Answer:

What is the genotype for a h0m0zygous dominant plant? PP

What is the phenotype? Purple plants

What is the genotype for a h0m0zygous recessive plant? pp

What is the phenotype? White plants

What is the genotype for a heterozygous plant? Pp

What is the phenotype? Purple plants.

What is the genotype for a h0m0zygous dominant for freckles? FF

What is the phenotype? Freckles

What is the genotype for a h0m0zygous recessive for freckles? ff

What is the phenotype? No freckles

What is the genotype for a heterozygous individual for freckles? Ff

What is the phenotype? Freckles.

Each individual has two alleles for a given gene.

For example, the allele dimples are dominant. How would you represent this allele? With capital letters, for example, DD.

The allele for no dimple is recessive. How would you represent this allele? With lowercase letters, for example, dd.

The allele for brown eyes is dominant. How would you represent this allele? With capital letters, for example, BB.

The allele for blue eyes is recessive. How would you represent this allele? With lowercase letters, for example, bb.

PP: h0m0zygous dominant; Yy: heterozygous; Ss: heterozygous; bb:h0m0zygous recessive; FF: h0m0zygous dominant

Explanation:

Every being, such as plants, animals, or humans, have two different copies of a gene. These are alleles. These copies can be dominant or recessive.

Dominant genes are the ones that we will see. They "hide" the recessive gene. Recessive genes are the ones that we will only express if the two alleles are recessive since there is no dominant gene that hides the other.

Genotype is the genes that an individual or animal has. We can not see it. For example, a person can have a dominant trait for blue eyes and a recessive trait for brown eyes (Bb)s. In other words, it is the genetic information that a person carries. The phenotype is what we can see of a trait. Following the previous example, the dominant trait is blue eyes, and the recessive is brown, so the gene that will express itself is blue eyes, and we will able to see it.

The pair of alleles can be h0m0zygous and heterozygous. H0m0zygous is when the two traits are the same, for example, BB or bb. Heterozygous is when the traits are different, like, Bb.

Pea plants have two flower varieties where purple is dominant over white. The dominant trait, we represent it with a capital letter, in this case, P, because it is the first letter in purple. The recessive trait we represent it with a lowercase letter, in this case, p.

The genotype for a h0m0zygous dominant plant would be PP. We have to remember that the genotype is the information that the plant carries. If this information is h0m0zygous, it means the two alleles are the same, and if they are both dominant, we write capital letters. The phenotype is what we can see of the information; the gene that it is expressed, in this case, would be the color purple.

A h0m0zygous recessive plant has two alleles with the same information, and as they are recessive, we write two lowercase letters (pp). The genotype would be white plants since there is no dominant allele that covers the recessive one.

In a heterozygous plant, the traits are different. We have the dominant trait purple (P) and the recessive trait white (p). The dominant is the one that will express itself and the one that we will be able to see, see in a purple plant.

The following questions are similar to the first one. We know that freckles are a dominant trait, so we use a capital letter to represent it (F) and a lowercase letter to portrait the recessive trait, which is no freckles (f).

A h0m0zygous dominant means that the two alleles are the same and that one does not hide the other so, the genotype would be FF, and the phenotype would be a person with freckles.

If the person is h0m0zygous recessive, it means that it has the same traits, but one allele does not hide the other. The genotype would be ff, and the phenotype would be no freckles.

In the last case, the person is heterozygous, which means that it has one dominant and one recessive allele. The dominant allele will express itself; the genotype would be Ff, and the phenotype freckles.

In the following questions, we know that we represent dominant alleles with capital letters and recessive ones with lowercase letters, if it is a dominant allele for brown eyes, we write BB, taking the first letter of the dominant trait, in this case, brown. If it is a recessive trait, we write lowercase letters, in this case, bb for blue eyes.

In the last set of questions, we have to observe the letters to find the genotype.

PP, FF: the two letters are the same, which means that the allele is h0m0zygous. Also, they are both in capital letters, so they are dominant traits. Yy, Ss: the two letters are different, one is in capital letters, and the other is not. The allele is heterozygous. bb: the two letters are the same, so they carry the same information. They are h0m0zygous. Both of them are in lowercase, so they are recessive alleles.

What clues could you use to help determine whether movement of oslutes through the apicl and basolateral cell membranes is passi
Setler79 [48]

Answer:

Clues that can be used to determine whether the movement of solutes through the membrane is passive or active could be the molecule size, membrane potential, and the presence/absence of membrane protein.

Explanation:

Solutes transport through the cellular membrane depends on the solute size, membrane potential, and the presence/absence of integral membrane protein.

There are two types of transport: Active and passive.

-        Passive transport: It does <u>not need energy</u>; it is driven by a chemical potential gradient. <u>Small molecules</u> with no charge are transported through the membrane in a gradient favor, from a high concentration region to a low concentration region. There are two types of passive transport: <em>By simple diffusion</em> (small molecules pass through the membrane by themselves) and by <em>facilitated diffusion</em> (molecules are helped by integral membrane proteins to pass through the membrane). In facilitated diffusion, the helping protein can be a <u>channel protein</u> (hydrophilic pores that allow the molecule to pass with no interaction) or a <u>carrier protein</u> (proteins with mobile parts that suffer modification as the molecule pass to the other side).

-         Active transport: It <u>does need ATP energy</u> to pass the molecule through the membrane, as they have to <u>move against the electrochemical gradient</u>. This kind of transport is always mediated by a <u>carrier protein</u>. These proteins join with the molecules and suffer changes as they pass the solute to the other side of the membrane. An important example of this kind of transport is the sodium-potassium bomb.

Mushrooms with gills, typically available in supermarkets, have meiotically produced spores located in or on _________ and belon
GarryVolchara [31]

Answer:

Mushrooms with gills, typically available in supermarkets, have meiotically produced spores located in or on BASIDIA and belong to the phylum BASIDIOMYCOTA.

Explanation:

Mushrooms are fruiting bodies of certain fungi that belongs yo the phylum BASIDIOMYCOTA. They are incapable of producing their own foods( because of lack of chlorophyl) therefore are saprophytic in nature. It derives its nutrients for growth from metabolizing non living organic matter.The structure that you normally see above the ground is the part of the mushroom that is producing and dispersing spores which is located at the BASIDIA.

Mushroom are used for different purposes:

- the edible species are useful in cooking since it provides vitamin D to the diet.

- it's extracts can be used for medical purposes.

How could a population, such as the naked mole rats, evolve to the point where not all individuals reproduce?
katen-ka-za [31]
The naked mole rats' population increases by the reproduction of the queen. The colony has one queen that may produce as many as 30 pups in one litter. The female can live up to 18 years, continues to breed and produce every 80 days.
