Question: [QUESTION]What is the expected ratio of offspring with wavy fur to offspring with straight fur? Choose the most likely ratio.
Solution: To determine how many boxes in the Punnett square represent offspring with wavy fur or straight fur, consider whether each phenotype is the dominant or recessive allele's version of the fur texture trait. The question tells you that the F allele, which is for straight fur, is dominant over the f allele, which is for wavy fur.
Wavy fur is the recessive allele's version of the fur texture trait. A Syrian hamster with the recessive version of the fur texture trait must have only recessive alleles for the fur texture gene. So, offspring with wavy fur must have the genotype ff.
There are 2 boxes in the Punnett square with the genotype ff. These boxes are highlighted below.
Straight fur is the dominant allele's version of the fur texture trait. A Syrian hamster with the dominant version of the fur texture trait must have at least one dominant allele for the fur texture gene. So, offspring with straight fur must have the genotype FF or Ff.
There are 2 boxes in the Punnett square with the genotype FF or Ff. These boxes are highlighted below.
So, the expected ratio of offspring with wavy fur to offspring with straight fur is 2:2. This means that, on average, this cross will produce 2 offspring with wavy fur for every 2 offspring with straight fur. | TheMrguiller/ScienceQA |

Question: [QUESTION]Compare the average kinetic energies of the particles in each sample. Which sample has the higher temperature?
Solution: The particles in both samples have the same average speed, but each particle in sample A has more mass than each particle in sample B. So, the particles in sample A have a higher average kinetic energy than the particles in sample B.
Because the particles in sample A have the higher average kinetic energy, sample A must have the higher temperature. | TheMrguiller/ScienceQA |
Question: [QUESTION]Will these magnets attract or repel each other?
Solution: Will these magnets attract or repel? To find out, look at which poles are closest to each other.
The south pole of one magnet is closest to the north pole of the other magnet. Poles that are different attract. So, these magnets will attract each other. | TheMrguiller/ScienceQA |
Question: [QUESTION]Which animal's mouth is also adapted for bottom feeding?
Solution: Look at the picture of the armored catfish.
The armored catfish's mouth is located on the underside of its head and points downward. Its mouth is adapted for bottom feeding. The armored catfish uses its mouth to find food hidden in the sediment at the bottom of rivers and streams.
Now look at each animal. Figure out which animal has a similar adaptation.
The sturgeon's mouth is located on the underside of its head and points downward. Its mouth is adapted for bottom feeding.
The clown triggerfish's mouth is not located on the underside of its head. Its mouth is not adapted for bottom feeding. | TheMrguiller/ScienceQA |
