Question
Chapter 5, Problem 21E.4RQ
Summary Introduction
To explain: Why Pseudomonas aeruginosa did not use any of the carbohydrates in the test media and how do these microorganisms produce energy to sustain their viability.
Introduction: Bacteria are unicellular prokaryotic organisms, which maintain a definite shape since they contain the rigid cell wall. They are classified into different types based on their structures, namely coccus (spherical shaped), bacillus (rod-shaped), filamentous, spirilla (spiral-shaped), appendaged, and pleomorphic bacteria. Based on the

From the natural population, 20 plants are taken into the laboratory and developed into separate true-breeding lines by self- fertilization-with selection for high, low, or medium number of seeds-for 10 generations. The average variance in the tenth generation in each of the 20 sets is about equal and averages 5.8 across all the sets. Estimate the broad-sense heritability for seed number in this population.
