The fоllоwing infоrmаtion is from а report on the determinаtion of silver content of galena crystals grown in a closed hydrothermal system over a range of temperatures. Let x denote the crystallization temperature in degrees centigrade, and Y the silver content in mol%. A simple linear regression was fitted for Y verses x. The observed data are as follows: x 398 292 352 575 568 450 550 408 484 350 503 600 y 0.15 0.05 0.23 0.43 0.23 0.4 0.44 0.44 0.45 0.09 0.59 0.63 Some summary statistics from the regression analysis are as follows: The least squares estimates of the intercept and the slope parameters, respectively, are:
Mаny different petаl cоlоrs аre pоssible in roses: red, white, yellow, orange, and coral. There are 4 different, independently assorting genes involved in petal coloration. Expression of the dominant (WT) alleles of all 4 genes results in wild-type coral petals. When one or more of the genes are homozygous mutant, roses with white, orange, yellow, or red petals can be obtained. Two of the genes (A and B) act in one pathway to produce red pigment and the other two genes (C and D) act in a second pathway to produce orange pigment. When both pathways function, the red and orange pigments combine to make coral petals. There is no codominance or incomplete dominance among the alleles of any of the four genes; there are only fully dominant or recessive alleles for these genes. You have two different pure breeding RED plants (note: pure breeding means they are homozygous for all genes). Both of the red plants have genotype AABB but they differ from each other in their genotypes for the C and D genes. You cross these 2 plants together and all of the F1 offspring have coral flowers. a. What are the genotypes of the two parent red plants? [answer1] (please include the genotypes of all 4 genes) b. If you cross the coral F1s to each other, what phenotypes and ratios can be expected in the F2 generation? [answer2] (be sure to include both the ratio and the phenotypes) c. What is the name of the gene interaction observed in this cross? [answer3]
