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.
Answer:
B. similar to the cells just treated with the dye - 0% dead
Explanation:
According to this question, an experiment was set up in which kidney cells were treated with a chemical for different amounts of time. Hence, the independent/manipulable variable is the CHEMICAL.
Based on the observation of the group of cells, a cell that has been damaged by the chemical will appear pink when treated with dye while a cell treated with only due but no chemical will not appear pink.
A NEGATIVE CONTROL is the group in an experiment that is not treated with the independent variable i.e. doesn't receive experimental treatment. Since the independent variable in this experiment is the CHEMICAL, the negative control will be the group that doesn't receive the chemical treatment. Hence, the negative control is similar to the cells just treated with the dye - 0% dead
Answer:
p = 0.34
Explanation:
The green allele is recessive, meaning two copies of q (qq) are required to be green. Conversely, animals that are either pp or pq will be blue.
If 44 organisms are green, that means 44 are qq.
For genotype frequencies, the equation is:
homozygous dominant genotype + heterozygous + homozygous recessive = 100%
Which is denoted as
p² + 2pq + q² = 1
We know that q² = 44/100 = 0.44
To work out q, we can do
= 0.66
For allele frequencies, the total must add up to 100%, so
p + q =1
We know that q= 0.66
So p = 0.34, because 0.66 + 0.34 = 1
Answer:
C
Explanation:
A)
DNA directs the synthesis of RNA.
B)
DNA splits into two strands of RNA.
C)
A strand of DNA is used as a template for the formation of RNA.
D)
Two strands of RNA are formed by copying each of the strands of DNA.
The correct answer would be that <u>a strand of DNA is used as a template for the formation of RNA.</u>
<em>Transcription is a process during which RNA is synthesized using DNA as a template. The coding strand of the DNA is utilized as a template for the formation of messenger RNA. During this process, the double helix structure of the DNA is unwound by an enzyme and the coding strand is bound by a short DNA strand at the beginning of a gene while another enzyme adds RNA nucleotide bases to elongate the short strand.</em>
The correct option is C.
