What role does mutation play in the evolution of an organism?

Biology
1 answer:
Andrew [12]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

Mutation plays an important role in evolution. The ultimate source of all genetic variation is mutation. Mutation is important as the first step of evolution because it creates a new DNA sequence for a particular gene, creating a new allele.

In a certain plant, tall stems (t) are dominant to short stems (t). a farmer crosses a short-stemmed plant with a heterozygous l
melisa1 [442]

The answers would be:

Genotype                Phenotype

     Tt                      Tall stemmed

     tt                       Short stemmed

Genotypic ratio : 2:2 or 1:1

Phenotypic ratio: 2:2  or 1:1  

<u />

<u>You can read on to see how this was done:</u>

Tall stems (T) are dominant to short stems (t).

First figure out the genotypes of the parents. We have a short-stemmed plant and a heterozygous long-stemmed plant cross.

For short stem to occur, you need 2 pairs of short alleles. So the first parent would have a genotype of tt.

Heterozygous long-stemmed means that the parent has one of each allele. So the genotype of the second parent would be, Tt.

Now we can make our Punnett Square.

tt x Tt

<u>       t        t  </u>

<u>T |  Tt  |   Tt</u>

<u>t  |   tt  |   tt</u>

Let's list down the genotypes and phenotypic results.

Genotype        no.         Phenotype

     Tt                 2           Tall stemmed

     tt                  2           Short stemmed

So from that we can answer the other questions:

Genotypic ratio : 2:2 or 1:1

Phenotypic ratio: 2:2  or 1:1
