Ne4ueva [31]

Answer:

Gel electrophoresis is a technique used to separate DNA fragments according to their size. DNA samples are loaded into wells indentations at one end of a gel, and an electric current is applied to pull them through the gel. DNA fragments are negatively charged, so they move towards the positive electrode. Really easy

finlep [7]

Answer:

The correct answer is C. differentiation.

Explanation:

Cell differentiation is a process via which generic embryonic cells are transformed into specialized cells through a process of gene expression. Certain signals from inside and outside our body initiates gene expression.

Cell differentiation occurs at various stages of development, which causes the size and the shape of the cell to change dramatically.

Importance of cell differentiation:

  • Plays vital role in embryonic development
  • Helps in developing organisms throughout their life

The inheritance of eye color in Drosophila is controlled by genes on each of the fly's four chromosome pairs. One eye-color gene
algol [13]

Answer:

F1 Females  - all wild type

F1 Males  - all wild type

F2 Females  -  - all wild type

F2 Males - 1/2 wild type, 1/2 vermilion

Explanation:

The wild-type allele (Xᵛ⁺) is dominant over vermilion (Xᵛ), which is a sex-linked trait.

Female flies have two X chromosomes, male flies have one X and one Y chromosome.

A homozygous wild-type female fly (Xᵛ⁺Xᵛ⁺) is mated with a vermilion male fly (XᵛY).

The female parent can only produce Xᵛ⁺ gametes.

The male parent can produce either Xᵛ or Y gametes.

When gametes from both parents fuse, the F1 offspring will have the genotypes Xᵛ⁺Xᵛ (females with wild type eyes) and Xᵛ⁺Y (males with wild type eyes).

The F1 females can produce Xᵛ⁺ and Xᵛ gametes. The F1 males can produce Xᵛ⁺ and Y gametes.

When the F1 individuals interbreed, the gametes combine to give rise to the F2 offspring. The possible combination of gametes that will give the different genotypes and phenotypes in the F2 are:

  • Xᵛ⁺Xᵛ⁺ females with wild type eyes
  • Xᵛ⁺ Y males with wild type eyes
  • Xᵛ Xᵛ⁺ females with wild type eyes
  • Xᵛ Y males with vermilion eyes
