Mendel bred a purple-flowered pea plant with a white-flowered pea plant and found that all the offspring had purple flowers. But

then when he bred together two of the purple-flowered offspring, some of their offspring had white flowers. Using the concepts of dominant and recessive alleles, explain how the trait of white flowers skipped a generation.

Purple is dominant to white flowered.
Purple gene(which occurs in pairs of PP which are both dominant alleles) crossed with a recessive pp(white flowered) after crossing, all the offspring had Pp. Purple being dominant suppressed the white(p).
after crossing the offspring, (Pp and Pp) a quarter the offspring lacked the dominant allele P hence allowing the recessive colour white to be shown.

Why would a diverse community be more resistant to disease, predation, and invasion
Shtirlitz [24]

Answer and explanation;

-A diverse community would be more resistant to disease, predation, and invasion because it would be a bigger diversity of genes, which means that the chance of disease would be more likely to spread in a different area than in a diverse population.

-Diversity is expected to increase the resilience of ecosystems. A diverse community would be more resistant to disease because of simple biology. The more sources for possible resistance the better the heterogeneous pool will be at resisting disease.

-High diversity strengthens a community and prevents invasion of the introduced predator. After a gradual loss of native species, the introduced predator can escape control and the system collapses into a contrasting, invaded, low-diversity state.

Explain why people who inherit one mutated allele of the brca1 gene have a higher likelihood of developing cancer
alex41 [277]
<span>The genes BRCA1 and BRCA2 are the genes that suppress the growth of tumors in the body. If there is a mutation in any of these two genes, there will be a lower chance of inhibiting tumor growth. This will lead to a higher chance of cancer and tumor development in the body.</span>

suppose you have the monohybrid pea plants in your garden and find that they produce round seed to wrinkled seeds in the ration
Arisa [49]

Answer;

The correct answer would be Rr.

In a monohybrid cross, the phenotype ratio of 3:1 is obtained only when both the parents are heterozygous for the trait.

In this condition, the heterozygous genotype would be Rr. The phenotype of both the parents would be round seeds (R) as the round is a dominant trait.

The cross of these parents would produce offspring with three types of genotypes RR, Rr, and rr in ratio 1:2:1.

Thus, the phenotypic ratio would come out to be 3 (round seed):1 (wrinkled seed).
