4. You decide to experiment with your gardening this year. You cross one of your red tulips withanother one of your red tulips. The result is 25 red tulips and 8 white tulips. Based on this
information, what are the genotypes of the red parent tulips?

Answers

Answer 1
Answer:

Answer:

According to the information, the parent red tulip plants have a heterozygous genotype for red colour. The allele for red colour is dominant whereas the allele for white colour is recessive. Hence, the recessive allele will be masked by the dominant allele and the parent plants will have red tulips.

When heterozygous red tulip plants will be crossed, then 25% red homozygous plants will be made, 50 % would be red heterozygous plants whereas 25% would be white homozygous.

What is the difference between a reptile and amphibian , thanks

Answers

A reptile is a mammal that lives on land with scales whereas an amphibian is a creature that lives in both land and water so has gills but grows lungs as it ages
A reptile is an animal who lives on land and lays eggs. They almost all have scales (if not all). Amphibians are animals who mostly of the time are animals born in the water and grow up to live on land and water. Gills get replaced with lungs, but there are some exceptions.

a red-flowered plant was crossed with a white-flowered variation of the plant. all of the flowers on the next generation of plants were red. decide which flower color is recessive for this plant and which is dominant

Answers

Answer: Dominant: red, recessive: white.

Explanation:

Alleles are different forms or versions of a gene, and they can be described as either dominant or recessive.

Dominant traits are those that are seen in a heterozygous genotype. It means the organisms has two different alleles for a gene, one is dominant while the other one is recessive. A dominant allle dominates over the recessive alleles and it masks the effects of this recessive allele. This means, the offspring only needs to inherit one dominant allele to have a dominant trait.

In the example, a red-flowered plant is crossed with a white-flowered plant. And all plants on the next generation are red. If each plant from this offspring inherites one allele of each parent, they have one red allele and one white allele. Since they are all red, we can say red color is dominant and white color is recessive. Because red allele has a dominant phenotype.

In this situation, red flower color wold be dominant over white flower color, since, although all the flowers had both a red-flowered and white-flowered parent, only the red showed.
