Because the three-horned alien is heterozygous, we know that three must be dominant to four, because the gene for the three horns is "hiding" the gene for four horns. Therefore, the three-horned alien has the genotype Tt (T for three horns, and t for four horns). The four horned alien must be tt, because that is the only way that a recessive trait may be seen. If you solve the punnet square on a cross between Tt and tt, you end up with half three (heterozygous) and half four (homozygous recessive) it is a bit easier to explain with something a little "closer to home" if you want me to explain it again, just say so, I don't mind!
Answer:
3/4
Explanation:
If we assume simple dominance and independent assortment for each trait, we can use Mendel's Law of Segregation to predict the phenotypic proportions in the offspring of the parental cross AABBCc x AabbCc.
<h3><u>Gene A</u></h3>
AA x Aa
- F1 genotypes: 1/2 AA, 1/2 Aa
- F1 phenotypes: all A
<h3 /><h3><u>Gene B</u></h3>
BB x bb
- F1 genotypes: 1 Bb
- F1 phenotypes: all B
<h3 /><h3><u>Gene C</u></h3>
Cc x Cc
- F1 genotypes: 1/4 CC, 2/4 Cc, 1/4 cc
- F1 phenotypes: 3/4 C, 1/4 cc
We want to know the proportion of progeny with all dominant phenotype (A_B_C_). Since the genes are independent, we can multiply the probabilities of each gene to obtain the overall probability of having a ABC progeny:
<h3>1 A_ x 1 B_ x 3/4 C_ = 3/4 A_B_C_</h3>
Answer:
Plants have tissues to transport water, nutrients and minerals. Xylem transports water and mineral salts from the roots up to other parts of the plant, while phloem transports sucrose and amino acids between the leaves and other parts of the plant.
pls mark brainliest. Thank you
C. Dependent variable
The independent variable is what you want to change (ex amount of light given to plants)
The dependent variable is what changes because of the independent variable (ex the height of the plants)
So Independent is what you change, Dependent is what you measure
