Answer:
The parent's genotypes are:
Ddpp - tall, white parent
ddPp - dwarf, purple parent.
Explanation:
This question involves two different genes coding for height and flower color in pea plants. The alleles for tallness (D) and purple color (P) are dominant over the alleles for dwarfness (d) and white color (p) respectively.
According to this question, a tall plant with white flowers is crossed with a dwarf plant with purple flowers to produce the following proportion of offsprings: 1/4 tall purple, 1/4 tall white, 1/4 dwarf purple, and 1/4 dwarf white.
Since some of the offsprings contain recessive alleles for both or either genes, the dominant traits of the parent is controlled by an heterozygous genotype. This means that the tall plant with white flowers has a genotype: Ddpp while the dwarf plant with purple flowers has the genotype: ddPp. In a cross between Ddpp × ddPp, 1/4 of each combination of alleles is produced in the offsprings (see punnet square in the attachment).
Answer:
Oxygen molecules in the tissues of the lung diffuse into the blood because the concentration of oxygen in the lung's tissues is more than the concentration of oxygen in the blood.
Explanation:
Diffusion is the movement of molecules from the region of higher concentration of the molecule to the region of lower concentration of the same molecule. Molecules in diffusion move <em>downward the concentration</em> <em>gradient</em> created by difference in concentration between two regions until an <em>equilibrium (equal concentration in the two regions)</em> is established.
Oxygen molecules diffuse into the tissues of the lung when an organism breathes-in during the process of breathing. The molecules in the now oxygen-rich tissues eventually start diffusing into the blood in the lung because the blood passing through the lung is always de-oxygenated or has lower oxygen concentration compared to the tissues of the lung.
Oxygenated blood moves into the heart, pumps round the body by the heart, gets depleted of oxygen and eventually find its way back to the lung where the process is repeated.
Diffusion of oxygen from the tissues of the lung into the blood will keep happening as long as oxygen keeps getting dissolved into the lung's tissues and an equilibrium is yet to be established between the tissues and the blood.
The answer is a person removes their hand after touching a hot stove and a person turns their head toward the source of loud noise.
External stimuli are factors outside of the body that is taken in by receptors and will lead to a response. Examples of external stimuli include temperature changes, vision, hearing, tasting, smelling, and even sunlight for plants.
