When cross-1 is done between white mutant A and white mutant B, the resulting F1 progeny is wild type (Purple). Analyze the results obtained from self-fertilization between F1 progeny and determine phenotypic ratio and phenotypic distribution among F2 progeny. Introduction: The condition mentioned above can be answered with the help of complementation test. Complementation test is performed in such a situation as it helps us understand whether the mutation that has occurred is cis mutation (mutation in same gene) or trans mutation (mutation in different set of gene). Complementation occurs when the progeny with normal (wild type) phenotype is observed from crossing between two organisms with different homozygous recessive mutation. On the other hand, complementation is not observed when mutation is in the same gene. Mendel's second law is the law of independent assortment. According to this law, when cross is done for more than one trait (two or more), the traits organize independently (selection of one trait is not dependent on another), so different phenotypes may occur with equal probability.

Outline a method for using apomixis to maintain feminized CannabisAssume apomixis is controlled by a single dominant gene. You can choose the type of apomixis: obligate or facultative, gametophytic or sporophytic. Discuss advantages and disadvantages of your proposed method.

Kinetics: One-Compartment First-Order Absorption 1. In vivo testing provides valuable insight into a drug’s kinetics. Assessing drug kinetics following multiple routes of administration provides greater insight than a single route of administration alone. The following data was collected in 250-g rats following bolus IV, oral (PO), and intraperitoneal (ip) administration. Using this data and set of graphs, determine:(calculate for each variable) (a) k, C0, V, and AUC* for the bolus iv data (b) k, ka, B1, and AUC* for the po data c) k, ka, B1, and AUC* for the ip data (d) relative bioavailability for po vs ip, Fpo/Fip (e)absolute ip bioavailability, Fip (f) absolute po bioavailability, Fpo

3. A promising new drug is being evaluated in human trials. Based on preliminary human tests, this drug is most effective when plasma levels exceed 30 mg/L. Measurements from preliminary tests indicate the following human pharmacokinetic parameter values: t1/2,elim = 4.6hr, t1/2,abs = 0.34hr, VD = 0.29 L/kg, Foral = 72%. Based on these parameters, estimate the following if a 49 kg woman were to receive a 1000mg oral dose of this drug: (a) Estimate the plasma concentration of the drug at 1hr, 6 hr, and 20hr after taking the drug ( Concentration estimate) (b) Estimate the time for maximum plasma concentration (tmax). (c) Estimate the maximum plasma concentration (Cmax). (d) Estimate the time at which the plasma level first rises above 30 mg/L. (Note this is a trial and error problem where you must guess a time, plug it into the concentration equation, and determine if it is close to 30 mg/L. Hint: based on part (a) it should be apparent that the answer is less than 1hr.) (e)…
