In garden peas, the yellow seed trait is dominant over green seeds. Also, the round seed trait is dominant over the wrinkled-see

Darina [25.2K]

Answer:

405 individuals will be yellow and round seeded.

Explanation:

<u>Available data:</u>

the yellow seed trait is dominant over green seeds
round seed trait is dominant over the wrinkled-seed trait
These genes are on separate chromosomes

Let´s name the seed color genes Y, and the seed shape gene R

Y is the dominant allele for seed color expressing yellow

y is the recessive allele for seed color expressing green

R is the dominant allele for seed shape expressing round

r is the recessive allele for seed shape expressing wrinkled

Cross: between two plants that are heterozygous for both traits

Parental) Yy Rr x Yy Rr

Gametes) YR yR Yr yr YR yR Yr yr

Punnet Square) YR yR Yr yr

YR YYRR YyRR YYRr YyRr

yR YyRR yyRR YyRr yyRr

Yr YYRr YyRr YYrr Yyrr

yr YyRr yyRr Yyrr yyrr

F1) 720 individuals

9/16 yellow and round seeded individuals, Y-R-

3/16 green and round seeded individuals, yyR-

3/16 yellow and wrinkle seeded individuals, Y-rr

1/16 green and wrinkle seeded individuals, yyrr

<em>Note: the "-" symbol in the phenotypes means that there it could be either a dominant or recessive allele. </em>

If 720 is the total number of individuals in the F1, then:

16 possible genotypes ---------- 100% of the progeny -------- 720 individuals

9 yellow and rounded----------- 56.25% ----------------------------405 individuals

3 green and rounded-------------18.75%------------------------------135 individuals

3 yellow and wrinkled-------------18.75%------------------------------135 individuals

1 green and wrinkled--------------6.25%-------------------------------45 individuals

Miles wants to write the equation for photosynthesis. The diagram below represents one of the molecules in the equation. mc016-1

kvv77 [185]

Answer: $C_6H_{12}O_6$

Explanation: Photosynthesis is a phenomenon in which green plants containing chlorophyll use sunlight as a source of energy to convert carbon dioxide and water to form glucose and oxygen.

Photosynthesis is the process used by plants, algae and certain bacteria to convert energy from sunlight and turn it into chemical energy in the form of glucose which is used a s a source of energy by many organisms.

The balanced chemical equation for photosynthesis is written as :

$6CO_2+6H_2O\overset{sunlight}\rightarrow C_6H_{12}O_6+6O_2$

1. After mitosis in animals, cytokinesis takes place. What happens during cytokinesis?

il63 [147K]

The correct answers are as follows:
1. During cytokinesis, THE CELL MEMBRANE PINCHES IN TO FORM TWO NEW CELLS.
Cytokinesis is the physical process of cell division, it divides the cytoplasmic content of the parental cell into two new daughter cells. Cytokinesis takes place in both mitosis and meosis.
2. The correct order of the phases of mitosis are as follows: PROPHASE, METAPHASE, ANAPHASE AND TELOPHASE.
Mitosis is the process of cell division by which a cell is divided into two new cells. The process occurs in four basic stages and result in the formation of two new cells.
3. The following terms are related to sexual reproduction: MATING SYSTEM, GAMETE FORMATION AND AMPLEXUS.
Amplexus refers to the mating positions of frogs and toads during sexual reproduction. Mating system refers to the number of mating partners that an animal has during the mating period. Gamete formation is the process by which sex cells are made and it occurs in both male and female animals.
4. As a cell is preparing to divide by mitosis, the DNA MUST BE COPIED.
When a cell is getting ready to divide by mitosis, it will undergo a stage called interphase, during which the cell prepare for cell division. During interphase, the cell undergo some process and these include the copying of the DNA. The cell copies its DNA so that it has two copies of each strand.

What is acid percipitation and why is it important to living organisms

podryga [215]

Acid precipitation is rain, snow, or fog with a pH lower than 5.2 making it more acidic. This is important to living organisms because compounds created by the burning of fossil fuels react with water in the air to formacids that fall to Earth.
