There is a teacher from Texas that loves hairless guinea pigs. In guinea pigs, the dominant allele H codes for the trait of havi

ng hair and the allele h codes for the trait of being hairless. Let’s say that this teacher receives her wish of finding a hairless guinea pig at a pet store and names her Genevieve. She finds another guinea pig at a store with hair that she names Fred. While she can be certain of Genevieve’s genotype, how could she determine what genotype Fred is? She can do a test cross! A test cross involves breeding an organism with a dominant trait with an organism that exhibits a recessive trait.
1. Genevieve has the genotype _____.

2. Fred’s genotype could be _____ or _____.

2. Explain in your own words how the offspring from the test cross could help determine Fred’s genotype.

3. What could be some weaknesses with using a test cross to determine Fred’s genotype?

Nitrogen is important
uranmaximum [27]

Plants and animals could not live without nitrogen. It is an important part of many cells and processes such as amino acids, proteins, and even our DNA. It is also needed to make chlorophyll in plants, which plants use in photosynthesis to make their food and energy.

Nitrogen is an important component of many essential structural, genetic and metabolic compounds in plant cells. It is also an elementary constituent of numerous important organic compounds including amino acids, proteins, nucleic acids, enzymes, and the chlorophyll molecule.

Of all the essential nutrients, nitrogen is the one that is most often limiting for crop growth. Nitrogen is the nutrient which normally produces the greatest yield response in crop plants, promoting rapid vegetative growth and giving the plant a healthy green color.

In pigs, curly tails (T) are dominant over straight tails (t). If a pig is heterozygous for a curly tail, what is the pig's geno
n200080 [17]

Answer:

The pig's genotype is Tt

Explanation:

As mentioned in the question that curly hair allele T is dominant over straight tail allele t.

A heterozygous organism is that in which both alleles for a trait are different. Since Curly hair allele T is dominant over straight tail t, it means that the pig with curly tail and heterozygous genotype will definitely have a genotype of Tt.

Hope it helps! :)
