If two individual are heterozygous for both traits then there genotype will each look like this PpLl. To find the probability, you need to do a cross with both traits. Each parent has the possibility of giving the following combinations: PL, Pl, pL, pl.

Polka dot tail/ long lashes: 9/16
Polka dot tail/ short lashes: 3/16
Solid Tail / long lashes: 3/16
solid tail/ short lashes 1/16

The answer is (C) 9:3:3:1 ratio with 9 polka dot tails and long eyelashes, 3 polka dot tails and short eyelashes, 3 solid tails and long eyelashes (there seems to be a typo in the question) and 1 short tail short eyelash

Answer:

D: 4.6 x 10^{9}

Explanation:

4.6 x 10^{9} = 4,600,000,000

Earth is approximately, 4.6 billion = 4,600,000,000 = 4.6 x 10^{9}

What would be the expected result if a competitive, nonhydrolyzable analog of ATP were applied to the cytoplasmic side of a plas
Yakvenalex [24]

Answer:

The cell interior would experience higher than normal Na+ concentrations and lower than normal K+ concentrations.

Explanation:

The Na/⁺K⁺ pump is an ATPase pump which is responsible for maintaining low Na⁺ and high K⁺ concentrations within the cytoplasm while maintaining high Na⁺ and low K⁺ concentrations in the extracellular fluid.

Since these two ions are moved against their concentration gradient, ATP hydrolysis is required to provide the energy for this process. This is done by moving in two K⁺ ions  inside while moving three Na⁺ ions outside the cell for every molecule of ATP hydrolysed to ADP and Pi.

If a competitive non-hydrolyzable analog of ATP is applied on the cytoplasmic side of a plasma membrane that contained a large concentration of the Na/⁺K⁺ pump, it will act by inhibiting the action of the Na/⁺K⁺ pump. This will result in an accumulation of Na⁺ ions inside the cell and lower than normal K⁺ ions concentration.
