Suppose you cross a pure-breeding, black-coated dog with curly fur to a pure-breeding, yellow-coated dog with straight fur. In t

he F1 generation, all the puppies have straight, black coats. Next, you interbreed the F1 dogs with one another to get an F2 generation.
If coat color and coat texture are controlled by two genes that assort independently, what fraction of the F2 puppies are expected to have yellow, straight fur?

Answer:

3/16

Explanation:

- Coat color and coat texture are controlled by two independent genes

-The parental generation is pure breeding, meaning that individuals are homozygous for all genes.

-The F1 was homogeneous with straight black coats, meaning that straight fur and black coats are the dominant traits.

I will call the alleles:

  • Black coat: BB or Bb
  • Yellow coat: bb
  • Straight fur: SS or Ss
  • Curly fur: ss

<u>Parental generation cross:</u>

BBss X bbSS

<u />

<u>F1:</u>

BbSs

<u />

<u>F2:</u>

The expected proportions in the offspring resulting from a dihybrid cross with independent genes is 9:3:3:1, where:

  • 9 B_S_ black straight coats
  • 3 B_ss black curly coats
  • 3 bbS_ yellow straight fur
  • 1 bbss yellow curly fur

So 3/16 dogs of the offspring will have yellow, straight fur.

Identify the type of neuronal cell that detects bright light and provides high-resolution color vision.
alina1380 [7]

Answer:

The correct option is b. cones.

Explanation:

Cones and rods are specialized cells, called photoreceptor cells, that are found in the retina and are responsible for our vision.

Cones, allow to the human eye to have a visual acuity (ability of the eye to resolve, transmit sharp images and perceive small details in an object) and provide sensitivity to the color, are more concentrated in the central yellow spot known as the macula.

There are three different types of cones in color reception: "L cones" (sensitive to long wavelength, which is red), "M cones" (sensitive to medium wavelength, which is green) and "S cones" (sensitive to short wavelength, which is blue). Since color perception depends on the activation of these three types of nerve cells, it follows that the visible color can be determined based on three numbers called triestimulus values.

The rods are necessary for the perception of light and darkness and to adapt to night vision, because they are very sensitive to low intensity light. On the contrary, they become completely blind to bright light and, therefore, lack importance with regard to daytime vision or visual acuity.
