Answer the following questions referring the data below. Grey colour (b^(+)//b) , normal winged (Vg^(+)//Vg) F_1 female X Black coloured (b/b) vestigial winged (Vg/Vg) male. The offspring were grey normal 126, grey vestigial 24, black normal 26 and black vestigial 124. What is the cause of above phenotypic ratio?

Answer the following questions referring the data below. Grey colour (b^(+)//b) , normal winged (Vg^(+)//Vg) F_1 female X Black coloured (b/b) vestigial winged (Vg/Vg) male. The offspring were grey normal 126, grey vestigial 24, black normal 26 and black vestigial 124. What ratio is expected in this cross? Does the above phenotypic ratio confirm the expected ratio?

In a diploid population of Drosophila 9% of the population is black in colour. Black is recessive to grey. What is the frequency of heterozygous flies in that population, if it is in Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium?

Draw the gene maps of the following: Morgan and Strutevant found recombination frequencies between 3 genes to be as follows: (i) b (black body) and vg (vestigial wings) = 18% (ii) b and cn (cinnabar eye) = 9% (iii) on and vg = 9.5%

In fruits flies, long wing is dominant to vestigial wing. When heterozygous long-winged flies were crossed with vestigial-winged flies, 192 offsprings were produced. If an exact Mendelian ratio had been obtained, then the number of each phenotype would have been

In rabbit black skin (B) is dominant over brown skin (b) and short hair (S) is dominant over long hair (s).

The radiations emitted by the sun are analyzed and the spectral energy distribution curve is plotted. as shown. The radius of the sun is R , the earth is situated a distance 'd' from the sun. Treat the sun as perfectly black body which radiates power at constant rate fill till its store of hydrogen gets exhausted. (Stefan's constant = sigma , Wien's constant =b , speed of light =c ) Assume the sun produces energy only by nuclear fusion of hydrogen nuclei and the fraction of nuclear mass of hydrogen that can be converted to energy is eta . How long will the sun keep on emittied the energy if the mass of hydrogen at present in Sun's core is m?
