1. The arranging of the alleles in one progeny will not affect the other scion from the identical parents. The parents still have their genes, so most likely, they will have enough to provide for the other progeny.
2. The percentage of the first pattern of heredity is expected to be 75%T and 25%t. The genotype would be 25% homozygous dominant, 50% heterozygous dominant, and 25% homozygous recessive. The phenotype would be 3 to 1, 3 tall plants and 1 short plant. For the second pattern of heredity, the percentage is 50%T and 50%t. The genotype would be 50% homozygous dominant and 50% heterozygous dominant. The phenotype would be 4 tall plants which is 100% tall plants.
3. The percentages from class 1 is 80% and 20%. The expected percentage of class 2 is 75% and 25%, therefore they were not similar.
4. The percentages from class 1 results is 74% and 26%. The expected percentage of class 2 was 75% and 25%, therefore they were similar.
5. Since the expected results and our results were similar, I found that the pattern of heredity is trustworthy for any situation.

Conclusion: My claim is that desultory parent genes give more desultory genes for the progeny that are opted for. The desultory genes that were chosen for the offspring are following a common ratio. My hypothesis is supported because the desultory combinations led to unexpected pairs, however, followed a similar ratio to all other trials. My evidence is that the expected percentages were similar to the trials that I did and what the class had. My results is 80% and 20%, and the expected is 75% and 25%, which was similar in quantity. Similarly, the class results also had the same results, the expected is also 75% and 25%, and the class had conducted up to 74% and 26%. These trials would make the

Gregor Mendel Lab Report

monument to him.” (Chas. B. Davenport) Gregor Mendel developed a model that shows the several characteristics of organisms. These characteristics were known as “traits.” Today we call them “alleles.” Mendel discovered an amazing statement. The way we are born is not randomized. There are different percentages of chance on how each phenotype is recreated. Mendel conducted his experiment by using pea plants because they were so easy to grow and take care of. “The peas used by Mendel for hybridization…

ALLELE: alternative version of a gene-still at the same locus on the chromosome and codes for the same polypeptide but the alteration to the DNA base sequence may alter the protein's structure. Early humans in Africa almost certainly had dark skin. Melanin…

Drosophila Lab Report

male flies that had white eyes and normal wings with female flies that had red eyes and vestigial wings. Based off of our parent generation, we calculated and analyzed and chi-squared test and compared our observed numbers of each phenotypes to our expected numbers. The Drosophila species is a very beneficial organism to study because 75 percent of the genes that cause disease in humans can also be found in the Drosophila and the reproduction cycle allows for analyzation of several generations within…

Chapter 6 Explain what free energy is and how it can be used to predict the energetic outcome of chemical reactions.Free energy is defined as the energy available to do work in any system. The free energy is denoted by the symbol G. G = H – TS* H: the energy contained in a molecule’s chemical bonds, called enthalpy.* TS: the energy term related to the degree of disorder in the system. T is the absolute temperature (K), and S is the entropy.We can use the change in free energy to predict whether…

Development from Conception to Birth Suleima Godinez PSY 235 Dr. Schultz Introduction When a woman becomes pregnant, her body becomes invaded by something so tiny that brings big changes. She begins to feel symptoms such as nausea, unexplained tiredness, tenderness in breasts and lots more. There are three periods that the pregnancy is divided into: germinal, embryonic, and fetal. Throughout these periods major developments happen with the “baby”. The…

1111 Steroid Hormones and Risk of Breast Cancer Barbara S. Hulka, M.D., M.P.H.,* Edison T. Liu, M.D.,t and Ruth A. Lininger, M.D., M.P.H.$ Background. More than three decades of epidemiologic studies have identified numerous risk factors for breast cancer. These factors have been estimated to account for only 20-25% of disease occurrence. However, among these factors, several are related to sex steroid hormones: sex of the affected individuals [women), early age of menarche and late…
