To determine: The
Introduction: Genes have alternate forms known as alleles which are transmitted to offspring. If the two alleles are different then there is a hybrid at F1 generation. The dominant allele out of the two alleles expresses itself and determines the phenotype. The condition caused due to dominant allele will show its effect in the homozygous dominant and heterozygous state.
b.
To predict: The outcome of genetic cross between two Dd individuals and list the genotype and phenotype ratios.
Introduction: During gamete formation, each pair of alleles of one gene segregates into gametes independently of the pair of alleles of other gene. This is based on law of independent assortment of genes. These two genes separate and enter two different gametes independent of the other. After the genetic cross, the allele combinations are predicted which determine the possible genotypes of the offspring.

- Molecular Biology Question A gene that codes for a protein was removed from a eukaryotic cell and inserted into a prokaryotic cell. Although the gene was successfully transcribed and translated, it produced a different protein than it produced in the eukaryotic cell. What is the most likely explanation?arrow_forwardMolecular Biology LIST three characteristics of origins of replicationarrow_forwardMolecular Biology Question Please help. Thank you For E coli DNA polymerase III, give the structure and function of the b-clamp sub-complex. Describe how the structure of this sub-complex is important for it’s function.arrow_forward
