What are the punnet squares really used for and do they work 

Biology
1 answer:
podryga [215]3 years ago
3 0
Punnett squares are used to find out the possible genotypes of the next generation after a cross and thus find the phenotype too according to the predicted genotypes.

For example, parents with genotypes of Rr and rr cross together, we can use the punnett square to list out the possible genotypes of their children which are Rr and rr.

You can never predict the exact genotypes of the next child but you can find out the possibility if they carry a certain trait. All the genotypes of the child are in random but you at least know what phenotypes they'll have.

Select the difference between prokaryotes and eukaryotes.
Lana71 [14]

Eukaryotic cells are larger than prokaryotic cells and have a “true” nucleus, membrane-bound organelles, and rod-shaped chromosomes. The nucleus houses the cell's DNA and directs the synthesis of proteins and ribosomes.

So..the answer should be D. Eukaryotic cells have a true membrane-bound nucleus and prokaryotes do not

All cells have a plasma membrane, ribosomes, cytoplasm, and DNA. Prokaryotic cells lack a nucleus and membrane-bound structures. Eukaryotic cells have a nucleus and membrane-bound structures called organelles.

So..it can't be C. or A. or even B.

Correct me if I'm wrong.

Which major type of air mass forms over warm water <br>​
alisha [4.7K]

Answer:

The correct answer is maritime tropical air mass.

Explanation:

The maritime tropical air mass is most generally witnessed in the Southeast United States. This air mass generally occurs over the warm waters of the Gulf Stream and the Gulf of Mexico, where the moisture and heat are transmitted towards the overlying air from the waters present underneath. The warm water in this evaporates a huge quantity of water.
