9:3: 3:1 is the phenotypic ratio showing traits as black and long hair : black and short hair: chestnut and long hair: chestnut and short hair when a chestnut horse heterozygous for pacing and hair length with a hybrid horse.
Explanation:
Dominant trait = black hair colour (BB,Bb), trotting (TT,Tt) , long hair (LL,Ll)
recessive trait = chesnut hair colour (bb), pacing gait (tt), short hair(ll)
cross between chestnut horse heterozygous for pacing and hair length will have alleles as BbLl
alleles for hybrid horse will also be heterozygous Bb, Ll
Punnett square to show the cross:
BL Bl bL bl
BL BBLL BBLl BbLL BbLl
Bl BBLl BBll BbLl Bbll
bL BbLL BbLl bbLL bbLl
bl BbLl Bbll bblL bbll
phenotype ratio
black and long hair : black and short hair: chestnut and long hair: chestnut and short hair
9:3: 3:1 is the phenotype ratio.
Answer:
Option B, Apply auxin directly to the lower part of the stem opposite from the direction you want the stem to bend.
Explanation:
Options for the question are
A) Apply auxin directly to the shoot tip on the side to which you want the tip to bend.
B) Apply auxin directly to the lower part of the stem opposite from the direction you want the stem to bend.
C) Inject compounds that block auxin receptors into the part of the stem opposite from the direction you want the stem to bend.
D) Plant the roots in two different pots, and apply auxin to the root bucket that is on the same side as the direction you want the plant to bend.
Solution
Auxin is responsible for stem elongation by inhibiting growth of lateral buds. The movement of auxin is opposite to the direction of elongation of cells. Generally, Auxin moves to the dark side which is opposite to the direction i.e the lighter side in which cell elongate . Due to this growth pattern, the stem tip gets curved towards the light.
Hence, option B is correct
The answer is B. this has to be 20 characters long.
