How could the botanist best determine whether the genotype of the green-pod plant is homozygous or heterozygous?
murzikaleks [220]

Answer:

C

Explanation:

Homozygosity is when the two alleles (gene form) are the same while heterozygosity is when the alleles are of different types.

In a gene, an allele is capable of masking the expression of another. The allele being expressed or that masks is called the DOMINANT allele while the allele being masked is the RECESSIVE allele.

A recessive allele will only be expressed (phenotypically) if the two alleles are of the same type i.e. homologous but when a dominant phenotype is expressed, one cannot ascertain whether the organism is heterozygous or homozygous for that gene. e.g T is the gene coding for height in plant, T which represents tallness is dominant over t, representing shortness. In a heterozygous (Tt) and homozygous dominant (TT) state, the plant will be phenotypically tall but will only be short in a homozygous recessive (tt) state.

Since the plant will be tall in homozygous (TT) or heterozygous (Tt), we cannot detect the actual genotype of the plant. Hence, a test cross is done.

A test cross is a cross between a dominant phenotype and a homozygous recessive in order to determine the actual genotype of the dominant organism i.e. whether homozygous or heterozygous.

In this case involving pod color gene, since the botanist is trying to determine whether the genotype of the green pod plant is heterozygous or homozygous, it means the allele for green pod is dominant over that of yellow pod (recessive).

N.B: The recessive trait can only be expressed if it is homozygous. Therefore, the yellow pod plant has homozygous recessive genotype.

A test cross is conducted by the botanist to determine whether the green pod plant is heterozygous or homozygous by crossing it with a yellow pod plant (homozygous recessive).

If any of the offspring plants exhibit recessive traits i.e. yellow pods, it means the parent green pod plant is heterozygous but if all the offspring plants show phenotypic dominant traits i.e green pod, it means the parent green pod plant is homozygous.

the two paramecium species were grown alone then grown together in a culture. based in the graphs, what can you conclude about t
Feliz [49]

Answer:

The paramecium have a higher chance of survival when grown separately. Besides the chart, we can assume that the reason this is possible is that they have easier access to more resources, like food and water.

Where do the axons that enter the cortico-spinal tract originate? (The complete answer should include more than one of Brodmann’
torisob [31]

Answer:

<u>From the main motor cortex, Brodmann region 4 premotor areas and the primary somatosensory cortex .</u>

<u />

Explanation:

The corticospinal tract originates in many regions of the brain, including

  • the motor regions,
  • main somatosensory cortex
  • pre-motor regions

The corticospinal tract allows for voluntary control of motor functions.

30% of the neurons in the corticospinal regions are found in the primary motor cortex. 40% are split up in several regions; the parietal lobe, somatosensory cortex and the cingulate gyrus.

The axon is a tube enclosed in and insulated by the myelin sheath. It serves as a link to impulses for certain neurons that often comprise axon hillocks that are junctions between the axon and the cell body.

According to the envelope in Model 1, who is supposed to receive the letter?
matrenka [14]

If you are referring to the model attached, then the answer would be:

<u><em>Jane Doe</em></u>

This model demonstrates how one can categorize something based on certain information from general to specific characteristics. For example, many people have the same names, so how would we know who the person is referring to? Using specific details like the house number, building name or apartment, street and zip code will help narrow down who the letter is addressed to specifically. This is a method they use to organize organisms into specific classifications, based on specific characteristics.
