Answer:
1. tall (or heterozygous)
2. 3:1
3. carriers
4. Each parent organism contributes one copy of its alleles in a seemingly random fashion to its offspring, as meiosis to create gametes (egg or sperm cells) reduces the number of genes by half. Therefore, each gamete contributes only one allele.
5. A Punnett square is a diagram used to map out the possible genotypes of a child given the genotypes of its parents. In a Punnett square, the genotype of one parent is listed in the first row of the square, and the genotype of the second parent is listed in the first column. Then, in the middle squares, all possible genotypes of their offspring are listed, and the phenotypes are calculated using the law of dominance.
6. Purebred strains of organisms always produce heterozygous offspring in the first generation, with all members of the first generation exhibiting the dominant trait for the gene of interest. The second generation typically has a 3:1 mix of dominant and recessive phenotypes, respectively.
7. Punnett squares predict that the second generation of two distinct purebred homozygotes for a trait will have a 3:1 ratio of dominant to recessive traits. Mendel did careful statistical analysis on his hybridization experiments and found that, for each of his seven characteristics of interest, the ratio was approximately, but not exactly, 3:1. Therefore, Mendel's experimental observations match the predictions of Punnett squares quite well.
Explanation:
OPTIONS:
a. When there are just two other people at the party.
b. When everyone is wearing a nametag.
c. When there are more than 50 people attending the same party.
d. When the need for help from the person who is having a heart attack is very clear
Answer:
c. When there are more than 50 people attending the same party.
Explanation:
Bystander effect is a term used in social psychology to describe the tendency of an individual to intervene in the event of an emergency to offer help to the person needing it, when others are present at the scene of the emergency.
In the case of an emergency just like the scenario stated in the question, where someone develops a heart attack at a dance party, if the party has more people, the slimmer the chance of the person getting help from any of the 50 people at the party, as the presence of others would tend to discourage the any individual from attempting to help the victim having the heart attack.
The situation that would more likely show the bystander intervention effect is <em>"c. When there are more than 50 people attending the same party."</em>
Answer:
The options:
What would be the next step in this experiment?
A. construct a hypothesis and record data
B. make observations and draw a conclusion
C. ask questions and construct a hypothesis
D. analyze the results and make a conclusion
The ANSWER should be D
D. analyze the results and make a conclusion
Explanation:
It should be D, the hypothesis has been proposed by her and she's left with conclusion on the experiment. From the type of exleriment, she has little observations to make since there's is a remote conclusion in a set time period.

Complete Question:
Students investigated samples of amylase from 100 goats. 100 small filter paper discs were each soaked in a different sample of goat amylase. The students tested the activity of these amlyase samples using plain paper. Plain paper contains starch.
A circle of plain paper was placed into a Petri dish ad shown in the diagram below. Iodine solution was used to stain the starch in the plain paper.
When iodine solution reacts with the starch in the plain paper, what colour would you see?
Answer:
The colour that would be seen is blue black .
Explanation:
Amylase is an enzyme that is involved in the breaking down or hydrolyses of starch.
When Amylase reacts with iodine, it speeds up the rate of reaction of the hydrolysis of the starch present in the plain paper.
The colour that would be observed is a blue black colour and the starch in the paper would be broken down further more into simpler sugars.
