In pea plants, the tall phenotype is dominant to the dwarf phenotype. If a heterozygous pea plant is crossed with a homozygous t

Answer: The probability of having an offspring that is dwarf in size is zero.

Explanation: Since tall phenotype is dominant to dwarf phenotype, let T represent allele for tall and t represent allele for dwarf. A heterozygous pea plant will have Tt genotype while a homozygous tall pea plant will have a TT genotype. A cross between them will produce two homozygous tall pea plants (TT) and two heterozygous tall pea plant (Tt). They will not have any offspring having a dwarf size. Therefore, the probability of having a dwarf offspring is zero.

Anarel [89]
The purpose for which a pedigree chart might be prepared is to identify the pattern of inheritance of a particular trait.
This pedigree chart is created so as to see which traits this new offspring has inherited from its ancestors and which may possibly be transferred onto a new offspring later on in its life. It is formed in order to find patterns of inheritance and see what the most important traits that get inherited are.

Why is the caloric value of some sugar alcohols less than 4 kcal/g? a. They cannot be transported into the mitochondria. b. None
avanturin [10]

Answer:

Option-C

Explanation:

The sugar alcohols are the carbohydrates which are neither considered sugars nor alcohols but they partially resemble the structure of both of these sugars and alcohol.

The sugar alcohols are naturally present in the vegetables and fruits but they are also artificially synthesised like xylitol, lactitol, mannitol and others.

They are considered the alternative from of sugar but they provide less energy as compared to carbohydrates like they provide about 0-3 kcal per gram whereas sugar provides 4 kcal per gram.

This difference is due to the reason that they are not completely absorbed by the human body and also they are incompletely metabolized therefore provide less energy.

Thus, Option-C is the correct answer.

Which of the following is a true statement about lava that contains large amounts of dissolved gases? Lava that produces violent
anygoal [31]

<u>Answer:</u>

<em>The dissolved gases produce violent eruption as they escape. </em>

<u>Explanation:</u>

Magma contains dissolved gases and these dissolved gases induce vapor <em>pressure on the magma.</em> The magma is able to remain in the dissolved state itself without erupting because this vapor pressure is less than the confining pressure of the <em>rock surrounding the magma. </em>

One the vapor pressure exceeds this confining pressure the dissolved gases begin to  expand and<em> forms small gas bubbles</em>.

The <em>density of these gas bubbles</em> called vesicles is less than the density of magma and thus naturally tries to push out. When the gas bubbles escape the magma is also pushed out. Thus greater <em>amount of dissolved gases result in violent eruptions. </em>
