Answer:

75%

Explanation:

This question involves a single gene coding for flower color in pea plants. The allele for purple flowers (T) is dominant over the allele for white flowers (t).

According to the question, two heterozygous purple-flowered plants (Tt) are crossed i.e. Tt × Tt. The following gametes will be produced by each parent; T and t. Using these gametes in a punnet square (see attached image), the following proportion of offsprings will be produced:

TT, Tt, Tt, and tt.  

Since purple allele (T) is dominant, offsprings TT, Tt, and Tt will be phenotypically purple-flowered. Hence, ¾ × 100 = 75% of offsprings will have purple flowers.

The _____ theory of dreaming proposes that dreaming occurs when the cerebral cortex synthesizes neural signals generated from ac
jeka94

Answer:

The correct answer is- activation synthesis theory

Explanation:

The activation-synthesis theory tells us about the role of neuron in dream production during sleep. It was first proposed in 1977 by Allan Hobson and Robert McCarley which was psychiatrists at Harvard University.

This theory says that in REM sleep some neurons in the lower brains for example in the brain stem randomly activates due to change in neural signals and dream occurs when the cerebral cortex tries to interpret the meaning of these neuron signal changes.  

So the correct answer to this question is- activation-synthesis theory.

Can you write a short summary about DNA. The main facts and purposes plz and thankyou... WILL UPVOTE
fiasKO [112]
DNA, or deoxyribonucleic acid, is the hereditary material in humans and almost all other organisms. The information in DNA is stored as a code made up of four chemical bases: adenine (A), guanine (G), cytosine (C), and thymine (T). <span>DNA bases pair up with each other, A with T and C with G, to form units called base pairs. Each base is also attached to a sugar molecule and a phosphate molecule. Together, a base, sugar, and phosphate are called a nucleotide. Nucleotides are arranged in two long strands that form a spiral called a double helix. The structure of the double helix is somewhat like a ladder, with the base pairs forming the ladder’s rungs and the sugar and phosphate molecules forming the vertical sidepieces of the ladder.</span>
