In a plant called jimsonweed, flowers can be white or purple. A jimsonweed plant with white flowers is crossed with a jimsonweed
STALIN [3.7K]

<u>Answer:</u>

Although statements are not given in the question, we could make the most possible deduction as follows:

The allele for purple flowers is dominant whereas allele for white flowers is recessive.

<u>Explanation:</u>

According to the question,

  1. Purple flower plant was crossed with white flower plant.
  2. All offsprings have purple flowers.

Here we have one possibility that both parents were homozygous but in their own traits. <u>Purple flower</u> plants were "PP" and white <u>flower plants</u> were "pp" So, the <u>first progeny</u> (direct offsprings) would have "Pp". So, as per considerations, purple is dominant allele which will mask the recessive allele thus defining the color of all offsprings as purple. However, further cross of their generation will definitely end up into purple and white flowers (3:1) but this condition is not mentioned in the statement.

nikdorinn [45]

Answer:

Motor nerves

Explanation:

Pulling the leg quickly from the sharp object is an example of reflex action. It includes sensory receptors, sensory neurons, interneurons, the control center (spinal cord), motor neurons and effector.

As soon as she steps on the glass piece, the receptors present in the skin of her foot sole sense it and send the information to the control center via sensory neurons. The spinal cord commands the muscles of the effector organ (leg) via motor neurons to move to step away from the glass piece.
