In rabbits, short hair (S) is dominant over long hair (s). What genotype and phenotype ratios are expected from a cross between two heterozygous shorthaired rabbits?

Genotype                  Phenotype                      

SS                 1/4          Short hair         3/4

Ss                 2/4         Short hair          3/4

ss                  1/4          Long hair          1/4

Explanation:

The resulting off-spring would have the following genotype and phenotype:

1 out of 4 will have a genotype of SS.

2 out of 4 or half will have a genotype of Ss.

1 out of 4 will have a genotype of ss.

But because short hair is dominant the phenotype ratios would differ because Ss and SS would express short hair, so we add up their ration:

Short hair: 1/4 + 2/4 = 3/4

Long hair:  1/4

the sugar-phosphate backbone forms the structural framework of nucleic acids, including dna and rna. this backbone is composed of alternating sugar and phosphate groups, and defines directionality of the molecule.

the dna molecules have a negative charge because of the phosphate groups in their sugar-phosphate backbone, so they start moving through the matrix of the gel towards the positive pole. power is turned on and dna fragments migrate through gel (towards the positive electrode).
