In garden peas, one pair of alleles controls the height of the plant, and a second pair of alleles controls flower color. The al

lele for tall (D) is dominant to the allele for dwarf (d), and the allele for purple (P) is dominant to the allele for white (p). A tall plant with white flowers crossed with a dwarf plant with purple flowers produces 1/4 tall purple, 1/4 tall white, 1/4 dwarf purple, and 1/4 dwarf white. What is the genotype of the parents

Answer:

The parent's genotypes are:

Ddpp - tall, white parent

ddPp - dwarf, purple parent.

Explanation:

This question involves two different genes coding for height and flower color in pea plants. The alleles for tallness (D) and purple color (P) are dominant over the alleles for dwarfness (d) and white color (p) respectively.

According to this question, a tall plant with white flowers is crossed with a dwarf plant with purple flowers to produce the following proportion of offsprings: 1/4 tall purple, 1/4 tall white, 1/4 dwarf purple, and 1/4 dwarf white.

Since some of the offsprings contain recessive alleles for both or either genes, the dominant traits of the parent is controlled by an heterozygous genotype. This means that the tall plant with white flowers has a genotype: Ddpp while the dwarf plant with purple flowers has the genotype: ddPp. In a cross between Ddpp × ddPp, 1/4 of each combination of alleles is produced in the offsprings (see punnet square in the attachment).

Because lymph vessels are very low-pressure conduits, movements of adjacent tissues are important in propelling lymph through th
Fudgin [204]

Answer:

True.

Explanation:

Lymphatic system is one of the most important system of the body that carries the lymph fluid towards the heart. This system plays an important role in the body immune system.

The pressure in the lymph vessels are very low. The movement of adjacent tissue in the lymph is important to propel it through the lymphatics. The intrinsic or extrinsic compression are important for the lymph flow.

Thus, the correct answer is True.

How did the frameshift change the amino acids?<br> Please it’s due today
notka56 [123]
A single insertion or deletion of a nucleotide will basically lead to a frameshift mutation where the “reading frame” is disrupted. Normally, amino acids are encoded by three nucleotides, called a codon.

What happens to the air that a emperor penguin breathes in?
enot [183]
Emperor penguins need lungs to breathe. In penguin lungs, air never stops. ... Once the air goes farther into the trachea it splits into two different directions into both lungs. To get the oxygen into the blood cells, it must come "within small distance of the penguin blood cells".

Why is the "movie" becoming more and more important to Steve​
Rainbow [258]

Answer:

The movie becomes more important to Steve because it represents its fears and the rationalization of it being a fantasy allows him to overcome them.

Explanation:

The reason behind this answer is that in the ned, Steve is very scared and wants to overcome his fears. However, he can face them because they are not real. Thus, he needs the movie because he can fight them and don't fail against them. He wants to grow, to overcome them and that is why he needs it. It is a mechanism for him to grow, he knows it and he pushes himself to do it.
