Figure 8.9 In pea plants, round peas (R) are dominant to wrinkled peas (r). You do a test cross between a pea plant with wrinkled peas (genotype rr) and a plant of unknown genotype that has round peas. You end up with three plants, all which have round peas. From this data, can you tell if the parent plant is homozygous dominant or heterozygous?
To avoid self-fertilization in his pea plants, Mendel had toa. spray the plants with a chemical that damaged thepollen.b. remove the anthers from immature flowers.c. grow the plants in a greenhouse that did not containpollinators (e.g., bees).d. do all of the above.
The slipper orchid is a highly prized flower that undergoes self-fertilization. You own a slipper orchid that has the genotype Aabb. What will be the genotype of the plant’s offspring? a)All offspring will also be Aabb b)¼ AAbb, ½ Aabb, ¼ aabb c)½ Aa, ½ bb
Independent assortment means thata. two genes tend to be inherited together.b. which allele of a gene is included in a gamete has noeffect on which allele of a second gene is included in thesame gamete.c. which allele of a gene is included in a gametedetermines which allele of a second gene is included inthe same gamete.d. homologous chromosomes do not separate during meiosis.
In maize ,a dominant allele A is necessary for seed color as apposed to colorless a.another Gene have recessive Allele of wx That result in waxy starch.as opposed to normal starch Wx.an AaWxWx plant is test crossed.what are the phenotype and relative frequencies of offsprings?u
In rice, male sterility is controlled by maternal cytoplasmic elements. This phenotype renders the male part of rice plants (i.e. the stamen) unable to produce fertile pollen; the female parts, however, remain receptive to pollination by pollen from male fertile rice plants. However, the presence of a nuclear fertility restorer gene F restores fertility to male-sterile lines. Give the result(s) of the cross and explain the phenotype of the offspring.
A student observes corn to analyze the outcome of two genes-- The Red gene (R or r) where purple (R) is dominant to yellow (r) and the Sugar gene (S or s) where smooth (S) is dominant to wrinkled (s). The student predicts the parent’s genotypes are RrSs and rrss. How many possible gametes would be formed by each parent? Parent 1 would have 2 gamete combinations and Parent 2 would have 2 gamete combinations Parent 1 would have 4 gamete combinations and Parent 2 would have 2 gamete combination Parent 1 would have 4 gamete combinations and Parent 2 would have 1 gamete combination Parent 1 would have 4 gamete combinations and Parent 2 would have 4 gamete combination
which characteristic of pea plants was NOT important in their selection as Mendel's research organism? A)pea plants have a short generation timeB) peas are easy to cultivateC) many true breeding varieties were available.D)pea plants are self-pollinating but can be cross-fertilized easilyE)Most other scientists of the time were also using peas, so a lot was known about them.
Mendel's pea plants were a good choice for studying heredity, because: a) They have lots of easily observable traits that vary in an either-or manner. b) Their mating is uncontrollable. c) There are separate male and female plants. d) The plants are incapable of cross-pollination.
Hello! Can you please help me answer this question "What are the genotypes of the pea plants that would have to be bred to yield one plant with restricted pods for every three plants with inflated pods? Note: Inflated is dominant while restricted is recessive."
In maize, a dominant allele A is necessary for seed color, as opposed to colorless (a).Another gene has a recessive allele wx that results in waxy starch, as opposed to normal starch(Wx). The two genes segregate independently. An Aa WxWx plant is testcross. What are thephenotypes and relative frequencies of offspring?
Two pea plants that are true-breeding for recessive white flowers are mated and their offspring analyzed. Which of the following statements about this situation is true? Group of answer choices A)The offspring represent the P generation. B)The gametes produced by the offspring will carry only one allele for this gene. C)Both parents are referred to as heterozygotes. D)Half of the offspring will be true-breeding for white flowers.
