Answer:
50% probability of Pp (purple) or pp (white) genotype.
Explanation:
P = purple gene
p = white gene
Punnet squares show the possible genotypes and probabilities of each genotype in the offspring of a cross:
Purple flower genotype (heterozygous) = Pp
White flower genotype = pp
Punnet Square:
![\left[\begin{array}{ccc}&P&p\\p&Pp&pp\\p&Pp&pp\end{array}\right]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cleft%5B%5Cbegin%7Barray%7D%7Bccc%7D%26P%26p%5C%5Cp%26Pp%26pp%5C%5Cp%26Pp%26pp%5Cend%7Barray%7D%5Cright%5D)
Potential genotypes for offspring are Pp and pp;
According to the Punnett square, 2 of 4 offspring will have the Pp genotype and the other 2 will have pp genotypes;
This means 2 should be purple and 2 white;
Or, there is a 50% chance of having either genotype, of being purple or white.
Answer:
Horizontal gene transfer
Explanation:
Horizontal gene transfer or lateral gene transfer is when an organisms of different species can acquire a gene from a different one. This process is well understood in bacteria and is responsible for the appearence of antibiotic resistant bacteria. Bacteria can take DNA fragments through a process known as transformation, but this is less common in eukaryotes. Gene transfer agents like viruses could carry the gene from one specimen to the other. Another way could be Horizontal transposon transfer but the exact mechanisms behind it are still under research.
Replication it shows the production of identical copies of DNA and Transcription transfer the coded message for protein synthesis from DNA onto mRNA
