We are now going to count the amount of ATPs that fat, sugar, and ethanol can produce per equivalent carbons. In this case, 12 carbons. We will compare sucrose, lauric acid, and six molecules of ethanol.Sucrose is cleaved to glucose and fructose by sucrase.How many ATP is produced from the COMPLETE oxidation of sucrose in the muscle. Assume 1NADH=3 ATP, 1FADH2=2ATP and 1 GTP= 1ATP

A dominant gene, b+, is responsible for the wild-type body color of Drosophila. It’s recessive allele, b, produces black body color. A testcross of a wild-type female produced 52 black flies and 58 wild-type flies in the F1 generation.

a. What are the genotypes of the parents?

b. What are the genotypes of the F1 generation?

c. If the wild-type F1 females are crossed with their black F1 brothers, what genotypic and phenotypic ratios would be expected in their F2 offspring?
