Drosophila may be monosomic for chromosome 4, yet remain fertile. A recessive mutant for bent bristles is identified on chromoso

me 4. Determine the genotypes of the F1 and F2 progeny for the following crosses.
The following cross is conducted of true-breeding adult flies: monosomic bent bristles x diploid normal bristles. Select the two F1 genotypes that will be produced from this cross
a. -/b+
b. -/b
c. b/b
d. b/b+
e. b+/b+

The answers are:
<span>a. -/b+
</span><span>d. b/b+</span>

b+ - the allele for normal bristles
b - the allele for bent pristles

Monosomic means there is only one instead of two alleles in a gene locus.
So, the parents' genotypes are:
<span>monosomic bent bristles: -/b
</span><span>diploid normal bristles: b+/b+

</span><span>The following cross is conducted of true-breeding adult flies:
Parents' phenotype: monosomic bent bristles x diploid normal bristles
Parents' genotype:                      -/b                   x              b+/b+
F1 generation:                       -/b+            -/b+                 b/b+            b/b+</span>

which statement correctly compares and contrast the three stages of cellluar respiration that occurs in the presence of oxygen
Lapatulllka [165]
<h2><u>Full Question:</u></h2>

Which statement correctly compares and contrasts the three stages of cellular respiration that occur in the presence of oxygen? Each stage occurs in the mitochondria, but only the final stage produces ATP. Each stage produces ATP, but only the third stage occurs in the mitochondria. Each stage produces ATP, but only the first stage occurs in the cytoplasm. Each stage occurs in the cytoplasm, but only the final stage produces ATP.

<h2><u>Answer</u>:</h2>

Each stage produces ATP, but only the first stage occurs in the cytoplasm.

<h3><u>Explanation</u>:</h3>

Cellular respiration is the process by which the glucose or any respiratory substrate is burned down inside a cell producing ATP or energy. This process of cellular respiration is seen in each and every living cell. The glucose is burned in the cytoplasm of the cell producing the pyruvate. This pyruvate is decarboxylated into Acetyl CoA and transferred inside the mitochondria. So the glycolysis or the 1st step of cellular respiration occurs in cytoplasm and rest inside the mitochondria.

ATP is produced from each astep of cellular respiration. So the correct option is option C.

Predict how the sympathetic reflexes controlling blood vessels would respond to a sudden decrease in blood pressure
Goryan [66]
<span>Baroreceptors are special receptors that detect changes in your blood pressure. Important baroreceptors are found in the aorta and the carotid sinus. If the blood pressure within the aorta or carotid sinus increases, the walls of the arteries stretch and stimulate increased activity within the baroreceptors.</span>
