On the planet Kermit, in the Muppet population, there are two autosomal loci of interest. The first locus has alleles A and a, and the second locus has alleles B and b. A and B are the dominant alleles at the respective loci. The loci act in an epistatic manner, identical to the way two genes interact to produce coat color in labradors. The phenotype here is muppet hair color. We have the following results:

Muppet hair color as a function of two-locus genotypes

Two-locus genotype Muppet hair color
A_B_ Cookie monster blue
aaB_ Elmo red
__bb Janice blonde

If two doubly-heterozygous Cookie-monster blue-haired muppets mate, and produce 1000 children, which of the follow values most closely represents the expected number of Janice blonde-haired offspring?

a. 12.
b. 260.
c. 252.
d. 512.
e. 240.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The values that most closely represent the expected number of Janice blonde-haired offspring is 252 individuals, option C.

Explanation:

Available data:

Two diallelic genes acting in a recessive epistatic manner to express hair colorAllele A is dominant over the allele aAllele B is dominant over the allele bA_B_ Cookie monster blue aaB_ Elmo red __bb Janice blonde

When talking about epistasis, we are referring to an interruption. These are interactions between genes located in different loci in the same chromosome. An epistatic gene can alter, influence, or suppress the expression of a hypostatic gene. When the epistatic gene is recessive, the interaction is known as recessive epistasis.  

Observing the altered phenotype proportions of the offspring can reveal which interaction is operating in the trait determination.  

In recessive epistasis, the proportion is 9:3:4.

4 Janice blond individuals ---------- X = 250 individuals

So, 250 individuals are expected to be Janice blonde. The observed number might vary a little bit from this value.  The values that most closely represent the expected number of Janice blonde-haired offspring is c = 252 individuals

The equation for finding width: 36 ÷ 3

And the answer will be 12, so yeah(I tried it with 2 because it was 2 prism long, but it turned out to be a number not on the list [3888])

The equation for finding height: 24 ÷ 2

And the answer will be 12!

Is it possible for you to find out whether a plant has taproot or fibrous roots by looking at

Answers

Answer:

No, it is not possible to determine whether a plant has taproot or fibrous roots by looking at the impression of its leaf on a sheet of paper. This is because the root system of a plant is hidden underground and cannot be seen from the surface. The shape and size of a leaf can provide clues about the type of root system a plant has, but the impression of a leaf on a sheet of paper does not provide enough information to definitively identify the type of root system.

This is referred to the are very long-period waves that move through the ocean in response to the forces exerted by the moon and sun an there are two types which are high and low tide.

The position of coastal ares during high tide is that it is perpendicular to the moon which is why the side of the Earth closest to the Moon experiences the Moon's pull the strongest, and this causes the seas to rise, creating high tides.

A. osmosis
B. active transport
C. diffusion
D. facilitated diffusion
E. both diffusion and osmosis​

Answers

As oxygen-rich (and carbon dioxide-poor) blood travels by a cell the oxygen diffuses through the cell membrane to the area of lower concentration inside the cell. It can do this easily because the oxygen molecule (O2) is very small and has no charge or polarity. The oxygen is used up rapidly by mitochondria. This rapid consumption causes oxygen to constantly move into the cell from the blood. Therefore the answer is C

Is there an impact on the environment if blue whales went extinct?

Answers

Answer:

Yes.

Explanation:

Blue whales are the largest animals in the world, and they are the apex predator in the ocean, meaning they help to regulate the population of other species in the ecosystem. As with any species, the loss of blue whales would cause imbalances in the food chain, which would have far-reaching effects throughout the ocean and its inhabitants. In addition, blue whales help maintain the balance of carbon dioxide in the ocean which could be lost if the species were to go extinct.

What is a homozygous dominant plant?

When an organism possesses two copies of the same dominant allele, it is said to be homozygous dominant, and when it possesses two copies of the same recessive gene, it is said to be homozygous recessive.

When an organism is homozygous, it contains two copies of the same allele for a gene. When two copies of the same dominant allele or two copies of the same recessive allele are present in an organism, it is said to be homozygous dominant or homozygous recessive.

When an organism is heterozygous, it has two distinct alleles of the same gene. For instance, pea plants can have either homozygous dominant (red-red) or heterozygous red blooms (red-white). They are homozygous recessive if they have white blooms (white-white). Heterozygous carriers are always present.

what is a non example of crystallization​

Answers

Answer:

Microscopically, a single crystal has atoms in a near-perfect periodic arrangement; a polycrystal is composed of many microscopic crystals (called "crystallites" or "grains"), and an amorphous solid (such as glass) has no periodic arrangement even microscopically.

Most inorganic solids are not crystals but polycrystals, i.e. many microscopic crystals fused together into a single solid. ... The third category of solids is amorphous solids, where the atoms have no periodic structure whatsoever. Examples of amorphous solids include glass, wax, and many plastics.

In condensed matter physics and materials science, an amorphous (from the Greek a, without, morphé, shape, form) or non-crystalline solid is a solid that lacks the long-range order that is characteristic of a crystal. In some older books, the term has been used synonymously with glass.

Explanation:

This chapter highlights mesocrystals as an interesting example of particle‐mediated, non‐classical crystallization processes. Mesocrystals — the shortened name for mesoscopically structured crystals — are superstructures composed of nanoparticles, being arranged three‐dimensionally in crystallographic register. Mesocrystals are often only intermediate structures in a non‐classical crystallization pathway leading to a final single crystal by nanoparticle fusion. Therefore, they are difficult to detect. Although mesocrystals were initially described for synthetic systems, recent investigations have revealed an increasing number of bio‐mineral systems which appear to be mesocrystals, but which so far have been considered to be single crystalline, including nacre and sea urchin spines. This chapter briefly defines non‐classical crystallization processes, provides some examples of synthetic mesocrystals and mesocrystals in biomineralization, and attempts to provide some insight into their formation mechanisms, despite their being as yet largely unexplored.
