In a certain plant, the allele for red flower color (R) is dominant over the allele for white flower color (r). A cross is perfo

rmed between a plant with red flowers and a plant with white flowers. The offspring are 47 plants with red flowers and 51 plants with white flowers. What are the genotypes of the parent plants?

Answer:

Rr and rr

Explanation:

The genotypes of the parents would be heterozygous red (Rr) and true-breeding white (rr).

<em>Since the allele for the red flower color (R) is dominant over that of the white flower color (r), for a cross to produce both red and white flower color plants, the red parent must be heterozygous (Rr) and the white parent true-breeding (rr). </em>

       Rr    x    rr

   Rr    Rr    rr    rr

Rr = red

rr = white

If the red parents is true-breeding

        RR    x    rr

      Rr    Rr   Rr    Rr

All their offspring would be red without any white flower color.

Hence, the genotypes of the parent are Rr and rr.

Tcecarenko [31]

Answer:

True

Explanation:

This process is called Chemiosmotic Theory.

Two different solutions with a semi-permeable barrier (it allows to pass throw just water or solute, not both) will try to get into equilibrium.

Then, if you allows to pass just water though the barrier, it will go from the solution with less solute to the solution with more solute, in order to reach the solution equilibrium.

Answer:

Explain the terms “criteria” and “constraints.” Criteria are things the design needs to do in order to be successful--its requirements. Constraints are limitations on the design. These may be materials available, the cost of the materials, the amount of time they have to develop the solution, etc.

Design criteria are the explicit goals that a project must achieve in order to be successful. ... Design criteria can be divided into primary and secondary criteria. Primary criteria are those that constitute a successful project; the project will be unsuccessful if it does not meet these goals.
