Answer: 4; tt
Explanation: The two lowercase letters indicate that there are two recessive genes. If there is one uppercase letter and one lowercase letter, that would mean that it is heterozygous (as there is one dominant and one recessive gene).
Answer: The ATP(Adenosine Triphosphate) that will be generated if one pyruvate molecule is carried through cellular respiration is 36.
Explanation: Pyruvate is formed through glycolysis cycle which breaks down glucose. The pyruvate is used in aerobic cellular respiration via the TCA cycle yielding 2 ATPs and the electron transport system yielding 34 ATPs. That makes it up to a total of 36 ATPs.
Answer:
D. Aa
Explanation:
Given:
Jill (mother) is heterozygous for gene A --------- i.e Jill = Aa
Jack (father) who is homozygous recessive for gene A-------- i.e Jack = aa
Now if both cross and fertilization occurs, we have:
A a
a Aa aa
a Aa aa
The offsprings are (Aa, Aa, aa, aa)
Nondsijunction is the inability of homologous chromosomes to seperate properly during cell division. Now, we were told that this fertilization undergone nondisjunction in meiosis 1. Hence, both homologous chromosome move into the same daughter cells instead of different daughter cells because separation of homologous chromosome does not occur properly.
Therefore the result of these fertilization of a normal haploid sperm with an egg that had undergone nondisjunction in meiosis yields offspring with genotype Aa of their Mother (Jill).
