 3
ttpp (short, white) = 1
Hence, the ratio of this cross is 9:3:3:1
Answer:
Carrying capacity is the maximum amount of organisms that an ecosystem can support. So to ensure that an ecosystem stays balanced the population needs to be under the carrying capacity. If it is not, then organisms will begin to die until the ecosystem is balanced again. The carrying capacity is related to limiting factors as such food, space, water, and sunlight. There are limited amounts of all of these, and they can only support so many plants and animals.
Answer:
it has dna that is not contained within a nucleus
Explanation:
The word prokaryote is of Greek origin and means “anterior nucleus” or “before having nucleus”. This meaning gives the impression that it is a primitive structure, and that is exactly what these organisms are about. When compared to eukaryotes, prokaryotic cells are simpler, which leads to the belief that they are more primitive elements in evolutionary history. Thus, it is believed that the first cell was that of a prokaryote being.
The composition of this cell group has few membranes, in general, the only one present is the one that delimits the cell. The prokaryotic cell is characterized by the absence of very well-known and common membranous organelles, such as mitochondria, chloroplast, Golgi complex and nucleus. Regarding the absence of a nucleus, the DNA of this cell is not separated from the cytoplasm by a nucleus.
The prokaryotic cell has a plasma membrane, cytoplasm, free and non-compartmented genetic material (DNA) and ribosomes.
