Pluots are a fruit produced by cross-breeding plums and apricots. The outside of the fruit resembles the skin of a plum, while t

he inside has a flavor that resembles that of apricots. Is this an example of a new crop generated through breeding for optimization of a specific trait? Explain your answer using an example you've learned about in this activity.

Coat color in a dog breed is determined by incomplete dominance where three colors are produced (Brown, tan and white), and the
8_murik_8 [283]

Genotypes of the dog color are:

BB dominant homozygous-brown phenotype

bb recessive homozygous-white phenotype

Bb heterozygous-tan phenotype

Cross between brown and pan dog would be:

P: BB x Bb

F1: BB  Bb  BB  Bb

The ratio would be 1:1 (brown dog:pan dog).

In the Miller-Urey experiment, electrical sparks were passed through a mixture of gases, including hydrogen, water vapor, methan
STatiana [176]

Answer:

The answer is B. Some organic molecules, including amino acids, could have been produced from chemical reactions on early Earth.

Explanation:

Miller-Urey Experiment:

The Miller-Urey experiment was an attempt to explain the origin of life on Earth. Miller-Urey simulated the primordial soup i.e. the environment of primitive Earth to prove the spontaneous generation of organic molecules. The conditions they introduced included:

  1. A methane-ammonia-hydrogen and water mixture that exactly simulated the primordial soup.
  2. A spark of 70,000 volts that simulated lightening.
  3. A temperature of 800 degree Celsius.

Observations:

  • After running for 18 days, the final solution was examined for presence of organic molecules.
  • Miller-Urey observed that most of the methane and ammonia had been consumed and the mixture contained carbon monoxide and nitrogen.
  • The solution further contained 25 amino acids (mainly, glycine, alanine and aspartic acid) , several fatty acids , hydroxy acids  and amide products.

The experiment concluded that simple organic compounds such as amino acids could have been formed through spontaneous generation under the Earth's primitive environmental conditions.

In pea plants, the allele for tall stalks (T) is dominant over the allele for short stalks (t). Suppose a cross between a tall p
vazorg [7]

Answer:

Tt - 1/2

tt - 1/2

Explanation:

<em>A cross between a tall pea plant and a short pea plant that produces 43 tall and 47 short offpsring (almost 1:1) is most likely a cross involving a heterozygous tall individual and a homozygous short individual.</em>

Tt   x   tt

Offspring = Tt   Tt   tt   tt (50% tall and 50% short)

If one of the tall offspring (Tt) is crossed with one of the short offspring (tt):

Tt   x   tt

Offspring = Tt   Tt   tt   tt

Genotype ratio = 2Tt:2tt

Hence,

Tt = 1/2

tt = 1/2
