The genes for the traits that Mendel worked with are either all located on different chromosomes or behave as if they were. How did this help Mendel recognize the principle of independent assortment? a. Otherwise, his dihybrid crosses would not have produced a 9 : 3 : 3 : 1 ratio of F2 phenotypes.
b. The occurrence of individuals with unexpected phenotypes led him to the discovery of recombination.
c. It led him to the realization that the behavior of chromosomes during meiosis explained his results.
d. It meant that the alleles involved were either dominant or recessive, which gave 3 : 1 ratios in the F1 generation.

Answer:

Otherwise, his dihybrid crosses would not have produced a 9 : 3 : 3 : 1 ratio of F2 phenotypes.

Explanation:

The random separation of alleles of different genes to the opposite poles of the cell requires that the genes are present on the different chromosomes. In this case, the random segregation of alleles of two genes produces new allele combinations in the progeny. The genes may be present on the same chromosome. These linked genes do not exhibit the random separation of their alleles.

Mendel obtained the 9:3:3:1 ratio since the two genes of a dihybrid cross were present on the different chromosomes. This allowed the independent assortment of their alleles. If the genes were linked, he would have obtained more of the parental types and less or no recombinant progeny in the F2 generation. Therefore, the F2 phenotypic ratio would have deviated.

During which process do alleles undergo segregation?a. DNA replication.
b. Mitosis.
c. Meiosis.
d. Transcription.

Answers

Alleles undergo segregation ispresent in the mitosis. The answer is B. The first stage is prophase. Thenucleolus disappears and the two centrosomes begin to form the mitotic spindle.The spindle xtends between two opposite poles f the cell. Next is the metaphase.The centromeres of the chromatid pairs align at the center of the mioticspindle. Then anaphase, the centromeres will split that separates the chromatidpair. In here, alleles are formed. They are now called chromosomes. The lastphase is the telophase. The chromosomes will then form a thread-like chromatinand for ache envelope, a nucleoli appears.

Describe how the types of vegetation present on this farmland would change if a fire burned down all thetrees 120 years after the land was abandoned.

Answers

Since you provide no further information, The types of vegetation that would exist after a fire burn down are those who are typically unaffected by the change in topography and left substances (such as carbon) after the fire. Some example of these vegetations are :  Pines and Giant sequoia
