If a fly has a diploid number of 12, how many chromosomes
would there be in each cell at the end of telophase of
mitosis?
Answer Posted / ashok matcha
As mitosis is not a reduction cell division as meiosis the chromosomal number is always constant from one generation to other generation. while in meiosis the chromosomal number will be halfed during the meiosis 1 and meiosis 2 will be same as mitosis producing 4 daughter cell. so in mitosis diploid nature persists(12 chromosomes) but in meiosis cell becomes haploid (6 chromosomes) so that it becomes 12 chromosomes when it fuses with corresponding sperm of ovum such that genetic integrity in maintained

Is There any way in which a currently living could be mutated in reality to such a large scale as to which others could see the mutation, such as a third arm?

In sesame, the one-pod condition (P) is dominant to the three-pod condition (p), and normal leaf (L) is dominant over wrinkled leaf (l). The two characters are inherited independently. Determine the genotypes and phenotypes of the two plants which produce the following progeny: 318 one- pod normal, 98 one-pod wrinkled, 323 three-pod normal and 104 three-pod wrinkled.
What are the differences between Genetic Engineering and breeding?
Flower position, stem length, and seed shape were three traits that were studied by Mendel. Each is controlled by an independently assorting gene. If a plant that is heterozygous for all three traits was allowed to self- fertilize, what proportion of the offspring would be expected to show all three dominant phenotypes?
Why does RNA have 5 bases and DNA has only 4?
In the definition of mutation we say sudden heritable change i the DNA, so what does sudden means here?

A single base exchange mutation occurs in the promoter of the TRP operon. How the operation of the HIS operon might be affected in two ways?
A number of plant species have a recessive allele for albinism; homozygous albino (white) individuals are unable to synthesize chlorophyll. If a tobacco plant heterozygous for albinism is allowed to self-pollinate and 500 seeds germinate: a)how many offspring will be the same genotype as the parent? b)how many seedlings would you expect to be white?
A base deletion occurs in the regulator gene of the LAC operon. Describe how the operation of the LAC operon might be affected?
How will you differentiate alleles of a gene in the double strand of DNA?
In mice colored coat is dominant to albinism. Sniffles, a male mouse with a colored coat is mated to Esmeralda, an alluring albino. The resulting litter of six young all had colored fur. The next time around Esmeralda was mated with Whiskers, who was the same color as Sniffles; some of this litter were white. a)What are the probable genotypes of Sniffles, Esmeralda, and Whiskers? b) If a male of the 1st litterwas mated to a colored female of the 2nd litter, what phenotypic ratio might be expected among the offspring? c)What would be the expected results if a male of the 1st litter was mated to an albino from the 2nd?
