Answer and Explanation:

ATP is the energy molecule of the organism, being necessary for all cellular processes. It is produced in both aerobic and anaerobic respiration, but the processes are different.

Aerobic respiration, ATP is produced by breaking down the glucose molecule found in the food we consume. This process occurs in all organisms that need the presence of oxygen to survive. However, this is a complex process that occurs with the help of several enzymes and co-enzymes that perform various oxidation reactions on the glucose molecule, transforming it into carbon dioxide, water and ATP.

Anaerobic respiration is also known as fermentation and occurs in all organisms that cannot survive in the presence of oxygen. This process also occurs with the help of enzymes and coezimas, where the glucose molecule is degraded until it becomes two molecules of pyruvate. During the pyruvate degradation reactions, an ADP molecule is released, which will later be added to a phosphate molecule that is free in the cytosol, becoming ATP.

In cattle, codominance of the allele for a red coat (R) and the allele for a white coat (W) results in offspring with a roan coa

mario62 [17]

Answer:

Genotype ratio: 1 (RR) : 2 (RW) : 1 (WW)

Phenotype ratio: 1 Red : 2 Roan : 1 White

Explanation:

Codominance is a kind of inheritance pattern in which both alleles are equally dominant in a gene. This means that both alleles when in a heterozygous state will be simultaneously expressed. According to this question, allele for a red coat (R) and the allele for a white coat (W) results in offspring with a roan coat (RW) in cattle.

Hence, in a cross between a a roan cow (RW) and a roan bull (RW), the following gametes will be produced: R and W.

Using these gametes in a punnet square (see attached image), the offsprings with the following genotypes will be produced: RR, RW, RW, WW.

Therefore, based on the results of the cross;

Genotype ratio: 1 (RR) : 2 (RW) : 1 (WW)

Phenotype ratio: 1 Red : 2 Roan : 1 White
