Answer:

The first male was bb Ee, and the second male was bb EE.

Explanation:

In Labradors coat colour is controlled by two genes. Suppose the two genes are B and E. B produces black colour and recessive form bb gives brown colour. Gene E is epistatic over gene B in its recessive form which means that ee will produce yellow colour regardless of the genotype present of B gene.

The first case is possible if the female lab is bbee (yellow) and the male lab is bbEe (brown):

bbee X bbEe

        bE      be

be  bbEe    bbee

So half of the offspring will be brown (bbEe) and half of them will be yellow (bbee)

The second case is possible if the same female bbee mates with a brown male of different genotype which can be bbEE:

bbee X bbEE

         bE

be   bbEe

So all offspring will be brown (bbEe)

Hence, the first male was bbEe and the second male was bbEE.

Burka [1]

Answer:

The correct answer is - Transcribing information in the DNA sequence for use by the cell.

Explanation:

The transcription process is the process that involves copying the sequence of DNA, that sequence is the information or code for the particular protein, to make RNA molecule that brings the information to the ribosome where translation process initiated to produce amino acid chain.

In the given diagram, the cellular process is showing is transcription as there is transcribing the sequence is shown which copy the sequence that is used for the cell and a useful part of protein synthesis
