Question 26
To determine the possible genotypes and phenotypes of the offspring when a homozygous recessive male (rr) is crossed with a homozygous dominant female (RR), the Punnett square will look like this:
R R
----------------
r | Rr | Rr |
----------------
r | Rr | Rr |
----------------
Blank 1: Rr
Blank 2: Rr
Blank 3: Rr
Blank 4: Rr
Blank 5: % rough = 100%
Blank 6: % smooth = 0%
Blank 7: R
Blank 8: R
Blank 9: r
Blank 10: None
Question 27
For the cross Rr x rr:
R r
----------------
r | Rr | rr |
----------------
r | Rr | rr |
----------------
- #1: Rr
- #2: rr
- #3: Rr
- #4: rr
- #5: 2
- #6: 2
So, the ratio is 2 (rude) : 2 (respectful), or 1:1.
Question 28
In a cross between a homozygous white-eyed female (X^r X^r) and a red-eyed male (X^R Y):
X^R Y
--------------------
X^r | X^R X^r | X^r Y |
--------------------
X^r | X^R X^r | X^r Y |
--------------------
Female offspring will have a genotype of X^R X^r (red eyes) and male offspring will have a genotype of X^r Y (white eyes).
The percentage of female offspring expected to have red eyes:
100% (all female offspring have red eyes).
Question 29
Based on the descriptions provided:
- Homozygous for the “B” allele: BB
- Heterozygous for the “A” allele: Aa
- Type O: oo
- Type AB: AB
Blank 1: BB
Blank 2: Aa
Blank 3: oo
Blank 4: AB
Question 30
The offspring of Mr. Johnson (black hair, homozygous) and Mrs. Johnson (blond hair, homozygous):
Mr. Johnson's genotype is BB and Mrs. Johnson's genotype is bb. The cross would be:
B B
-----------------
b | Bb | Bb |
-----------------
b | Bb | Bb |
-----------------
Thus, all children will have black hair.
Correct answer: a. All 4 of the children would have black hair.
Question 31
The cells are described as "long chains of spherical cells that lack membrane-bound organelles." This indicates you likely have a bacterial infection, as bacteria are prokaryotic cells.
Correct answer: b. You have a bacterial infection, as bacteria are simple prokaryotic cells - and you are not.
Question 32
Given that viruses lack the characteristics of living organisms, including cellular structure:
Correct answer: c. True - if a living organism requires a cellular structure, even if they can reproduce - they are by definition non-living.
Question 33
The lytic cycle of bacteriophages involves a virus injecting its genetic material into the host cell and using the host cell's machinery to replicate itself, eventually causing the host cell to burst.
Correct answer: a. A virus injects its genetic material into the host cell, copies itself using the host's structures and resources, and then forms new viruses that burst out of the host cell.
Question 34
To determine the biological gender from a karyotype when not visible, the presence of XX indicates female and XY indicates male.
Correct answer: a. Female (if XX), b. Male (if XY). (Since the karyotype is not provided here), you'd select one based on the gender chromosomes present.
Question 35
This question isn't clear without context or specific criteria, but I can infer based on typical genetics examples:
- If “a male with dimples” suggests a dominant trait, you could assign it as: Correct answer: a. male with dimples (if that's the dominance explained).
Responses may vary based on more specific questions.
