5. The F2 generation of a cross between a parental tall and a parental short pea plant is 298 tall plants and 102 short plants.

What do these results say about the genes for stem height in the pea plant?

Answer:

The answer is XX.

Explanation:

Let us say that X is the dominant gene and x is the recessive gene for the height of the pea plants. Pea plants need to be homozygous or heterozygous  to have the short phenotype which means it needs to have the genotype xx or Xx.

The F2 offspring has a ratio of 74,5% tall plants and 25,5% short plants. For these results, the stem height pea plant needs to be homozygous which is an XX genotype for the tall pea plant.

I hope this answer helps.

Fofino [41]

Answer:

plant: This Elodea leaf cell exemplifies a typical plant cell. It has a nucleus, and a stiff cell wall which gives the cell its box-like shape. The numerous green chloroplasts allow the cell to make its own food (by photosynthesis).

The central vacuole takes up most of the volume of the cell. It is transparent, but you can see where it's pressing the chloroplasts up against the cell wall, especially at the ends of the cell.

Like animal cells, the cytoplasm of this plant cell is bordered by a cell membrane. The membrane is so thin and transparent that you can't see it, but it is pressed against the inside of the cell wall.

animal :This human cheek cell is a good example of a typical animal cell. It has a prominent nucleus and a flexible cell membrane which gives the cell its irregular, soft-looking shape.

Like most eukaryotic cells, this cell is very large compared to prokaryotic cells. For scale, notice the pair of dark blue bacteria cells sticking to the right edge of the cheek cell. The bacteria are only a fraction of the size of the nucleus, but their tiny size is typical for bacteria.

Misha Larkins [42]

Answer:

Small head

Explanation:

Since the genes are located in the nucleus of a cell which has being removed (but some genes are still located in the mitochondria of the ocyte) from its ocyte to fuse it with with another nucleus. Since the cell follows a maternal inheritance of gene, it would have a small head because of the presence genes in the mitochondria.

ipn [44]

Answer:

The correct answer is -

1. hyaline cartilage

2.  fibrocartilage

3. hyaline cartilage

Explanation:

1. The hyaline cartilage covers the articular cartilage of the synovial joint that is translucent or clear as glass-like cartilage that has a firm consistency and a high amount of collagen.

2. A symphysis is an amphiarthrotic joint which is a fibrocartilagenous joint that joins with the adjacent bone. This is a very tough or strong tissue.

3. The growth plate of the long bone or epiphyseal plates are examples of synchondrosis,which is a hyaline cartilage composed tissue.

1. You are studying an integral membrane protein of the plasma membrane. It has a single transmembrane domain and the N-terminal
Drupady [299]

Answer:

A 22 to 25 amino acid sequence present in the central section of the protein, which gives rise to an alpha helix in the membrane is known as the stop-transfer anchor sequence. The sequence plays an essential function in targeting the protein towards the plasma membrane. On the other hand, it also ceases targeting of the protein towards the endoplasmic reticulum, which was started by the signal peptide.  

Thus, the process of translation of the remaining of the protein occurs within the cytosol due to the tethering of the transmembrane domain. In the stop-transfer anchor sequence, the hydrophobic amino acids present are isoleucine and valine. After mutation, these amino acids get converted into arginine and lysine, thus, hydrophilic amino acids replace hydrophobic amino acids in the sequence.  

Due to this, the transmembrane domain cannot be targeted towards an integral part of the plasma membrane by the short transfer anchor sequence, and therefore, now the translocation of the protein will take place towards the endoplasmic reticulum as initiated by the signal peptide at the beginning.
