Genetics & Heredity

1. How do the Punnett squares for a monohybrid cross and a dihybrid cross differ?


2. What are the genotypes of gametes of an AaBb self-pollination?


3. Mendel carried out a dihybrid cross to examine the inheritance of the characteristics for seed color and seed shape. The dominant allele for yellow seed color is Y, and the recessive allele for green color is y. The dominant allele for round seeds is R, and the recessive allele for a wrinkled shape is r. The two plants that were crossed were F1 dihybrids RrYy. Identify the ratios of traits that Mendel observed in the F2 generation. Create a Punnett square to help you answer the question.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:Biologists use a diagram called a Punnett square, to help predict the probable inheritance of alleles in different crosses.

There are four possible combinations of gametes for the AaBb parent. Half of the gametes get a dominant A and a dominant B allele; the other half of the gametes get a recessive a and a recessive b allele. Both parents produce 25% each of AB, Ab, aB, and ab.

The last one I can't answer sorry.

hope this is good.

whats is the cell cycle and why is it so important to to our health? no links

Answers

The cell cycle is the replication of reproduction of cells, whether in eukaryotes or prokaryotes. It is important to organisms in many different ways, but overall it allows them to survive. For prokaryotes, the cell cycle, called binary fission, allows for them to live on by dividing into two new daughter cells. ( I hope this helped if you are doing this on computer you can copy & paste it. )
Are you talking about cell division and mitosis and that kind of stuff? If so , first is interphase which is growth and development second is prophase where you can see the chromosomes and spindle fibers everywhere, third is metaphase where the chromosomes line up and the spindle fibers are attached to the chromosomes, fourth is anaphase where the chromatid pairs separate, and last is telophase where the cell begins to form a new nucleus and split and goes back to interphase and the cycle continues. If this stopped then you would die. I hope this helped

In a particular breed of rabbits, fur color is gray or white. If a rabbit with gray fur and a rabbit with white fur reproduce and the offspring all have gray fur, what can you infer about the gene for fur color?

Answers

Answer:

D

Explanation:

The gene for dominant fur is dominant over white fur. The relationship between two genetic variants is referred to as dominant. Each gene has two alleles that an individual inherits from each parent.

What is dominant gene?

One allele of a gene, known as the dominant gene, will be expressed if the alleles are different. The impact of the other allele, known as the recessive one, is concealed.

Dominant describes the relationship between two genetic variants. If one is in charge, the other must be subordinate. Then it is referred to as recessive.

A dominant gene, or dominant form of a gene, is a specific variant of a gene that expresses itself more powerfully on its own than any other version of the gene that the individual is carrying—in this example, the recessive—for a variety of reasons.

Therefore, The gene for dominant fur is dominant over white fur. The relationship between two genetic variants is referred to as dominant. Each gene has two alleles that an individual inherits from each parent.
