The phenotype of vestigial (short) wings (vg) in drosophila melanogaster is caused by a recessive mutant gene that independently assorts with a recessive gene for hairy (h) body. assume that a cross is made between a fly with normal wings and a hairy body and a fly with vestigial wings and normal body hair. the wild-type f1 flies were crossed among each other to produce 1024 offspring. which phenotypes would you expect among the 1024 offspring, and how many of each phenotype would you expect?

Elements and compounds are pure substances that cannot be broken down physically into a simpler substance. a physical change doesn’t break the bonds between atoms of a substance or form new ones. compounds can be broken down by a chemical change. a chemical change breaks chemical bonds and/or forms new ones between atoms of a substance. what simple substance would a compound break into? the basic elements that make it up! for example, if you passed a very strong electric current through water you’d break the chemical bonds in water and be left with oxygen and hydrogen. which of the following is an example of a chemical change? a separating water into different glasses b breaking frozen ice cubes with a hammer c running an electric current through water d boiling water to evaporate it on a stove

Is snow a type of precipitation? explain why or why not.

Chapter 11.1 & 11.2 notes section 11.1 1. every living thing has a set of ? inherited from its parents. 2. after becoming a ? , mendel spent several years studying ? and mathematics at the university of vienna. 3. during sexual reproduction, male and female reproductive cells join, a process known as ? . 4. pea flowers are normally ? , which means that sperm cells in pollen fertilize the egg cells in the ? flowers. 5. when mendel crossed plants with ? characters for the same trait, the resulting offspring had only one of the characters. 6. a ? is a specific characteristic, such as seed color or plant height, that varies from one individual to another. 7. filius and filia are the latin words for ? and ? . 8. the offspring of crosses between parents with different traits are called ? . 9.to mendel's surprise, all of the offspring had the character of only ? of the parents. 10. mendel's first conclusion was that biological inheritance is determined by ? that are ? from one generation to the next. 11. scientist calls the chemical factors that determine traits ? . 12. mendel's second conclusion is the ? . 13. the principle of dominance states that some alleles are ? and others are ? . 14. when mendel allowed the f1 plants to reproduce by self-pollination the traits controlled by ? alleles reappeared in about ? of the f2 plants in each cross.
