Answer:
- Parental cross = Cch x chch
- F1 = 1/2 Cch (agouti coat); 1/2 chch (albino coat) >> 1:1 phenotypic ratio
Punnett square:
ch ch
C Cch Cch
ch chch chch
Explanation:
A heterozygous individual is an individual who has two different gene variants (i.e., alleles) at a particular locus. In this case, individuals having the "agouti coat" trait are heterozygous carrying both 'C' and 'ch' alleles. On the other hand, a homo-zygous individual has the same allele at a given locus (here, the 'chch' genotype associated with the albino phenotype). Therefore, as observed in the Punnett Square above, when a heterozygous parent is crossed with a homo-zygous recessive parent for a single gene, alleles segregate in the gametes of both parents so an expected 1:1 phenotypic ratio will be observed.
Post Lab Report Part II 6. The probability that the two offspring you produced share every genotype in common is extremely low. Explain why they are likely to be different. 7. How would genetic variability be affected if more chromosome pairs were added? What about if another partner was added?
Answer:
Explanation:
Answer to 6:
The probability of two offspring with the same genotype is very low because due to recombination between the chromosomes of the father and mother each gamete has a different composition of genetic material. The only chance that they share the genotype is if they were zygotical twins.
Answer to question 7:
When you increase the number of chromosomes the variability will increase too.

In mice, apricot eyes is recessive to black eyes. Tail length is governed by another gene, linked to the eye color gene. Long tails is dominant to short tails. To determine the distance between the two genes, a double heterozygote is mated in a testcross and the classes of progeny produced were as follows:
Apricot eyes, Long tails 33
Apricot eyes, Short tails 20
Black eyes, Long tails 17
Black eyes, Short tails 30
Determine whether the heterozygous parent is in the cis or trans arrangement.
a. Cis
b. Trans
Answer:
trans
Explanation:
From the given information:
The study observes the genes present in mice for eye color and tail length. Since both genes are linked, it implies that they exist in the same chromosomes.
Black eyes is dominant over apricot eyes
Let Black eye be B and apricot eyes be b
Long tail is dominant over short tail
Let long tail be L and short tail be l
If double heterozygote(homoozygous-recessive) engage in the testcross
Then:
From the result given:
The parental combinations are:
Apricot eyes, Longtail (bL / bl) = 33
Black eyes, Short tails (Bl / bl) = 30
The recombinant genes are:
Black eyes, Long tails (BL / bl) = 17
Apricot eyes, Short tails (bl / bl) = 20
The recombination frequency relates to the distance between the two genes which can be computed as:
= (20+17)/100
= 37%
Thus; the heterozygous parent is in trans arrangement.

3. A bacterial isolate from a urine specimen was grown in culture, Gram stained, and then tested for its ability to ferment sugars and hydrolyze various subtrates. What approach to bacterial identification is this an example of
Answer:
Phenotypic approach for bacterial identification
Explanation:
Bacterial identification can be done by conventional methods, which are based on phenotypical characteristics. These methods are much affordable and reasonable.
Phenotypical identification is based on bacteria´s observable characteristics, such as their morphology, development, and biochemical/metabolic properties.
It is important to consider that these methods do not provide absolute certainty. They can only indicate the genera or species to which the bacteria under study may belong.
Some primary evidence is usually used for fast bacteria identification:
Gram staining, morphology, growth at different media or different incubation atmospheres, glucose fermentation, spores production, motion, aerobiosis/anaerobiosis, among others.Knowing that the bacteria in the exposed example was isolated and grown in culture, then Gram-stained and tested for biochemical reaction, we can assume that the approach for its identification is phenotypic.
define cell and atom
Answer:
Cell: All living organisms are made up of cells, which are the basic building components. Cells also carry the body's genetic material and have the ability to replicate themselves. Cells are made up of several components, each of which serves a particular purpose. Organelles, for example, are specialized structures that perform specific activities within the cell.

imagine that you are conducting tests shortly after a nuclear accident.Using potted moss plants as you experimental organisms,design a experiment to test the hypothesis that the frequency of mutations decreases with the organisms distance from the source of radiation
Answer:
Take two potted plants and provide equal conditions to both.
Explanation:
Two potted plants i.e. one is placed near the nuclear accident site while on the other hand, the other is placed far away from the nuclear accident. Provide equal conditions to both plants so that we can find out the hypothesis that the frequency of mutations decreases with the organisms distance from the source of radiation. The result shows that the potted plant that is located near to the nuclear accident site having high frequency of mutation as compared to other plant due to the radiation present at that location.

All of the following factors contribute to the differences in complex trait risk predictions between different laboratories, EXCEPT ____________. differing methods of combining risk from multiple genetic variants selection of different genetic variants for risk determination different assessments of environmental factors genotyping of different variants
Answer:
different assessments of environmental factors
Explanation:
In humans, for predicting the future phenotype of any individual, the PSR is used.
A trait may be defined as the state of a character that is a distinct variation of the phenotypic characteristic of any organism.
The following factors contributes to the differences in the complex trait risk predictions in the different laboratories :
-- differing methods of the combining risk from the multiple genetic variants.
-- genotyping of the different variants.
-- selection of the different genetic variants for such risk determination.
Thus the factor which does not contribute is :
"different assessments of the environmental factors."

