Chapter 18.6, Problem 3EQ
Summary Introduction
To determine: The discrepancy between the expected results and the observed results.
Introduction: Bateson and Punnett in the year 1911 conducted an experiment on sweet peas. They made a cross of sweet peas showing linkage between two different genes. In their study they took into consideration two traits- the color and shape.

What is lignin and its role in plants?
Why can reducing the amount of lignin in trees enhance the
efficiency of cellulostic-ethanol production?
Why can't trees be genetically engineered without any
lignin at all?
5Gº
Why are transgenic approaches rather than traditional
breeding being used to create trees with altered levels of
lignin?
Where can you find the only company in the USA that
makes transgenic trees that are found in forests?
Go to this company's website. What type of endangered
tree are they trying to survive?

SCAN
Expressed using apples, DNA replication looks like this.
Go look at the model of DNA on the demonstration table.
We have been presenting DNA as a straight ladder, but actually it is
twisted on itself like a spiral staircase. This shape is called a heliz.
Observe
The Chromosome
Normally DNA exists as loose strands (chromatin) in the nucleus of
a cell. This nuclear DNA sends a message (RNA) to the ribosomes where
protein and enzymes are synthesized.
When stretched out, the length of one DNA molecule in a human cell
is almost 4 cm. However, the cell itself is but a tiny fraction of that size.
During cell reproduction the DNA must be able to move around. So it
shortens its length by tightly coiling up. In doing so, the DNA strands
become wider and are visible under a microscope.…
