In the near future a Space X mission to Mars discovered a species that was previously unknown. Elon Musk decided to name the spe

cies "Gazorp". The size of this species was determined by a single gene. Individuals in this species could be either TT- Tall Tt- Medium and tt- Short. When the Gazorp reproduces, it produces 100 individuals. The scientists took the species back to earth and crossed two medium Gazorps in a lab. Out of the one hundred Gazorps produces how many would you expect to be medium sized?

Answer:

  • 25 tall individuals, TT
  • 50 medium individuals, Tt
  • 25 short individuals, tt

Explanation:

<u>Available data</u>:

  • The size of this species was determined by a single gene
  • TT- Tall
  • Tt- Medium
  • tt- Short
  • Total number of individuals in the progeny, N = 100

There are three phenotypes and only one gene, so it seems that this is an example of incomplete dominance, where the medium-size is the intermediate form between tall-size and short-size.  

Cross: between two medium Gazorps

Parentals) Tt    x    Tt

Gametes) T  t       T   t

Punnett square)    T           t

                    T       TT         Tt

                    t        tT          tt

F1) 1/4 = 25% TT, tall

    2/4 = 1/2 = 50% Tt, medium

    1/4 = 25% tt, short

100% of the progeny ------------ 100 individuals

25% Tall, TT ------------------------X = 25 individuals

50% Medium, Tt -------------------X = 50 individuals

25% Short, tt ------------------------X = 25 individuals

Which of the following structures would you expect to find in a single-celled organism?. A) internal organs. . B) legs and feet.
Karo-lina-s [1.5K]

The correct answer is:

C) outer covering

The structure that you should expect to find in a single celled organism is : C. outer covering.Single celled organism still hasn't developed a complex body structure, so it definitely won't have legs, internal organs, or brain.

Explanation:

None of the other answers can happen due to the combined solutions disability to reach the center of the organism, smaller cells in higher numbers are more effective as they can group commonly yet all receive the right amounts of nutrients for its need. multicellular organisms, such as humans can have the other answers in them as cells group collectively to make skin, muscles, and organs. it also provides the body to grow larger.

In a population of white (W) and black (w) sheep, 22 out of 244 sheep are black. What is the frequency of the dominant allele in
olasank [31]

Answer and Explanation:

To calculate the allele frequency in the population, we divide the number of occurrences of the particular allele by total number of all alleles in the population Allele frequencies can be represented as a decimal, a percentage, or a fraction.

Given the population of white (W) and black (w) sheep, 22 out of 244 sheep are black, the frequency of the dominant allele in the population = 222/244×100=
