Why does a pea plant with the genotype Rr produce some gametes that have the allele for round seeds?

Biology

Amiraneli [1.4K]2 years ago

Answer:

The correct answer is - due to the law of segregation.

Explanation:

In the given case the genotype of Rr and as we know R is a dominant characteristic for round seeds and r represents the recessive allele for wrinkled seeds in a pea plant. So if a plant has Rr in its genotype it means it is a phenotypically round pea plant due to dominance in this heterozygous case.

The law of segregation states that two alleles of a gene of a specific trait will be distributed randomly and there is an equal chance of each allele to end up in the gametes, similarly in this case both alleles can be segregated to gametes and it is a random process.

Which of the following is not a product of the light reactions of photosynthesis? 1) NADPH 2) NADH 3) ATP 4) Oxygen
n200080 [17]

Answer:

The correct option is number 2. NADH is not  product of light reactions of photosynthesis.

Explanation:

The light energy from the sun is captured by the pigmented molecule, chlorophyll, of the plants. This light energy is converted into chemical energy by a serious of light-dependent reactions. The main products of light-dependent reactions are the energy molecule ATP and NADPH. Oxygen is released as a by-product during photosynthesis. Hence, all the option 1,3 and 4 are produced during the light reactions except for option 2 i.e NADH.
