Answer: The correct answer is- D certain factors are dominant and other factors are recessive.
Mendel was interested in knowing the offspring that is produced from the cross pollination (that is from two different plants) as he wanted to study different traits of pea plant.
For doing so, he first removed the anthers of one plant (to prevent self pollination) and then transferred the pollens of one plant into the stigma of another plant.
When he allowed the cross pollination of purebred pea plant with other plant, he observed that some factors are dominant (such as tall height of pea plant, which masks the expression of recessive factors) and other are recessive (such as dwarf height of pea plant).
Thus, option D) is the right answer.
A. Cohesion is a property of water that describes the attraction due to hydrogen bonding between water molecules.
Answer:
1 in 16
Explanation:
When two heterozygotes (AaBb x AaBb) for two autosomal genes are crossed the expected probability for the offspring is 9 A-B-, 3 A-bb, 3 aaB- and 1 aabb. In other words, out of sixteen offspring, 9 are expected to be dominant on both genes (either homozygous AA or BB or heterozygous Aa or Bb), 3 are expected to be dominant on the A gene but recessive on the b gene, 3 are expected to be recessive on the a gene but dominant on the A gene, and only 1 is expected to be recessive on both genes aabb.
