Chapter 14, Problem 1TY
Summary Introduction

Introduction:

 

The cell cycle is the complete cycle of the cells starting from the formation of the cells by mitosis and ends with the next mitosis. The cycle is divided into G1 phase, S phase, G2 phase and mitotic phase.

Answer to Problem 1TY

Option (b).

Explanation of Solution

Explanation for the correct answer:

Option (b) S phase. The S phase is the synthetic phase of the cell cycle. In this phase of the cell cycle, the amount of DNA and chromosomes are doubled by the process of DNA replication. Hence, it is the correct answer.

Explanation for the incorrect answer:

Option (a) G1 phase. The G1 phase of the cell cycle is responsible for the growth and promotion of the cell size. Hence, it is an incorrect answer.

Option (c) M phase. Mitosis is the process of the celldivision, which occurs in all the somatic cells present in the body of the multicellular organism. IN this stage, the replication does not take place. Hence, it is an incorrect answer.

Option (d) G2 phase. The G2 phase occurs after S phase, so, there is no need of DNA replication. Hence, it is an incorrect answer.

Option (e) none of the above. The replication of the DNA segment or the chromosomes occur in S phase. Hence, it is an incorrect answer.

Your goal is to produce black seeds resistant to mold. So you make the same cross again (between a homozygous black seeded, mold susceptible parent and a homozygous white seeded and mold resistant parent), and, again, advance progeny by SSD to create 100 F10 generation plants.   Based on the information you obtained from your first crossing experiment (Question #4), how many F10 plants would you expect to have black seeds and be resistant to mold? Assume that a toxin produced by the mold fungus has been isolated. Only mold resistant seeds will germinate in the presence of the toxin. Could you use this toxin screening procedure to have segregation distortion work in your favor in the F2 generation? Explain your answer. Info from Question 4 a. P Locus (Seed Color): Hypothesis: The null hypothesis (H₀) is that seed color is controlled by alleles at a single locus. Observed Data: Total white seeds: 45 (resistant plants) + 6 (susceptible plants) = 51 Total black seeds: 7 (resistant…

Using Punnett Squares Punnett squares are one good way to predict the outcome of genetic crosses. Punnett squares use mathematical probability to help predict the genotype and phenotype combinations in genetic crosses. The number of possible alleles from each parent determines the number of rows and columns in the Punnett square. Independent Assortment KEY QUESTION How do alleles segregate when more than one gene is involved? Mendel wondered if the segregation of one pair of alleles affects another pair. For example, does the gene that determines the shape of a seed affect the gene for seed color? This type of experiment is known as a two-factor, or dihybrid, cross because it involves two different genes. Single-gene crosses are monohybrid crosses. Visual Reading Tool: Two-Factor Cross: F₂ The Punnett square shows the results of self-crossing the F, generation of a cross between round yellow peas and wrinkled green peas. 1. List the different genotypes in the F, generation. What is the…
