Since A2 Biology is tough, there are less doubts for this part (AS) in the other threads...
so, if u guys have any problems, be free to share it and we'll try solving together:)

In a certain organism, two traits are determined by two pairs of alleles, each of which shows dominance. One trait is determined by some combination of the alleles A and a. The other trait is determined by some combination of the alleles B and b, which are located on a different chromosome from A and a. Construct a complete Punnett square to show the results of a cross between two parents with genotypes Aabb (parent #1) and AaBb (parent #2). Then determine each of the following:

a) What fraction of the offspring is expected to have the same genotype as parent #1?
b) What fraction of the offspring is expected to have the same phenotype as parent #2?
c) What fraction of the offspring is expected to be dihybrid?

Please help me, i have a test tmmw!!! if possible please mail me the answer at [email protected]

Hello. Can someone please show me how to calculate this? The answer is D
View attachment 52307
The total energy used by the plants is the energy stored + the energy lost
This equals 27000+3000 kJ/mol
So the percentage will be
energy-used/total-energy-supplied
= (27000+3000)/(1 x 10^6)
= 0.03
multiply this fraction by 100 to get percentage
= 3%

Did you get an answer for this?
If yes can you explain it to me too cause Nuclei also have a nuclear envelope right?

Can someone PLEASE, PLEASE explain this multiple choice question to me! The correct answer is D.
The cell undergoes meiosis therefore it's a reduction division and the number of chromosomes is halved.
Since 2n=2
Then n=1
So after the division 1 chromosome is present therefore this rules out the options A and C.
Now after reduction division, gametes (sex cells) are produced which contain chromosomes with one chromatid only.
Therefore the answer is D (as B is shown to consist of 2 chromatids)
