In genetics, the dash symbol (–) is a "wild card" that stands for either the dominant allele or the recessive allele; for exampl

e, A– means the individual has either the genotype AA or Aa. Two genes that undergo independent assortment affect flower color in sweet peas. Each gene as two alleles, one of which is dominant for flower color. Genotypes of the form A– B– have purple flowers, whereas those of the form A– bb, aa B–, and aa bb have white flowers. What ratio of purple : white is expected from the cross Aa Bb × Aa Bb?
Hint: This type of epistasis is known as "duplicate recessive epistasis."

Answer:

Option A, 9:7

Explanation:

Given,

Genotype of A-B- have purple color

A-B-  have genotype AABB, AaBb, AaBB, AABb

While genotype of A– bb, aa B–, and aa bb have white flowers

A– bb have genotype - AAbb, Aabb

aa B– have genotype aaBb, aaBB

Cross between Aa Bb and AaBb will give following offspring

AB         Ab         aB          ab

AB AABB AABb AaBB AaBb

Ab AABb AAbb AaBb Aabb

aB AaBB AaBb aaBB aaBb

ab AaBb AAbb aaBb aabb

So the possible genotypes and their corresponding phenotypes are  

AABB-1 (Purple)

AABb-1 (Purple)

AaBB-3 (Purple)

AaBb -4 (Purple)

AAbb-2 (White)

Aabb-1 (White)

aaBB-1 (White)

aaBb-2 (White)

aabb-1 (White)

Purple : White = 9:7

A certain area received a large amount of rain and some of it remained on top of the soil. What happened to the rest of this wat
ValentinkaMS [17]

In the large rainfall is some water remains in the top of the soil the rest of this water is seeped into the ground.

<u>Explanation:</u>

  • Mainly the absorption of water by the ground depends upon the nature and the fertility of the soil.  
  • When the ground receives the water it mainly accounts for the absorption and then there will be a runoff. The absorption helps to raise the level of groundwater for future usage.
  • The amount of water that can get into the soil mainly depends upon the permeability of the soil surface. The water which can't infiltrate in the soil runs off into the water bodies.  
  • The water is an essential requirement for survival and the existence of biological organisms.

How does a vascular system serve the needs of a plant cell??
saw5 [17]
We first have to understand what a vascular system is. A vascular system consists of the water-carrying tube(xylem) and food-carrying tube(phloem). These 2 tubes are very essential for plants to survive. The xylem transports water to the leaves thru the stem to nourish the leaves so as to make food. The word equation is : Water + Carbon dioxide ----> Glucose + Oxygen. The phloem on the other hand transports the food from the leaves that creates them amd sent them to all parts of the plant. It is often a misconception that food is only sent to the fruits. The plant receives nutrition from the food that is made by the leaves. Overall the vascular system plays a very importamt roles in the survival of the plant.

To put it simple, think of the vascular system of a plant like the circulatory system of a human. Without the circulatory system, the human is unable to receive oxygen for breathing and remove carbon dioxide which is acidic in nature and pose a threat to the human body.
