In a certain species of plant, the allele to produce green melons (G) is dominant over the allele to produce yellow melons (g). A student performed a cross between a plant that produced green melons and a plant that produced yellow melons. When the student observed the next generation, the 94 seeds that were produced from the cross matured into 53 plants with green melons and 41 plants with yellow melons. Calculate the chi-squared value for the null hypothesis that the green-melon parent was heterozygous for the melon-color gene.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

4.26

Explanation:

Let the green-melon parents be Gg, then we expect the cross with the yellow-melon plant gg so as to produce 50% Gg and other 50% of gg offspring. What we observed was that 53 green and a 41 yellow. Based on the total number of 94 offspring , we expected half and a half ratios to be 47 of each color.

                                Observed(o)   Expected(e)   (o-e)    [tex]$(o-e)^2$[/tex]      [tex]$(o-e)^2/e$[/tex]

Green-melon plant        53                    47               6          36             0.766

Yellow-melon plant        41                    47              -6          36             0.766

Therefore the chi-square value is 1.53 which is less than the critical value of 3.84. Therefore, the null hypothesis is accepted.

Q29. How has the Sun caused changes in global and hemispheric temperatures over
the past thousand years?

Answers

Answer:

the global average surface temperature has increased over the 20th century by about 0.6 degrees C

In the last thousand years, solar activities have caused a decrease in temperature in the northern hemisphere.

We can arrive at this answer because:

The changes in the sun were very important for the rise in temperatures during the 1000's to the 1100's.However, over the years this activity and changes in solar production caused this temperature to drop, especially in the northern hemisphere.Even though this decrease in temperature was something small and subtle, in the last thousand years it has been established in the region above the equator.

This process explains how global warming was not the result of changes in solar production, as this change caused a cooling. In this case, this confirms that global warming was caused by the accumulation of greenhouse gases caused by human actions.

The light-independent reactions of photosynthesis, also known as the Calvin cycle, must repeat three times in order for a cell to have enough material to construct half a glucose molecule. A variety of molecules are used and produced during this process. Identify the molecules into three categories: molecules brought in and used in three turns of the Calvin cycle, molecules produced during three turns of the Calvin cycle that leave the cycle, and molecules used and regenerated within the Calvin cycle during three turns.

Answers

Answer:

- molecules brought in and used in three turns of the Calvin cycle = carbon dioxide (CO2)

- molecules produced during three turns of the Calvin cycle that leave the cycle = Glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate (G3P)

- molecules used and regenerated within the Calvin cycle during three turns = Ribulose bi phosphate (RUBP)

Explanation:

The second stage of photosynthesis, called CALVIN CYCLE, occurs in the stroma of the chloroplast. The processes that occur in this stage can be divided into three stages namely: carbon fixation, reduction and regeneration.

As rightly stated in this question, the calvin cycle must repeat three times in order for a cell to have enough material to construct half a glucose molecule. Hence;

- In carbon fixation, molecules of carbon dioxide (CO2) are brought in and used in three turns of the Calvin cycle. The CO2 combines with a CO2 acceptor called RUBP (ribulosebiphosphate) to produce PGA (3-phosphoglycerate).

- In the reduction stage, PGA is reduced to Glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate (G3P). This G3P molecule is produced during three turns of the Calvin cycle and leaves the cycle to be used to form glucose.

- In the regeneration stage, remaining molecules of G3P are used to regenerate RUBP in order for the cycle to continue. Hence, RUBP molecules are used and regenerated within the Calvin cycle during three turns.

the molecular basis of human disease? 2 pts

cell. For example, it can cause the protein to mislocalize; the protein is now recruited to a specific site in the cell, like the
nucleus, where it can cause cellular dysfunction.
B/ If the protein is an enzyme, the 3-dimensional shape of the active site can be altered and decrease the rate of a reaction that
is catalyzed by that enzyme.
C/ If the protein is an enzyme, the 3-dimensional shape of the active site can be altered and increase the rate of a reaction that
is catalyzed by that enzyme.
D/ Only options A and B may be true.
F/Antions A, B and C may be true.

Answers

Answer:

A, B and C may be true

Explanation:

The three-dimensional structure (3D) of a protein, also known as tertiary structure, is critical to its function. In general, the 3D protein structure consists of alpha-helix and beta-sheets (secondary structures) associated through disordered coiled-coil regions. Genetic mutations may cause modifications in the 3D protein structure by modifying amino acids that are added to the growing polypeptide chain during the process of translation. In consequence, the relationships among amino acids (i.e., the intermolecular attractive forces that hold them together) may also be altered by these mutations. In general, mutations that generate amino acid changes at the active site of the enzyme will have a deleterious effect, thereby decreasing or inactivating protein function. However, there are situations where a mutation may be beneficial and can eventually increase the rate of reaction of a protein.

In snarlymonsters, the number of teeth is polygenic. The recessive condition (aabbcc) results in a toothless snarlymonster, and the dominant condition (AABBCC) results in a snarlymonster with 6 teeth. There are 5 other possible variations. How many teeth would a AaBbCc snarlymonster have

Answers

Answer:

The correct answer is - 3 teeth.

Explanation:

It is given that in Snarlymonsters the number of teeth is a polygenic trait and recessive conditions do not form the teeth in the Snarlymonsters which means only dominant alleles are responsible for the teeth.

So, aabbcc = no teeth

AABBCC  = 6 teeth

so the number of teeth is the number of dominant alleles present in the SNarlymonster like A, B, C present in offspring.

In the case of the AaBbCc genotype, there are 3 dominant genes A, B, and C, so 3 teeth are present in snarly monsters.

Answers

Answer:

We know that the color of jellyfish is controlled by codominance inheritance pattern and yellow Y and blue B are two alleles and in case of heterozygous the goober or green color occurs then,

If Yellow jellyfish is crossed with goober, that is, YY X YB.

 the punnett square will be -

   Y      Y

Y   YY    YY

B  YB     YB

The possible genotype of offspring will be YY, and YB and therefore, the possible phenotype of offspring will be Yellow, and Green. The Percentage of yellow offspring will be 50% as two out of four are dominant for Y allele and two heterozygous conditions that is 50 % and as there are two copies B alleles are not present so zero percent of blue color.
