Answer:

6 months to 15 years.

Explanation:

However there is no exact time limit to decomposing, it could take up to 6 months to 15 years. To decompose it really relies on the temperature and the state of the environment.

Hope this helps!

Answer:

F1 generation: RrUu, rrUU, rrUu, RrUU

25% : 25%: 25%: 25%

Ratios

genotype: 1: 1: 1: 1 ...(from punnet square)
phenotype: 1 : 1

Explanation:

Punnett squares are a diagrammatic way of deciding the characteristics of hybrid offspring created by crosses in genetic breeding. Parental genotypes and phenotypes are widely recognized, and all usually obey normal Mendelian ratios and inheritance.

Mendelian genetics focuses on the origin or heritability of characteristics. Such traits are packed into one's own gamete, acquired by themselves, and sometimes display superiority, where one's impact can mask those of another trait.

These are called the Law of Segregation, Independent assortment and Dominance respectively.

For this cross... Assuming:

Unattached lobes= dominant

Rolling tongue= dominant
Parent generation or P generation:

Gametes:

R → rolling dominant (R), non-rolling recessive (r)

U → unattached dominant (U), attached recessive (u)

P generation: RUrU× rUru

rolling, unattached × non-rolling, unattached

F1 generation: RrUu, rrUU, rrUu, RrUU

25% : 25%: 25%: 25%

Ratios

genotype: 1: 1: 1: 1 ...(from punnet square)
phenotype: 1 : 1

<em><u>Half the offspring have unattached lobes and can roll their tongues while the other half have unattached lobes and cannot roll their tongues...</u></em>

Each punnet cross is attached below

magine you are trying to determine the phenotypic ratio of hair color. Brown (B) hair color is the dominant trait and blonde (b)

skad [1K]

Answer:

1:1 (brown:blonde)

Explanation:

Brown hair color (B) is dominant over blonde hair color (b).

Heterozygous parent will have the genotype Bb

Homozygous recessive parent will have the genotype bb.

Crossing hetezygous parent with homozygous recessive parent:

Bb x bb

Progeny: Bb, Bb, bb, and bb.

2 Bb brown hair

2 bb blonde hair

Phenotypic ratio = 1:1 (brown:blonde)

The correct answer is 1:1 (brown:blonde).

Positively charged DNA migrates more rapidly than negatively charged DNA b. Longer DNA fragments migrate farther on a gel than s

CaHeK987 [17]

Answer:

<h2>c. Migration distance on a gel is inversely proportional to DNA fragment size </h2>

Explanation:

Deoxyribonucleic acid is a genetic material that is a type of macromolecule.
It is made up of a monomer that ais called a nucleotide. Each nucleotide is made up of a deoxyribose sugar, a base, and a phosphate group.
Due to the presence of phosphate group DNA has negative property. When the DNA is separated by the gel electrophoresis method the size of the fragment of the DNA plays an important role.
Those DNA fragments that are small in size migrate faster than those DNA fragments that are larger in size.
So the migration distance is inversely proportional to the DNA fragment size.
