You are examining a system in which there is MATERNAL IMPRINTING. Which of the crosses below would result in a 1:1 ratio of wild-type to mutant?

A.) female aa X male AA

B.) female Aa x male AA

C.) female Aa x male Aa

D.) female AA x male aa

Answer.

C.) female Aa x male Aa

Explanation.

Maternal imprinting means that the allele of a particular gene inherited from the mother is transcriptionally silent and the paternally- inherited allele is active. Paternal imprinting is the opposite; the paternally-inherited allele is silenced and the maternally-inherited allele is active.Oct

You are examining the viability of a capital investment in which your firm is interested. The project will require an initial investment of $500,000 and the projected revenues are $400,000 a year for five years. The projected cost-of-goods-sold is 40% of revenues, and the tax rate is 40%. The initial investment is primarily in plant and equipment and can be depreciated straight line over five years (the salvage value is zero). The project makes use of other resources that your...
