Compare and contrast two plants. Plant "A" relies upon a multicellular haploid form for reproduction. Plant "B" does not have a multicellular haploid form, and instead only has a multicellular diploid form. 1. Which plant will be more likely to survive mutations? 2. Which plant will be more successful on dry land? 3. Which plant is likely to be simpler than the other?

You are a developmental geneticist studying flowering time variation in Arabidopsis. You perform a mutagenesis screen to identify mutants in the photoperiod pathway. Given what you know about photoperiodism in Arabidopsis, what phenotype are you looking for and under what photoperiodic conditions would you perform the experiment? delayed flowering in long days delayed flowering in short days same flowering in short days early flowering in short days same flowering in long days early flowering in long days
In roses, the synthesis of red pigment is by two steps ina pathway, as follows:colorless intermediate gene Pmagenta intermediate red pigment gene Qa. What would the phenotype be of a plant homozygousfor a null mutation of gene P?b. What would the phenotype be of a plant homozygousfor a null mutation of gene Q?c. What would the phenotype be of a plant homozygousfor null mutations of genes P and Q?d. Write the genotypes of the three strains in parts a, b,and c.e. What F2 ratio is expected from crossing plants fromparts a and b? (Assume independent assortment.)
1a.Discovery of genes controlling Gibberellic Acid (GA) synthesis and perception became very important during the Green Revolution, and remain important today. Why? Select one: a. Mutants with reduced GA levels are dwarfs. Many dwarf plants were important for the Green Revolution because the shorter plants can invest more energy into economically important parts like seeds (instead of stem length). b. Mutants with reduced GA levels are more resistant to herbivore damage (like caterpillars), increasing plant yields. c. Mutants with reduced GA levels allowed farmers to control fruit ripening more accurately. d. Mutants with reduced GA levels have increased photosynthesis 1b. What features are important for overall plant form? Select one: a. Iterative development and capillary action b. Iterative development and apical dominance c. Apical dominance and stomatal conductance d. Phyllotaxis and capillary action
Potatoes can reproduce asexually. Each sprout on a parent potato can grow into a new potato plant. Sprout Potato How does the genetic material in the sprout compare to the parent potato? O The sprout has a random genetic assortment. O The sprout has twice the genetic material of the parent potato. O The parent potato has twice the genetic material of the sprout. O Both the sprout and the parent potato have the same genetic identity. INTL 02 https://student.masteryconnect.com/#

Why and when is it done? 19. Discuss the two main limitations of plant hybridization programme. 20. Interspecific crosses are rare in nature and intergeneric crosses almost unknown. Why? 21. Differentiate between pisciculture and aquaculture.
6. Compose an argument to defend whether offspring of strawberry plants or spinach plants would be more genetically diverse. For your argument, assume that strawberry plants use a form of reproduction called runners (see Figure 1) and that spinach plants reproduce through sexual reproduction. Figure 1.

. A geneticist working on a haploid fungus makes a cross between two slow-growing mutants called mossy and spider (referring to the abnormal appearance of the colonies). Tetrads from the cross are of three types (A, B, C), but two of them contain spores that do not germinate.Devise a model to explain these genetic results, and propose a molecular basis for your model.