Lactase is an enzyme that is produced in the lining of the intestines. This enzyme helps the body speed up the
breakdown of carbohydrates that are found in dairy products, such as milk, yogurt, and cheese.
Which general function does lactase perform?
Answer:
Regulation of cell processes
Explanation:
Lactase is an enzyme that helps in the breaking down of disaccharide sugar, lactose, found in many foods. It does it by converting the lactose into its component reducing sugars - glucose and galactose. This enzyme is produced by some special cells lining the intestinal walls of humans and forms a kind of chemical barrier known as brush border where foods must pass through before being absorbed. By so doing, foods are screened for the presence of lactose and any lactose is broken down before the foods are given a pass.

Why do you think during the evolutionary process there was a correlation between brain size increasing while cecum size decreased in the omnivores?
How does insect respiration differ from that of vertebrate respiration? How do they manage to respire?
Answer:
Brain size increase due to find out improved quality diets whereas cecum size decrease due to reduction of its need.
Explanation:
Brain size increased due to the need to increase the mental capacity of an organism in order to explore the environment for the survival such as search for improved quality diet and the cecum size decreased because omnivorous diet improved due to the reduction of its need as a component of the digestive system. Insects have different respiration system as compared to vertebrates because vertebrates uses lungs for respiration whereas the insects uses tracheal tubes for the absorption of oxygen and removal of carbondioxide gas.

a. Growth hormone directly stimulates osteoblasts in the periosteum to promote appositional growth.
b. Growth hormone increases the rate of mitosis in the epiphyseal plate of growing bones.
c. Growth hormone promotes the closure of the epiphyseal plate.
d. Growth hormone increases the activity of osteogenic cells.
C. Growth hormone promotes the closure of the epiphyseal plate.
The closure of the epiphyseal plate is NOT an effect of growth hormone (option c).
The epiphyseal plate is a layer of hyaline cartilage between the epiphyses and metaphyses at the ends of long bones.
The epiphyseal plate is completely closed when bone growth is completed (around age 18 to 21 years).
Different hormones (i.e., testosterone and estrogen) released at puberty initiate the closure of epiphyseal plates.
In conclusion, the closure of the epiphyseal plate is NOT an effect of growth hormone (option c).

. Imagine the following scenario. A bacteriophage taken for the treatment of cholera infects a cholera-causing bacterium and temporarily enters the lysogenic stage. When the virus re-enters the lytic cycle, it includes some pieces of the bacterial DNA in its own genome. Specifcally, this DNA encodes information for making the cholera toxin. Imagine some of the possible consequences of this scenario. What will happen to the next bacteria that the virus infects
Answer:
The virus will transfer the DNA encoding cholera toxin to the next bacteria it infects, which will make that bacteria cholera-causing.
Explanation:
The process described in this question is a kind of gene transfer in bacteria called TRANSDUCTION. Transduction is the transfer of fragments of DNA from one bacterium to another via a virus called bacteriophage.
As stated in this question, the virus (bacteriophage) infects a cholera-causing bacterium. The bacteriophage moves from lysogenic cycle to lytic cycle and includes some pieces of the bacterial DNA, which encodes information for making the cholera toxin, in its own genome.
This means that the cholera-making toxin DNA is now a part of the virus's genome and hence, will transfer it to the next bacteria it infects in a process called TRANSDUCTION. This will make that bacteria a cholera causing bacteria.

Answer:
14. (a) Pb
15. (d) Al
16. (A) increases
Explanation:
14.
In the reactivity series of metals an element can displace another element from a compound if and only if it is not placed below that metal, as the reactivity of metals decreases when moving from top to bottom- if a metal is placed below Hydrogen it means that it is less reactive than Hydrogen and hence cannot displace Hydrogen from its compound.
All options except A are placed below Hydrogen in the reactivity series, so they wont displace Hydrogen from its compound, but option (a) that is Pb can do so as it is above Hydrogen in the reactivity series.
15.
Al is placed below Mg in the reactivity series and hence cannot displace Mg from its compound.
16.
The reactivity of metals increases down the GROUP.
[CAUTION :- We were talking 'bout REACTIVITY SERIES in the top 2 questions where reactivity decreases down the group, but we're talkin' 'bout GROUPS of the periodic table here, where reactivity increases down the group.]
The size of metals increases down the group causing their valence electrons to drift far from the nucleus so that they can be lost easily. The metals have a property of losing electrons so the more electrons it can lose more will be its reactivity.
Hence, reactivity increases down the group.
If 622 water molecules were removed during the synthesis of a specific polysaccharide, how many monomers were joined together to make this molecule? need help please and thank you
Answer:
623 monomers
Explanation:
In a dehydration synthesis reaction, one water molecule is removed for every bond that is created between 2 monomers.
Linking 3 monomers together would remove 2 water molecules.
Following this pattern, the number of water molecules removed will always be one less than the number of monomers that were joined together.
So, if 622 water molecules were removed, then 623 monomers were joined together.
The answer is 623 monomers.
