What else can I help you with?
Is inter specific breeding possible?
Yes in some species. Probably the best known is a cross between a horse and a donkey, producing a mule, which is a sterile hybrid.
What is any mechanism that impedes two species from producing fertile or viable offspring?
A mechanism that impedes two species from producing fertile or viable offspring is called a reproductive barrier. These barriers can be prezygotic, such as temporal isolation (where species breed at different times) or behavioral isolation (where different mating rituals prevent mating), or postzygotic, like hybrid inviability (where hybrid offspring do not survive) or hybrid sterility (where hybrids are sterile, like mules). These mechanisms help maintain species boundaries and promote speciation by limiting gene flow between populations.
In a hybrid plant if every allele combination has two alleles what is the probability of one allele?
The probability of inheriting a specific allele in a hybrid plant would be 1/2 or 50%, as each parent contributes one allele and there are two possible alleles for a specific gene. Each offspring has an equal chance of inheriting either allele from the parent.
What do biologists call the offspring of crosses between parents with different traits?
Are called hybrids
A hybrid is a cross between two species?
In genetics, the word hybrid can mean several things. In general, hybrid refers to the combination of two different things (eg. genes) to create something new. The two most common meanings of hybrid are: - an organism with two different alleles (versions of a gene) for a specific trait (eg. Bb, Tt). This means the organism is heterozygous for that gene. - the offspring of two genetically distinct organisms (this would also be called a heterozygote).
What is the probability of producing a tall pea from a genetic cross between two hybrid tall pea plants?
It is 1/4.
What is the probability of a hybrid offspring in a cross between two hybrid plants?
The hybrid is the offspring so the probability is 1.
What is the probability of producing a tall pea plants from a genetic cross between two hybrid tall pea plants?
It is 1/4.
What is the probability of producing a tall pea plant from a cross between two hybrid tall pea plants?
3 in 4 or 3 out of 4
What did mendel predict was the probability of producing a tal plant from a genetic cross of two hybrid tall piants?
Mendel predicted a 3:1 ratio for producing a tall plant from a genetic cross of two hybrid tall plants. This means that there is a 75% probability of producing a tall plant and a 25% probability of producing a short plant.
What did Mendel predict was a probability of producing a tall plant from a genetic cross of two hybrid tall plant?
because he is only person who predict the probability of tall and short plants is tall plant was 3 in 4 and the short plant was 1 in 4
What did Mendel predict was the probability of producing a tall plant from a genetic cross of two hybrid tall plants?
because he is only person who predict the probability of tall and short plants is tall plant was 3 in 4 and the short plant was 1 in 4
What is the probability that a cross between a hybrid pea plant with round seeds and one with wrinkled seeds will produce offspring with wrinkled seeds?
The probability that an offspring will have wrinkled seeds is 2 in 4 or 50%
Why is it necessary to use the same genes from different species when producing hybrid DNA?
It is necessary to use the same genes from different species when producing hybrid DNA to realize better resistance.
Is inter specific breeding possible?
Yes in some species. Probably the best known is a cross between a horse and a donkey, producing a mule, which is a sterile hybrid.
What are two genes in a hybrid?
In genetics, a hybrid is crossing two species. It involves more that two genes. A mule is the hybrid of donkey and a mare (horse). If you cross a stallion with a jenny (female donkey) you will get a henny. A henny has no value.
What is the significance of apomixis?
Apomixis is the mechanism of seed production without involving the process of meiosis and syngamy. It plays an important role in hybrid seed production. The method of producing hybrid seeds by cultivation is very expensive for farmers. Also, by sowing hybrid seeds, it is difficult to maintain hybrid characters as characters segregate during meiosis. Apomixis prevents the loss of specific characters in the hybrid. Also, it is a cost-effective method for producing seeds.
