Complete question:

A geneticist crossed fruit flies to determine the phenotypic ratio. The geneticist crossed a fly with blistery wings and spineless bristles (bbss) with a heterozygous fly that had normal wings and normal bristles (BbSs). Which proportion of offspring that are dominant for both traits in would you not expect based on Mendel's law of independent assortment? 1/2 , 4/16, 25% , or 1/4

Answer:

1/2 is the proportion of the offspring that is NOT expected among individuals that are dominant for both traits.

4/16 = 1/4 = 25% of the progeny and the correct expected proportion of individuals that are dominant for both traits.

Explanation:

<u>Available data</u>:

Cross: a fly with blistery wings and spineless bristles with a heterozygous fly that had normal wings and normal bristles
Recessive trait: blistery wings and spineless bristles
Dominant trait: normal wings and normal bristles

Let us say that:

B is the dominant allele for normal wings
b is the recessive allele for blistery wings
S is the dominant allele for normal bristles
s is the recessive allele for spineless bristles

Parentals) bbss x BbSs

Gametes) bs, bs, bs, bs BS, Bs, bS, bs

Punnett square) BS Bs bS bs

bs BbSs Bbss bbSs bbss

F1) 4/16 = 1/4 = 25% of the progeny is expected to be BbSs, dyhibrid individuals, expressing normal wings and normal bristles

4/16 = 1/4 = 25% of the progeny is expected to be Bbss, expressing normal wings and spineless bristles

4/16 = 1/4 = 25% of the progeny is expected to be bbSs, expressing blistery wings and normal bristles

4/16 = 1/4 = 25% of the progeny is expected to be bbss, expressing blistery wings and spineless bristles

Suppose the great, green galoofus lizard has 28 chromosomes in the nucleus of its unfertilized eggs. Predict how many chromosome

Amiraneli [1.4K]

Answer: 56

Explanation:

Because an unfertilized egg has half the chromosomes of a fertilized egg. The fertilized egg then splits, and continues splitting until the lizard is born. Always remember, whenever a question talking about an unfertilized egg, it has half the chromosomes of a fertilized egg. One more side note, it doesn’t matter what body part you talk about. A skin cell will have the same number, and identical chromosomes compared to a heart cell. (So long as it’s the same organism, if it isn’t, but part of the same species, it will have the same number of chromosomes, but it may have a unique set of chromosomes). If you want me to go into detail, I can, just respond to this answer.

Which may lead to lower productivity because of a lack of incentives?

LekaFEV [45]

I believe the answer is Government subsidies. A subsidy is the form of cash payment or a tax reduction. It is normally given to remove some type of burden, and it is often considered to be in the overall interest of the public, given to promote a social good or economic policy. Tax subsidy; the government can create the same outcome through selective tax breaks as through cash payment. For example, suppose a government sends monetary assistance that reimburses 15% of all health expenditures to a group that is paying 15% income tax. Tax subsidies are also known as tax expenditures.
