To determine: The probability of collecting different colouerd marbles from each jar.
Introduction. The genetic material is all the living organism is the DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid). All the eukaryotes as well the prokaryotes have defined set of DNA sequence, which is inherited from one generation to another and codes for all the characters of the organism.

A ? a Aa aa a Aa aa a logic problem an F2 crosS a Punnett square a test crosS O an incomplete crossarrow_forwardYou have a box full of objects (several thousand). One half of the objects are cubes, one quarter of the objects are spheres, and one quarter of the objects are pyramids. You draw two objects out of the box. What is the probability that one of them is a sphere and the other is a pyramid (order not important)?

- Punnett's Squares These show the 2 alleles of each parent plant crossed with each other and the resulting 4 possible offspring with T=tall, t=short TT=dominant tall, tt=recessive short, Tt=mixed hybrid Using the Punnett's square below, name the offspring of all posible parent combination.arrow_forward(b) A plant breeder wants to use selective breeding to produce corn with short stalKS and a high mass of grain. He could use the following varieties of com: varlety A varlety B varlety C long stalks short stalks long stalks high mass of grain low mass of grain low mass of grain (i) What would the plant breeder need to do to make sure he always produced corn with short stalks and a high mass of grain? Describe the three steps the breeder would use. (ii) Suggest one other characteristic that famers might like corn plants to have to increase the amount of corn produced.arrow_forwardWhy plant breeders intend to change the inheritance of crop plants?
