If a person is shot, and the bullet destroys the part of the brain called the medulla, which maintains basic life functions (heart rate, breathing), there is virtually no chance for surviving that injury
Answer:
12:3:1
Explanation:
<em>The typical F2 ratio in cases of dominant epistasis is 12:3:1.</em>
<u>The epistasis is a form of gene interaction in which an allele in one locus interacts with and modifies the effects of alleles in another locus</u>. There are different types of epistasis depending on the type of alleles that are interacting. These include:
- Dominant/simple epistasis: Here, a dominant allele on one locus suppresses the expression of both alleles on another locus irrespective of whether they are dominant or recessive. Instead of the Mendelian dihybrid F2 ratio of 9:3:3:1, what is obtained is 12:3:1. Examples of this type of gene interaction are found in seed coat color in barley, skin color in mice, etc.
- Other types of epistasis include <em>recessive epistasis (9:3:4), dominant inhibitory epistasis (13:3), duplicate recessive epistasis (9:7), duplicate dominant epistasis (15:1), and polymeric gene interaction (9:6:1).</em>
Food, shelter, water, are some things a squirrel will need to survive
C. Dependent variable
The independent variable is what you want to change (ex amount of light given to plants)
The dependent variable is what changes because of the independent variable (ex the height of the plants)
So Independent is what you change, Dependent is what you measure
