Gregor Mendel crossed true-breeding plants with green pea pods with true-breeding plants with yellow pea pods. The resulting F1

generation all had green pea pods. What did he observe in the F2 generation?
A. Mendel observed green and yellow pea pods in a 3:1 ratio because the F1 generation was heterozygous.
B. Mendel observed green and yellow pea pods in a 4:1 ratio because the allele for green pea pods is dominant.
C. Mendel observed green and yellow pea pods in a 1:1 ratio because the F2 generation had the same characteristics as the parent generation.
D. Mendel observed only green pea pods because both parents had green pea pods.
E. Mendel observed green and yellow pea pods in a 1:2 ratio because the allele for yellow pea pods is dominant.

Answer:

A. Mendel observed green and yellow pea pods in a 3:1 ratio because the F1 generation was heterozygous.

Explanation:

The two true breeding plants in the parental population were homozygous (that is what true breeding means). Therefore, their cross would lead to all heterozygous offspring (see attached punnet square). Green is the dominant characteristic, so all F1 plants had a green phenotype, but Gg genotype.

The F1 cross would therefore be Gg x Gg. See attached punnet square.

The genotypes in the F2 generation are 1 GG: 2 Gg: 1 gg 1

Therefore, the phenotypic ratio is 3 green pea pods (Gg or GG): 1 yellow (gg)

What is a natural, nonspecific immune response, but it is part of the body's second line of defense?
Strike441 [17]

The adaptive immune response is the second line of defense against non-self pathogens. Adaptive immunity, also known as acquired immunity or specific immunity, is found only in vertebrates.

<h3>What is second line of defense?</h3>

Nonspecific resistance, which destroys invaders without targeting specific individuals, is the second line of defense: phagocytic cells ingest and destroy all microbes that enter body tissues.

The adaptive immune response is the body's second line of defense against non-self pathogens. Adaptive immunity, also known as acquired immunity or specific immunity, is found only in vertebrates.

Thus, adaptive immune system is a natural, nonspecific immune response, but it is part of the body's second line of defense.

Africa and South America are 4,000 km apart. If the plates move away from each other at a rate of 30 km per 1 million years, how
yulyashka [42]

Answer:

The majority of the research shows that the plates move at the average rate of between approximately 0.60 cm/yr to 10 cm/yr. Some sources state that in the North Atlantic, the rate of movement is only about 1 cm (about 0.4 in) per year, while in the Pacific it amounts to more than 4 cm (almost 2 in) annually, while others say that plates, in general, travel from 5 to 10 cm/yr.



The Eurasian Plate is moving away from the North American Plate at a rate the is about 3cm per year. That is about the same rate at which your fingernails will grow.



The distance from New York to London is in 3459 miles (5567 km). What will the distance be in 5 million years?.





The distance from New York to London in 5 million years will be 3552 miles (5717 km). So if today it takes us 7 hours and 30 minutes to fly to London at a speed of 460 miles per hour, in 5 million years at the same rate of speed will take us close to 8 hours.
