Which of the following statements best supports Mendel's Law of Segregation?Mendel law of segregation

Answers

Answer 1
Answer:

During gameteformation, the individual alleles that comprise a gene must separate. The correct option is C.

What is law of segregation?

As per Mendel's law of segregation, "during gameteformation, every gene segregates from each other so that each gameteconveys only one allele for each gene." The secondlaw of inheritance is the law of segregation.

During gameteformation, the individual alleles that comprise a gene must separate from each other in a particular way.

Thus, the correct option is C.

The missing options of the question are:

  • A-individual traits are inherited independently of one another.
  • B-dominant traits are always separated from recessive traits during reproduction.
  • C-the individual alleles that make up a gene must separate during gamete formation.
  • D-breeding two true individuals together always produces offspring‘s with the recessive phenotype

Answer 2
Answer:

Answer: The answer is C, the individual alleles that make up the gene must SEGREGATE (which means separate) during gamete formation, hence the name “law of segregation”

Explanation: Hope this helps

5. Which of the following accurately reflects the beliefs on Earth's early history? A. Scientists believe the early atmosphere lacked the oxygen necessary to support modern human life. B. Scientists believe that DNA may have existed before RNA. C. Scientists believe that microspheres nearly prevented the development of early life.

Answers

The answer is (a.) Scientists believe the early atmosphere lacked the oxygen necessary to support modern human life.

The Theory of Spontaneous formation of organic molecules suggested that there are less oxygen to support the modern human life. In this theory, it is suggested that the abundant gases found in the atmosphere are CO2 and N2.

Suppose that a dominant allele (P) codes for a polka-dot tail and a recessive allele (p) codes for a solid colored tail. If two heterozygous individuals with polka-dot tails mate, what's the probability of the phenotype and genotype combinations of the offspring?A. 25 percent chance of a polka-dot tail and 75 percent chance of a solid colored tail (25 percent PP; 50 percent Pp; 25 percent pp)
B. 75 percent chance of a polka-dot tail and 25 percent chance of a solid colored tail (25 percent PP; 50 percent Pp; 25 percent pp)
C. 75 percent chance of a polka-dot tail and 25 percent chance of a solid colored tail (75 percent Pp; 25 percent pp)
D. 50 percent chance of a polka-dot tail and 50 percent chance of a solid colored tail (50 percent PP; 50 percent pp)

Answers

The answer is B. 75 percent chance of a polka-dot tail and 25 percent chance of a solid colored tail (25 percent PP; 50 percent Pp; 25 percent pp) 

If P represents dominant allele (a polka-dot tail), p represents recessive allele (a solid colored tail), then heterozygous individuals have Pp genotype. All alleles will combine each other:

Parental generation:      Pp     x     Pp
Offspring:                  PP    Pp    Pp    pp

Thus, the probability of PP genotype is 1/4 (there is only 1 of total 4 possible genotypes), which is 25%. The probability of Pp genotype is 1/2 or 50%, and 
the probability of pp genotype is 1/2 or 25%.

Talking of phenotypes, the P allele is dominant and each genotype containing P allele will have the polka-dot phenotype. In this case, there are 3 out of 4 genotypes containing P allele - 1 PP and 2 Pp. So, the probability of the polka-dot tail is 3/4 or 75%, leaving the 
probability of the solid color tail 1/4 or 25%.
