1. The length of snakes can vary between 0.8m and 2.3 m long. In a large population of snakes there were just 2 of 2.3m length out of 560 snakes. How many genes are involved in determining this character?

2. A) The heights of two true-breeding strains of maize were both 1.75m and when crossed the F1 height was also 1.75m. Selfing the F1 produced an F2 with a range of heights from 1.59 to 1.91m. Out of the F2 of 451 plants there were 25 of the tallest. If the F1 was test-crossed, how many phenotypes would you observe?

B) The heights of two true-breeding strains of maize were both 1.75m and when crossed the F1 height was also 1.75m. Selfing the F1 produced an F2 with a range of heights from 1.59 to 1.91m. Out of the F2 of 451 plants there were 25 of the tallest. How many cm does each allele contribute to the phenotype?

3. In a cross of two trihybrids what would be the proportion of offspring carrying 3 dominant alleles?

Please shows the details in explanation, thx~

Expert Solution

Answer-

1) Total 4 genes are involved.

2-A) Total phenotypes = 3

2-B) Each dominant allele contributes 0.08 m or 8 cm.

3) 20 out of 64 progeny will have 3 dominant alleles. Proportion = 31.25%

A ladder of length L = 2.3 m and mass m = 14 kg rests on...

A ladder of length L = 2.3 m and mass m = 14 kg rests on a floor with coefficient of static friction μs = 0.54. Assume the wall is frictionless. A person with mass M = 69 kg now stands at the very top of the ladder. What is the normal force the floor exerts on the ladder? What is the minimum angle to keep the ladder from sliding?

A simple pendulum with mass m = 2.3 kg and length L = 2.67 m hangs from the ceiling. It is pulled back to an small angle of θ = 9.4° from the vertical and released at t = 0. What is the maximum speed of the pendulum? 4) What is the angular displacement at t = 3.57 s? (give the answer as a negative angle if the angle is to the left of the vertical) 5) What is the...

Suppose the length of a rod produced by a certain machine is uniformly distributed between 2.3 and 2.8 metres. If the specification of the rod is to be between 2.25m to 2.75m, what proportion of rods from this manufacturer will fail to meet this specification? Suppose that the compressive strength of cement coming from a certain manufacturer can be modelled with a normal distribution with a mean of 6000 kilograms per square centimetre and a standard deviation of 100 kilograms...

A massless rod of length L = 2.3 m stands up straight, fixed to the ground by a bolt. A horizontal force of 8.2 N is applied at a vertical distance of L/2 to the right. To counter this force and keep the rod stationary, a wire is fixed at the top of the rod and attached to the ground some distance away to the left, making an angle of 45 degrees to the horizontal. a) What is the tension...

A large boat with 91.44 m in length and 42.672 m in width is carrying 1,360,777.11 kg of coal along the river with a 2.7432m draft (the height from waterline to bottom of the boat). What is the draft and weight of the boat when the boat is empty (no coal)? What is the draft and weight of the boat if the boat hits a wave and looses 10 tons of coal? Treat the boat as a rectangular cylinder. Use...

a. A large solenoid with a length of 6.7 m and 31000 turns of wire carries an initial current of 4.9 A. The solenoid is aligned so that the magnetic field is produces points to the East. A small coil of wire with a radius of 0.056 m and 2 turns of wire is placed inside this solenoid so that the normal to the plane of the coil is aligned with the axis of the solenoid. The current in the...
