(a)
To determine:
Expected weights in the F1 progeny if genotype AABB is crossed with aabb.
Introduction:
In the given scenario, it is supposed that plant weight is determined by a pair of alleles at each of two independently assorting loci (A and a, B and b) that are additive in their effects. The alleles represented by uppercase letters contribute 4 grams to plant weight, while the alleles represented by lowercase letters contribute 1 gram to plant weight.
(a)
Explanation of Solution
The cross between AABB and aabb is as follows:
F1 (filial 1) generation is AaBb. Its weight can be determined as weight contributed by A + weight contributed by a + weight contributed by B + weight contributed by b (4 + 1 + 4 + 1). So, the plant weight in F1 generation would be 10 grams.
(b)
To determine:
Expected weights in the F2 progeny if genotype AABB is crossed with aabb.
Introduction:
In the given scenario, it is supposed that plant weight is determined by a pair of alleles at each of two independently assorting loci (A and a, B and b) that are additive in their effects. The alleles represented by uppercase letters contribute 4 grams to plant weight, while the alleles represented by lowercase letters contribute 1 gram to plant weight.
(b)
Explanation of Solution
Gametes formed from F1 generation would be AB, Ab, aB, and ab as follows:
F2 generation is produced when F1 generation is inter-crossed and their expected plant weights would be as follows:
Highest plant weight in F2 generation would be of AABB (16 grams) and lowest would be of aabb (4 grams).

The article could be about the pathogen itself, the disease process related to the pathogen, the immune response to the pathogen, vaccines or treatments that affect the pathogen, or other biology-related study about the pathogen. I recommend that you choose a pathogen that is currently interesting to researchers, so that you will be able to find plenty of articles about it. Avoid choosing a historical disease that no longer circulates. List 3 possible pathogens or diseases that you might want to do for your group project.arrow_forward

In oxidative phosphorylation 3 ATP are produced from every one NADH molecule. In respiration, every glucose molecule produces 10 NADH molecules. If a cell is growing on 5 glucose molecules, how much ATP can be produced using oxidative phosphorylation/aerobic respiration?arrow_forward
