Captain Fallowell was an astronaut who had been aboard at the international space station from last 8 months. He left in the middle of his speech and complained that he had increased heart rate and abnormal BP (blood pressure) while standing. Characters in the case: Captain Fallowell Adequate information: Sometimes he also faces blackouts and dizziness while standing, although his reflexes were normal with no any sign or symptom of head trauma. To determine: The MAP (Main arterial pressure) and pulse pressure of Captain Fallowell while standing and lying down. Given information: Captain Fallowell’s heart rate was high, that is, 112 beats per minute during standing and 85 beats per minute while he was lying. HisBP was 94/52 mm Hg (millimeter of mercury) when he was standing and while lying, it was 116/66 mm Hg.

The shape of radishes may be long (SL/SL), oval (SL/SS), or round (SS/SS), and the color of radishes may be red (CR/CR), purple (CR/CW) or white (CW/CW). If a long, red radish plant is crossed with a round, white plant, what will be the appearance of the F1 and F2 generations?

None

Question #3: In the KeyGene paper, the authors state that it would be useful if pollen from an apomict would transmit apomixis-inducing genes to the female in the cross (assuming the pollen is viable). Assuming there was just one gene conferring gametophytic obligate apomixis, and that the two parents are inbreds, what would be the consequences of such a cross if: a) The apomixis was a dominant trait? Indicate the genotypes and phenotypes (apomict or non- apomict) of the parents, F1 and F2 generations. Remember to include the expected genotypic and phenotypic ratios (or percentages) in the F1 and F2 generations, and to position the female first (left side) in the parental cross. b) The apomixis was a recessive trait? Indicate the genotypes and phenotypes (apomict or non- apomict) of the parents, F1 and F2 generations. Remember to include the expected genotypic and phenotypic ratios (or percentages) in the F1 and F2 generations, and to position the female first (left side) in the…
