A new human species was found on a distant planet, whose genetic inheritance and process of reproduction is identical to that of

Vedmedyk [2.9K]

Answer:

E/e ; T/t ⇒ Square eyes and long tail (Option D)
3/16 will have round eyes and long tails (Option C)
1/4 of the progeny will be heterozygous for both traits (Option A)

Explanation:

Available data:

Two diallelic unlinked genes
Gene E controls eye shape: Dominant allele E expresses square eyes, and recessive allele e expresses round eyes.
Gene T controls the tail size. Dominant allele T expresses long trail, and recessive allele t expresses short tail.

Genotypes Phenotypes

EETT, EeTT, EETt, EeTt Square eyes and Long tail

eeTT, eeTt Round eyes and Long tail

EEtt, Eett Square eyes and Short tail

eett Rounf eyes and short tail.

1. An individual of this new species is heterozygous for gene E and heterozygous for gene T. What is their genotype and phenotype?

The heterozygous individual is E/e ; T/t, expressing square eyes and a long tail.

2. Two individuals, who are both heterozygous for eye shape and tail size, mate. Which of the following is a correct statement about the phenotype ratios expected for their offspring?

Cross: between two heterozygous individuals

Parentals) EeTt x EeTt

Gametes) ET, Et, eT, et

ET, Et, eT, et

Punnett square) . ET Et eT et

ET EETT EETt EeTT EeTt

Et EETt EEtt EeTt Eett

eT EeTT EeTt eeTT eeTt

et EeTt Eett eeTt eett

F1) Genotype:

1/16 EETT
2/16 EETt
1/16 EEtt
2/16 EeTT
4/16 EeTt ⇒ 1/4 EeTt
2/16 Eett
1/16 eeTT
2/16 eeTt
1/16 eett

Phenotype

9/16 E-T-, Square eyes and Long tails
3/16 E-tt, Square eyes and short tails
3/16 eeT-, Round eyes and Long tails
1/16 eett, round eyes and short tail

Phenotypic ratio 9:3:3:1

3. From the mating described in question ABOVE, what proportion of ALL of the offspring in will be heterozygous for both traits?

4/16 = 1/4 = 25% of the progeny are expected to be heterozygous for both traits, EeTt.

The image above shows the natural progression of a forest in a process called ecological succession. If a mature climax forest i

liubo4ka [24]

Explanation:

The community may enter primary succession.

Ecological communities are highly dynamic- they gradually evolve. Typically their progression involves:

colonizing species exploiting uninhabited areas (Primary succession)
becoming a habitable and increasingly complex community
there is increased diversity of organisms (Secondary)

The makeup of biological communities is crucial to defining Primary and Secondary succession; eventually, through changes in this makeup, a steady-state or equilibrium is reached called a climax community. While Primary succession starts off with the modification of a previously unoccupied area along with increasing variation; secondary succession begins after major disruption in the community such as fires, storms and flooding.

Like the harvested climax forest, secondary communities do not begin with the removal of soil and all biological life; other species, may be more suited to the altered conditions and begin to modify the area creating a new community.

However, the process of becoming a climax community can be pretty complicated- it is very dependent on other factors like temperature and rainfall. Communities that experience rapid change, frequent major disruptions and even human intervention, are less likely to attain a stable equilibrium and may never become climax communities.
