Why does a pea plant with the genotype Rr produce some gametes that have the allele for round seeds?

Amiraneli [1.4K]

Answer:

The correct answer is - due to the law of segregation.

Explanation:

In the given case the genotype of Rr and as we know R is a dominant characteristic for round seeds and r represents the recessive allele for wrinkled seeds in a pea plant. So if a plant has Rr in its genotype it means it is a phenotypically round pea plant due to dominance in this heterozygous case.

The law of segregation states that two alleles of a gene of a specific trait will be distributed randomly and there is an equal chance of each allele to end up in the gametes, similarly in this case both alleles can be segregated to gametes and it is a random process.

A particular protein largely lacks both secondary and tertiary structure. which factor, if any, is mainly responsible for the re

NemiM [27]

Entropy, is mainly responsible for the resting state of this protein.

Hydrogen bonds, disulfide bonds, and dipole-dipole interactions produce the complicated folding styles seen in secondary and tertiary structure. however, if a protein does not have these elements of structure, it'll undertake a kingdom in which its entropy is maximized.

Secondary shape is determined through hydrogen bonding within the amino acid chain backbone. Tertiary structure is the entire protein's form, decided Entropy Interplay and hydrophobic forces. The tertiary shape of a protein is the 3 dimensional shape of the protein. Disulfide bonds, hydrogen bonds, ionic bonds, and hydrophobic interactions all affect the form a protein takes.

The nonpolar amino acids have formed the nonpolar center of the protein, weak van der Waals forces stabilize the protein. furthermore, hydrogen bonds and ionic interactions between the polar, charged amino acids make a contribution to the tertiary structure.

Disclaimer: your question is incomplete, please see below for complete question

A. Entropy

B. Hydrogen bonds between amino acid residues

C. Dipole-dipole interactions

D. None of the above

I) predict which of the liquids would cause the largest decrease in mass of potato stick

oksian1 [2.3K]

Answer:

1 mol per dm3 sodium chloride solution

Explanation:

The liquid that would cause the largest decrease in the mass of the potato stick would be the one with <u>1 mole per dm3 sodium chloride solution.</u>

<em>The water potential of a solution depends on the molarity of the solution, the higher the molarity, the lower the water potential and vice versa. Hence, a solution with higher molarity has the tendency to osmotically draw more water from the potato stick than a solution with lower molarity.</em>

Therefore, the potato stick will have the largest decrease in mass in 1 mol per dm3 sodium chloride when compared to the 0.5 and 0.1 mole per dm3 solutions.
