A cross between a plant with red flowers (R = dominant) and a plant with white flowers (r = recessive) yielded 47 plants with red flowers and 51 plants with white flowers. What are the genotypes of the parent plants? Explain. A. The results are close to a 1:1 ratio of plants with red flowers to plants with white flowers. Therefore, the genotypes of the parents are Rr and rr.
B. The results should yield plants with red flowers and plants with white flowers in a 3:1 ratio due, so the geneotype of each parent is Rr. The number of offspring was not large enough to produce the expected results.
C. The results differ from the predicted values. Therefore, the genotypes of the parents cannot be determined.
D. The results should show a ratio of 3 plants with white flowers to 1 plant with red flowers, so the genotypes of the parent plants are RR and rr.

A. The results are close to a 1:1 ratio of plants with red flowers to plants with white flowers. Therefore, the genotypes of the parents are Rr and rr.

Explanation:

I took the test and got it right.

answer:

the water molecules are transferred from the roots to the stem or top parts of the tall tree because of important properties of water which are adhesion, cohesion and capillary action. cohesion is the property of water molecules keeps water molecules in a combined state by sharing of bonds between them at the atomic level. adhesion allows the interaction of water molecules with other substances or substrate. adhesion will cause the attachment of water molecules to the wall of the vessel (xylem) of the plant. capillary action occurs when the adhesive force to the vessel wall is stronger than the cohesive force between water molecules. capillary action mimics the transfer of water from a tube or pipe. in this way water utilizes its property to transfer water from down to top level of the plant.
