I believe it's the ovule.
Answer:
Genotype of parents: Ss x ss
Genotype of offsprings: Ss ss
Expected ratio of short to long: 2 : 2 = 1 : 1
The actual ratio in this problem is Eight kittens have short hair and 3 have long hair: 8 : 3
Explanation:
In cats the allele for short hair is dominant over the allele for long hair. (SS or Ss for short hair; ss for long hair).
A short haired male and long haired female have kittens. Eight kittens have short hair and 3 have long hair.
For the parents to have been able to produce long haired offsprings, it means both parents possess one copy each of the recessive traits. Thus we have
Phenotype of parent: A short haired male and long haired female
Genotype of parents: Ss x ss
Genotype of offsprings: Ss ss
Expected ratio of short to long: 2 : 2 = 1 : 1
The actual ratio in this problem is Eight kittens have short hair and 3 have long hair: 8 : 3
D. Chromosomes
DNA in the nucleus is found in structures called chromosomes.
The best answer is B.
The endosymbiotic theory states that mitochondria and chloroplasts have striking similarities to bacterial cells:
1. they have their own DNA, which is separate from the DNA found in the nucleus of the cell.
2. Both organelles use their DNA for to produce many proteins and enzymes required for function.
3. They are both surrounded by a double membrane.
4. They reproduce just the way bacteria do, replicating their own DNA and directing their own division.
