Gregor Mendel studied the inheritance of traits in pea plants. One trait he examined was the height of the plant. Pea plants wit

h the
dominant T allele grew tall, and pea plants with the recessive allele 't' were short. According to Mendel's principles of heredity, if a
homozygous tall pea plant was crossed with a homozygous short pea plant, approximately how many of their offspring would have
the short phenotype?

Answer:

0%

Explanation:

So, if you draw out a punnet square, (which I did, so you can see) a homozygous tall has two dominant alleles, so every offspring possibility will have to be tall.

3. Two black rabbits thought to be homozygous for coat colour were mated and produced a litter that contained all black babies.
Firdavs [7]

Answer:

Cross each to a rabbit who you know is homozygous - i.e. a white rabbit. If there are any white offspring you know this is the heterozygote.

Explanation:

Heterozygous individuals are those with 2 different alleles of a gene. Homozygous individuals have have 2 alleles that are the same.

Imagine the allele for coat color is B black, or b white. If you cross 2 individuals who are homozygous for the black gene (BB), they would only produce black rabbits in the F1 (BB). If you cross the F1, they could only produce BB rabbits in the F2.

However, if you cross a heterozygous rabbit with a homozygous black rabbit (Bb x BB), you would get either BB or Bb rabbits in the F1. However, intercrossing them could produce BB, Bb, or bb rabbits. Therefore, white rabbits can be produced.

You know that white rabbits are bb. So if you are unsure about the genotype of the black rabbit, you can cross it with a white rabbit (either BB x bb or Bb x bb). If any white rabbits appear in the F1, you know there must be a b allele in the black rabbit genotype, so that rabbit must be heterozygous.

¿Cómo es posible que se hayan encontrado antiguos sedimentos glaciares en zonas como la India situada junto al ecuador?
Lana71 [14]

Answer:

Si los continentes no se han movido, entonces esto sugeriría una capa de hielo que se extendía desde el polo sur hasta el ecuador en este momento, lo cual es poco probable ya que el Reino Unido en ese momento también estaba cerca del ecuador y tiene extensos depósitos de carbón y piedra caliza. Si los continentes del hemisferio sur se vuelven a ensamblar cerca del polo sur, entonces la capa de hielo Permo-Carbonífero asume un tamaño mucho más razonable. Más evidencia proviene de las estrías glaciales, arañazos en el lecho rocoso hechos por bloques de roca incrustados en el hielo como el glaciar se mueve. Estos muestran la dirección del glaciar y sugieren que el hielo fluyó desde un solo punto central.

Which of the following statements is true?
ziro4ka [17]
Lipids contain more energy that carbohydrates because they contain more carbon to hydrogen bonds to release energy when broken.

<span>A macromolecule is a large molecule. There are four groups of macromolecules: carbohydrates, proteins, nucleic acids and lipids. Lipids consist of glycerol and fatty acids and are constructed from fats, oils, waxes, phospholipids and steroids. A lipid's function is to insulate the body and provide warmth in cold conditions. It can be concluded that a person with very little body fat gets very cold easily and a person with a lot of body fat gets very warm very quickly.

Use the drop-down menus to identify the labeled organelles in the plant cell to the right.
nydimaria [60]

The plant cell is the smallest living structure and constituent unit of all plants. Its size and shape vary by function. It is composed of several organelles, all useful to its activity.

The right answers are: (the numbers are in the picture).

1 refer to a vacuole.

2 refer to a cell wall (if you see closer, the arrow is aiming the green layer, the yellow one is the cell membrane).

3. refer to a chloroplast.

4. refer to mitochondria.
