In cats, coat color is determined by allelic variation at a single autosomal locus, with black fur dominant to white fur. Two he

terozygous black cats are mated. What would be the probability of the following combinations of offspring in a litter of eight kittens?
a) All with black fur.

b) Five with black fur and three with white fur.

c) At least three of the kittens having white fur.

d) The firstborn kitten with white fur, and among the remaining seven kittens, three with black fur and four with white fur.

Answer:

Explanation:

Two Heterozygous Black cats mated

let 'B' be for the Black allele and 'b' for the white allele

hence the mating will be : Bb * Bb = BB , Bb , Bb, bb, BB, Bb, Bb, bb

a) Determine the probability that all kittens out of 8 kittens are black

That means the kittens will have 'BB' or 'Bb' alleles

probability of Black fur = 3/4

b) probability of 5 black and 3 white

probability of black = 3/4

probability of white  = 1/4

hence probability of 5 black = 3/4 * 5 =

What evidence does the dische test provide that helps confirm that dna was extracted from the strawberries. Why do you think it
vfiekz [6]

Ripe strawberries are an excellent source for extracting DNA because they are easy to pulverize and contain enzymes called pectinases and cellulases that help to break down cell walls. And most important, strawberries have eight copies of each chromosome (they are octoploid), so there is a lot of DNA to isolate.

What does DNA extracted from a strawberry look like?

Observe the line between the strawberry mixture and the alcohol. You will notice a white thread-like cloud appearing at this line. This is strawberry DNA. The DNA will clump together and float to the top of the alcohol layer.

What is unique about strawberry DNA?

Strawberries yield more DNA than any other fruit because they have eight copies of each type of chromosome. The long, thick fibers of DNA store the information for the functioning of the chemistry of life. DNA is present in every cell of plants and animals.

We intention extract DNA from fruit to investigate how it examines and feels. This procedure is identical to what scientists have to do before they can use the statement contained in this DNA. This announcement can be used to enhance crops so that they are more resistant to infection, insect invasion, or differences in climate.

You can measure and describe climate by walking out the door and describing current atmospheric conditions. true or False
Xelga [282]

Answer:

The answer is "False."

Explanation:

The sentence above is stating that you can<u> "measure"</u> and describe climate by "walking out the door and describing current atmospheric conditions." This is "false" because climate cannot be measured by qualitative descriptions or subjectively. Measuring it entails quantity which is objective in nature. An example of this is by using "thermometers" or "rain gauges."

Although you can describe the atmospheric condition or the climate just by walking out the door,<em> you can never measure it.</em>

Thus, this explains the answer.
