You cross two true-breeding parents (one with yellow seeds and one with green seeds), grow and self-pollinate the F1 generation,
Andru [333]

Answer:

1500

Explanation:

Let's assume that the allele for yellow seed color is "Y" and the allele for green seed color is "y". Genotype of pure breeding yellow seeded plant would be "YY" and that of the green seeded plant would be "yy". A cross between YY and yy gives all heterozygous yellow seeded plants (Yy) in F1 progeny. Self pollination of two F1 plants (Yy x Yy) obtains F2 generation in 3 yellow: 1 green ratio.

The total population size of F2 generation = 2000

The proportion of yellow seeded plants in F2 generation = 3/4 (since the F2 phenotype ratio is given 3 yellow: 1 green)

Therefore, total number of yellow seeded plants in F2 progeny = 3/4 x 2000= 1500

1. Answer;

It facilitates the movement of the fetus towards the pelvic girdle thus the child is born headfirst.

  • During labor the pelvic floor facilitates movement of the fetus towards the pelvic girdle by resisting the descent of the presenting part. This makes the fetus to rotate forwards and therefore results in majority of the fetus being born headfirst.  

2. Answer;

Purple pushing lead to development of pelvic floor problems.

Explanation

;

  • Purple pushing involves the midwife instructing a woman to hold her breath for ten seconds while forcefully pushing down during a contraction.
  • in the second stage instead of waiting for the mother to feel the instant urge of pushing which lead to development of pelvic floor problems.

3. Answer;

Exercise can help to strengthen the abdominal muscles and reduce the appearance of diastasis recti.

Explanation;

  • By contracting transversal abs muscles they strengthen and pull the muscles inwards.
  • The diastasis recti reduce with time due since the rectus muscles come close to each other enabling a human being to live a normal life because flexion, bending and stability becomes easy.

4. <u>Answer</u>

  • Pelvic floor muscles
  • Stomach muscles
  • Abdominal muscles
  • Perineal muscles
  • Uterine muscles

<u>Explanation</u>

  • Abdominal muscles are stretched to their limit by term. They greatly decrease the ability to perform strong contraction.
  • Pelvic floor is vulnerable to muscular and neurological injury during labor and delivery.  
  • Perineal muscle tightening strengthens the pubococcygeus muscle and increases its tone.

5. Answer and explanation;

  • Exercises that involve holding o breath
  • Motionless standing

Yes

Explanation

;

  • Exercise maintains physical fitness, health and wellness aiding growth to the unborn since the mother gains enough strength and energy and there is proper blood flow.
  • Many pregnant women tend to gain weight which may lead to health difficulties for example struggling to breath. The pregnant lady is able to cope with labor and she is able to get back in shape after the baby is born.

7. <u>Answer</u>;

What is the minimum number of cycles necessary to replicate a fragment of DNA over 500 times? How did u determine this?
ryzh [129]

Answer:

The correct answer is "9 cycles".

Explanation:

The minimum number of cycles necessary to replicate a fragment of DNA over 500 times is 9 cycles. In Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR) method, the fragments of DNA are doubled in each cycle. This means that after "n" cycles, the total number of fragments is given by the equation 2^n. In this case, after 9 cycles a total of 512 DNA fragments will be obtained, because 2^9 is equal to 512.
