Scientists compare the structures of a chicken embryo and a human embryo at the same stage of development. They find that both v

ertebrates have similar shapes and structures, including the presence of gill slits and tails. How is this comparison of the embryos used as supporting evidence of evolution?
A. The similarities suggest that chickens and humans are the direct descendants of modern-day fish with tails and gill slits.
B. The similarities suggest that vertebrates pass through each of the adult stages of their evolutionary history as they develop.
C. The similarities suggest that vertebrates can undergo genetic changes during development that lead to the evolution of new species.
D. The similarities suggest that chickens and humans descend from ancestors with genes that code for the development of tails and gill slits.

Explain Mendel's law of independent assortment and how the 9:3:3:1 phenotypic ratio among the F2 of a dihybrid cross provides ev
GrogVix [38]

Answer:

Explanation:

Mendel's law of independent assortment state that two different genes assort independently in gamete formation.

To reach this conclusion, one has to do a dihybrid cross. This means that two genes responsible for different traits need to be analyzed at the same time.

1) Starting with a <u>parental generation of a cross between two pure lines</u> (homozygous for both genes) <u>with different traits</u>, a plant with yellow and round seeds (YYRR) and another with green and wrinkled seeds (yyrr). <u>The F1 will be phenotypically homogeneous (</u>yellow and round)<u>, and genotypically heterozygous (</u><u>YyRr</u><u>)</u>.

2) If the individuals from the F1 are crossed with one another,  we have to do a Punnett Square to determine the phenotypic ratio of the F2.

  • If the genes assort independently, the F1 individuals will produce their different gametes with the same probability. Each possible gamete will appear in a 1/4 proportion: YR, Yr, yR, yr.
  • The 9:3:3:1 ratio is a result of analyzing the possible phenotypes that result from the dihybrid cross.

See the attached image for an illustration of the crosses in each generation and the Punnett Square.

Rus_ich [418]

The geneticist who discovered the white eye mutation in drosophila and helped establish that genes are carried on chromosomes was Thomas Hunt Morgan.

Thomas Hunt Morgan One landmark of modern genetics can be dated to January 1910, when Thomas Hunt Morgan discovered a male of Drosophila melanogaster with white eyes.

What is genetics?

  • The study of genes and heredity.
  • Heredity is the passing of genetic information and traits from parents to offspring.
  • Genetics is the study of genes and tries to explain what they are and how they work.
  • children usually look like their parents because they have inherited their parent's genes.
