Answer:

Case I

Genotypic Ratio – RR: Rr = 2: 2 = 1: 1

Phenotypic Ratio – All the offspring are red in color as R is dominant over r

Case II

Genotypic Ratio – RR: Rr: rr = 1: 2: 1

Phenotypic Ratio – All RR and Rr are red in color while rr is of different color, thus the phenotypic ratio is Red offspring : White offspring = 3:1

Case III

Genotypic Ratio – All offspring’s are of genotpe rr

Phenotypic Ratio – All offsprings are of white color

Explanation:

Case I – Homozygous red bull (RR) and a heterozygous red cow (Rr)

(R ) is dominant over ( r )

The punnet square for the cross between the Homozygous red bull (RR) and heterozygous red cow (Rr) is as follows -

R R

R RR RR

r Rr Rr

Genotypic Ratio – RR: Rr = 2: 2 = 1: 1

Phenotypic Ratio – All the offspring are red in color as R is dominant over r

Case II - heterozygous red bull (Rr) and a heterozygous red cow (Rr)

The punnet square for the cross between the heterozygous red bull (Rr) and a heterozygous red cow (Rr) is as follows -

R r

R RR Rr

r Rr rr

Genotypic Ratio – RR: Rr: rr = 1: 2: 1

Phenotypic Ratio – All RR and Rr are red in color while rr is of different color, thus the phenotypic ratio is Red offspring : White offspring = 3:1

Case III - homozygous white bull (rr) and a homozygous white cow (rr)

The punnet square for the cross between the homozygous white bull (rr) and a homozygous white cow (rr) is as follows -

r r

r rr rr

Genotypic Ratio – All offspring’s are of genotpe rr

Phenotypic Ratio – All offsprings are of white color

Answer:

Explanation:

Genotype 1:

2/4 is RR so RR is 50%

2/4 is Rr so Rr is 50%

Phenotype:

Not enough info for that

Genotype 2:

1/4 is RR so RR is 25%

2/4 is Rr so Rr is 50%

1/4 is rr so rr is 25%

Phenotype:

Genotype 3:

4/4 is rr so rr is 100%

Phenotype:

A 45-year-old woman named Christine is measured as having the following skinfold thicknesses on the right side of her body: Tric

TEA [102]

Answer:

The skinfold method, the measurement of subcutaneous fat folds, is the most widely adopted field method for the assessment of body fat, especially in children.

It is based on the principle that fat is of a known density and by “summing” measurements of subcutaneous fat thickness across the body, total and regional fat can be estimated.

Skinfold thickness measurements are typically used to rank individuals in terms of relative total “fatness”, or to assess subcutaneous fat at various regions of the body.

Population specific equations are used to derive estimates of percent body fat.

In infancy, it might be the sole tool available for assessing body composition longitudinally as other methods may not be feasible, or may only be suitable for use at body sizes e.g. PEA POD, can only measure infants up to 10kg.

The grades of a science test are normally distributed. Thanh finds that his grade on the test has a z-score of –2.5. Which of th

Tom [10]

The right answer is Thanh's grade is 2.5 standard deviations below the mean of the test grades.

The z scores are standard deviations. If, for example, a tool returns a z score of +2.5, it means that the result is a standard deviation of 2.5.

Very high or very low (negative) z scores associated with very low p values are at the ends of the normal distribution.

Write down three problems caused by expansion or contraction.how are these problems overcome?

masya89 [10]

Answer:

The problems that can be caused by Expansion or Contraction a;long with the solutions are:

Explanation:

The railway tracks made of steel expand during the summer and contract during the winter. This can cause them to become curved during the summer thereby causing rail derailment.In order to prevent this, an air gap is kept in between the railway lines so that they get the space to expand without getting curved.
The electric wires linking the telegraph posts are made up of metals and so they expand in the summer and contract in the winter, which can cause them to tear. This is why the wires are loosely fixed so that they can expand and sag in the summer and contract and tighten in the winter.
Bridges are constructed with joints where some space is maintained to allow the easy expansion and contraction in summer and winter respectively.

Using the concept of osmosis, explain why water is sprayed over produce in a grocery store. how might this change the appearance

S_A_V [24]

<span>Because of osmosis, water sprayed on vegetables will cross the cell wall, enter the plant cells, and plump them up. This makes vegetables look fresh and crisp instead of wilted and sad.</span>
