A trihybrid cross is made between two yeasts, both with genotype AaBbCc. What proportion of the offspring will be of the genotype aabbcc?

A cross was carricd out between a pure bred tall pea plant and a pure bred dwarf pea plant and F_(1) progeny was obtained. Later, the F_(1) progeny was selfed to obtain F_(2) progeny. Answer the following questions : (i) What is the phenotype of the F, progeny and why? (ii) Give the phenotypic ratio of the F_(2) progeny. (iii) Why is the F_(2) progeny different from the F_(1) progeny?

In a cross between plants with purple flowers and plants with white flowers the offsprings of F_(1) generation all had white flowers. When the F_(1) generation was self-crossed, it was observed in the F_(2) generation that out of 100, 75 flowers were white. Make a cross and answer the following : (i) What are the genotypes of the F_(2) progeny? (ii) What is the ratio of 'White : Purple' flowers in the F_(2) generation?

List two differences in tabular form between dominant trait and recessive traits. What percentage / proportion of the plants in the F_(2) generation/progeny were round, in Mendel's cross between round and wrinkled pea plants?

A block of mass m= 1 kg , moving on a horizontal surface with speed v_(t)= 2 ms^(-1) enters a rough patch ranging from x= 0.10m" to "x= 2.01m . The retarding force F_(r ) on the block in this range is inversely proportional to x over this range, F_(r )= (-k)/(x)" for "0.1 lt x lt 2.01m = 0 " for "x lt 0.1m" and "x gt 2.01m where k= 0.5 J . What is the final kinetic energy and speed v_(f) of the block as it crosses this patch?
