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

e, W- means the individual has either the genotype WW or Ww. In summer squash, genotypes W- G- and W- gg are white, ww G- are yellow, and ww gg are green. W and G show independent assortment. What is the ratio of white : yellow : green among progeny of the cross Ww Gg × Ww Gg?

Answer:

12 : 3 : 1

Explanation:

According to Mendel's principles, a dihybrid cross between two heterozygous summer squash parents (WwGg X WwGg) should yield offsprings, 12 with white, 3 with yellow and  1 with green color phenotype. The classic Mendelian phenotypic ratio for dihybrid cross is 9:3:3:1. In this case, genotypes W- G- and W- gg produce white color phenotype. This is because we have 12: 3: 1 phenotypic ratio in which the alleles of two different genes assort independently into gametes.

<em>Dihybrid cross for heterozygous summer squash:</em>

                    WG         Wg            wG            wg          

    WG      WWGG   WWGg     WwGG     WwGg

    Wg       WWGg   WWgg     WwGg      Wwgg

    wG        WwGG    WwGg     wwGG      wwGg

      wg       WwGg    Wwgg     wwGg        wwgg

   Genotypes:

   W-G-  and W- gg  = white = 12

    ww G- = yellow = 3

     ww gg = green = 1

The fluid-mosaic model of membrane structure includes the following: A Option A: a lipid bilayer. B Option B: membrane proteins.
Mila [183]

Answer:

Option D

Explanation:

In 1972, the fluid mosaic model was proposed by S. J. Singer and G. L. Nicolson to describe the structure of the plasma membrane found I living cells. The model describes the plasma membrane to possess components including phospholipid, proteins and cholesterol.

The phospholipid is arranged in two layers comprising of glycerol, two fatty acids and a phosphate group. The fatty acids which forms the tail are hydrophobic (water-fearing) while the phosphate group is water-loving (hydrophobic) giving the plasma membrane an AMPHIPATHIC nature. The other component as proposed by the model are membrane proteins and cholesterol, all responsible for the fluidity of the membrane.
