Answer:

Genotypic probability = 1RR: 2Rr: 1rr

Phenotypic probability = 1Red: 2Pink: 1white

Explanation:

This question involves a single gene coding for skin color in snapdragon plants. The alleles are incompletely dominant over one another and hence, produce an intermediate pink phenotype.

According to this question, two pink/heterozygous snapdragons were crossed i.e. Rr × Rr. Each parent will have gametes R and r. Using these gametes in a punnet square (see attached image), the following proportion of offsprings will be produced:

Genotypic probability = 1RR: 2Rr: 1rr

Phenotypic probability = 1Red: 2Pink: 1white

Suppose that a large river separates two populations of mice. one population is all black, and the other all white. a beaver dam

Wewaii [24]

This is an example of CONDOMINANCY.

Condominancy is said to occur when two different alleles are combined together to form a different allele, in which the alleles are expressed equally and none of them is dominant. In the example given above, the black rat population mated with the white rat population to produce offspring that are grey in colour. Thus, the white and the black colour of the parents are not dominant, but are equally expressed to give gray colour.

In what way are elements in the same column of the periodic table the same

Mnenie [13.5K]

1) they have similar chemical properties.
for example fluorine from the 17th column is a non metal so does all the elements of that group.
2)they have same valence electrons in their outermost shell
example
electronic configuration of
hydrogen 1, lithium 2,1, sodium 2,8,1 and so on.
3) have same valency.
