Answer:

The correct answer is -

a) 1/16

b) 1/64

c) 1/32

Explanation:

According to the law of independent assortment, each allele of a particular gene has equal chances of getting inherited into the gametes.

In a Mendelian cross of Aa x Aa would give;

AA = 1/4,

Aa = 2/4 and

aa = 1/4

The result of the cross between AaBb x AaBb would be 1/16 due to the fact that probability is still the same AA = 1/4, BB = 1/4 therefore, AABB = 1/16 = 1/4× 1/4.

Now based on this crossing the following:

AaBbCCDd x AabbCcDd.

Take each allele as individual

Aa x Aa would give; AA = 1/4, Aa = 2/4 and aa = 1/4

Bb x bb would give; BB = 1/2, bb = 1/2

CC x Cc would give; CC = 1/2, Cc = 1/2

Dd x Dd would give; DD = 1/4, Dd = 2/4 and dd = 1/4

Then the probability of progeny of the following would be:

a) the probability of AaBbCcDd = 2/4 x 1/2 x 1/2 x 2/4 = 1/16

b) the probability of aabbCCdd = 1/4 x 1/2 x 1/2 x 1/4 = 1/64

c) the probability of AabbCcDD = 2/4 x 1/2 x 1/2 x 1/4 = 1/32

The chemical equation shown represents photosynthesis.
Fudgin [204]
<h3><u>Answer;</u></h3>

It combines with water to form glucose.

<h3><u>Explanation;</u></h3>
  • Photosynthesis is a process by which green plants make their own food by using solar energy from the sun, together with water and carbon dioxide.
  • Carbon dioxide, water and light are all needed for photosynthesis to take place. During the process solar energy from the sun is used to convert carbon dioxide and water into the simple sugar glucose.
  • <em><u>Substance A is the above question represent carbon dioxide which combines with water in presence of light to form simple sugars and oxygen gas.</u></em>
  • The equation for the reaction is;

6CO2 + 6H2O + light energy = C6H12O6 + 6O2.

Mnenie [13.5K]
B. a specific place on a chromosome where a particular gene resides.

A locus (plural loci) in genetics is the position of a gene on a chromosome. Each chromosome carries many genes; humans' estimated 'haploid' protein coding genes are 19,000-20,000, on the 23 different chromosomes. A variant of the similar DNA sequence located at a given locus is called an allele.

Animal regeneration can produce whole organism or parts of organism and repair injury.

Clones today are done at genetic level by using molecular biology techniques as compared to old days when only nucleus would be removed from the egg cell and desired nucleus is inserted for cloning.

Explanation:

Regeneration is a process in which whole organism or part of which is produced from pre existing cells or group of cells and tissue. Regeneration helps in maintaining the integrity of morphology and physiology.

In lower animals like hydra and planaria whole organism is generated by existing parts. This process is termed as totipotency.

In higher animals however injury repair by mitosis is an example of regeneration.

Plant structure involved in vegetative propagation are: bulbs, rhizomes and tubers.

Vegetative propagation can be done by grafting, cutting, bulb formation, tuber, layering and tissue culture methods.

Cloning is a process in which a genetical or identical copy of an organism or the cell is made by molecular biology techniques. The use of DNA sequences, molecular scissors, stem cells and plasmid are the latest techniques of cloning.

Cloning is used for treating serious diseases as diabetes and heart injury.

In old days one cell would have its nucleus removed and placed into the egg and eventually organism produced

Advantages of tissue culture:

From a single explants, large number of plants can be made.

Obtaining plants of desired trait from tissue culture is easy in short span.

No seeds are required for the growing of new plants.
