.What are the genotypes of the parents in the monohybrid cross below if the following offspring genotypes are predicted?

As you can see in the diagram presented below, the correct genotypes of the parents are TT and Tt.

Each parent give its children only one chromosome of the chromosome pair, therefore only one allele of the gene.

In our case, TT and Tt is the correct answer because one of the parents has to have the t allele to give to the Tt offspring.

But if both of the parents were Tt, one of the offspring would have tt genotype, and if the parents were TT and tt, all of the offspring would be Tt. Therefore, the TT x Tt combination is the only possible answer.

As we know that out of the two allelic pairs, each parent contributes only one allele at the time of gamete fusion, so these kind of progenies will be obtained only when both the parents are heterozygous for a particular trait.

Heterozygous parents for a particular trait produce off-springs with three types of genotypes mentioned as under :-

         Tt  x  Tt

                |

  TT    Tt      Tt      tt

It is clear from the above that basically 3 types of genotypes are obtained which are TT, Tt and tt.

If we will check the genotypes of all the off-springs in the question, they all will be included if a cross is made between parents with heterozygous genotype i.e. Tt x Tt.

Indicate whether each statement is true or false. 1. Rod cells are depolarized in the dark. (Click to select) 2. Glutamate binds
faltersainse [42]

Answer:

The correct answer is - 1. true, 2. true, 3. false, and 4. true.

Explanation:

1. Rod cells are the photoreceptors present in the retina that are hyperpolarized not depolarized in dark due to sodium ions efflux.

2. Depolarisation of the bipolar cell of the retina by glutamate release by rods and cones.

3. The adaption according to the light is known as a light adaptation which takes place due to a large part of photochemical in both rods and cones which is reduced to retinal and opsins.

4. when the light reaction takes place retinal converted to opsin

Explain why the vessels that transport water in trees must be very small in diameter.
kipiarov [429]

Answer:

The diameter of the xylem vessels should be small in order for the capillary action to take place.

Explanation:

The vessels through which water is transported to different parts of the plants and trees are the xylem. Water is transported in the trees through a mechanism named as capillary action. This mechanism can occur only if the diameter of the vessels are small.

The water molecules adhere to the walls of xylem and an upward force is generated. If the diameter of the vessels i.e xylem would be small then the surface tension between the xylem and water molecules would be enough to move the water in an upward direction.
