In a cross between two mice that are heterozygous for agouti, black, color, and piebaldism, what is the probability that offspri

ng will have solid black fur along with large patches of white fur? (Hint: Consider each gene separately; then use the multiplication rule. For more help getting started, see Hint 1.)

Answer:

9/256

Explanation:

According to Mendel's experiments the results for the heterozygous are in the ratio 3:1

As  each gene is considered separately and the multiplication rule is used. Therefore the probability of getting a solid color would be 1/4 and black fur would be 3/4. Similarly the probability of getting the colored fur is 3/4 and getting a piebald( white patches) is 1/4

Then the combined probability is (1/4*3/4*1/4*3/4)= 9/256

What role does evolution play in the emergence of antibiotic resistance in bacteria?
tiny-mole [99]

<u>1</u><u>.</u><u>Antibiotic resistance is a consequence of evolution via natural selection. The antibiotic action is an environmental pressure; those bacteria which have a mutation allowing them to survive will live on to reproduce. They will then pass this trait to their offspring, which will be a fully resistant generation.</u>

<u>2</u><u>.</u><u> </u><u>Bacteria evolve quickly because they grow fast and can share genes. Helpful mutations spread quickly in bacteria.</u>

<u>3</u><u>.</u><u>Taking antibiotics too often or for the wrong reasons can change bacteria so much that antibiotics don't work against them. This is called bacterial resistance or antibiotic resistance</u>

<u>4</u><u>.</u><u> </u><u>Antibiotic resistance leads to higher medical costs, prolonged hospital stays, and increased mortality. The world urgently needs to change the way it prescribes and uses antibiotics.</u>

<u>I</u><u> </u><u>think</u><u> </u><u>so</u><u> </u>

Suppose that an arginine residue in the active site of an enzyme was mutated to alanine. As expected, the alanine mutant was ina
kolbaska11 [484]

Answer:

c. A to K

Explanation:

If the alanine mutation is restored to K or lysine residue, most likely the wild type level of activity can be restored. This is because, arginine and lysine have -NH2 as the functional group. So, functional similarity of arginine can be expected from lysine as well.

Hence the correct option is c that is A to K.

What would happen if photosynisis stoped happing on earth
Neporo4naja [7]

We can confirm that the absence of photosynthesis on Earth would cause a mass extinction of most of the species on the planet.

<h3 /><h3>Why would the absence of photosynthesis be so harmful?</h3>

The process of photosynthesis is extremely important as it produces oxygen as a byproduct. The absence of this process on Earth would limit the available oxygen in the atmosphere which would at some point be entirely consumed. From then on, most species on the planet would die out as they require oxygen to live. Most plant species would also die off as they use photosynthesis to sustain life.

Therefore, we can confirm that the absence of photosynthesis on planet Earth could be considered an apocalyptic event as it would cause a near-complete extinction of life on the planet.

A researcher was studying mutations in bacteria. He found that certain bacteria had changes in their DNA that allowed them to be
kari74 [83]
<h2>Answer is option "1 B & 2 C"</h2>

Explanation:

  • Evolution genetics is a field of science, which includes the study of genetic variations that lead to evolutionary changes in organisms
  • As some bacteria had changed their DNA that led to the development of antibiotic resistance in them
  • Due to antibiotic resistance, certain bacteria, in which changes in DNA take place, become resistant against some type of antibiotics and those antibiotics are no longer effective to prevent or kill them  
  • Hence, the right answer is option 1 B and 2 C " evolution Genetics & less bacteria becoming resistant to the specific antibiotics"
