Explanation:
The problem says that the hairless phenotype never breeds true. That means that it's not the result of a homozygous genotype (H₁H₁ or H₂H₂), so it is caused by the heterozygous genotype (H₁H₂).
The <u>expected </u>offspring from the cross between two Mexican hairless would be:
<h3>P
H₁H₂ x
H₁H₂</h3><h3>F1 1/4
H₁H₁, 2/4
H₁H₂ and 1/4
H₂H₂.</h3>
And the <u>expected</u> phenotypic ratio 3:1. However, the observed offspring shows a 2:1 ratio. What's happening?
If the observed phenotypic ratio in the offspring of a monohybrid cross (a single gene with two alleles) is 2:1, we can suspect that one of the genotypes is lethal in homozygosis and therefore does not appear in the progeny (the puppies are born dead).
If we proposed that the H₂ allele is lethal in homozygosis, then:
- The H₁H₁ genotype would cause normal puppies --> 1
- The H₁H₂ genotype would cause hairless puppies --> 2
- The H₂H₂ is lethal and causes the death of puppies --> 0
The phenotypic ratios change to 2:1, as observed in the experiment.
Answer:
The correct answer would be They comprise the Calvin cycle.
Calvin cycle refers to the set of chemical reactions taking place in the stroma of the chloroplast in which carbon is fixed into food (glucose). The whole process is divided into three stages namely: fixation, reduction, and regeneration (ribulose bisphosphate or RuBP).
It takes place in light-independent reaction of the the photosynthesis.
It does not require light energy to carry out the reactions however, it depends upon the products of light reaction (ATP and NADPH).
Fixation of one molecule of glucose requires 6 molecules of carbon dioxide, 9 ATP and 6 NADPH.
The fixation of carbon is catalyzed by an enzyme RuBisCO.
Answer:
Ratio of students to chaperones = 20 / 7
Explanation:
Given:
Total student = 100
Total chaperones = 35
Find:
Ratio of students to chaperones
Computation:
Ratio of students to chaperones = 100 / 35
Ratio of students to chaperones = 20 / 7
Only toms idea could be scientific since it is testable, can be tested by others, have a hypothesis, and be proven
