Answer:
Chi square value = 0.3
In order to find the expected value, an assumption of purple flower colour dominance over white flower colour has to be made.
Explanation:
<em>First, we will assume that the purple flower trait is dominant over white flower trait, and that the alleles segregate according to Mendelian standard. Hence, the expected F2 phenotypic ratio will be 3:1.</em>
In order to get the Chi square, the expected phenotype frequency will be calculated thus;
Expected frequency (E) for purple flowered plants = 3/4 x 160 = 120
Expected frequency (E) for white flowered plants = 1/4 x 160 = 40
Observed frequency (O) for purple flowered plants = 123
Observed frequency (O) for white flowered plants = 37
<em>Chi square
=
</em>
For the purple colour flower
, which gives 0.075
For the white colour flower
, which gives 0.225
<em>Total
= 0.075 + 0.225, which gives 0.3</em>
<span>Humans did not evolve from apes,
gorillas or chimps. We are all modern species that have followed
different evolutionary paths, though humans share a common ancestor with
some primates, such as the African ape. The timeline of human evolution is long and controversial, with significant gaps.</span>
The cell membrane is an extremely pliable structure composed primarily of back-to-back phospholipids (a “bilayer”). Cholesterol is also present, which contributes to the fluidity of the membrane, and there are various proteins embedded within the membrane that have a variety of functions.
A single phospholipid molecule has a phosphate group on one end, called the “head,” and two side-by-side chains of fatty acids that make up the lipid tails (Figure 1). The phosphate group is negatively charged, making the head polar and hydrophilic—or “water loving.” A hydrophilicmolecule (or region of a molecule) is one that is attracted to water. The phosphate heads are thus attracted to the water molecules of both the extracellular and intracellular environments. The lipid tails, on the other hand, are uncharged, or nonpolar, and are hydrophobic—or “water fearing.” A hydrophobic molecule (or region of a molecule) repels and is repelled by water. Some lipid tails consist of saturated fatty acids and some contain unsaturated fatty acids. This combination adds to the fluidity of the tails that are constantly in motion. Phospholipids are thus amphipathic molecules. An amphipathic molecule is one that contains both a hydrophilic and a hydrophobic region. In fact, soap works to remove oil and grease stains because it has amphipathic properties. The hydrophilic portion can dissolve in water while the hydrophobic portion can trap grease in micelles that then can be washed away.
The correct answer is a cell.
The basic life building block is the cell.
The cell is termed as the biological, functional and structural unit of every living organisms. They are referred to as building blocks.
Cell biology is the study of cell. Cytoplasm is being found in the cell which is enclosed in a membrane. The biomolecules which are contained in a cell include nucleic acids and proteins.
There are organisms which contains single cell for example, bacteria and those which are multicellular for example, animals and plants.
