Question: [QUESTION]Which property do these four objects have in common?
Solution: Look at each object.
For each object, decide if it has that property.
An opaque object does not let light through. All four objects are opaque.
A slippery object is hard to hold onto or stand on. The ball of wet clay is slippery, but the rubber band is not.
A hard object does not change shape when pressed or squeezed. The apple seeds and the crown are hard, but the rubber band and the ball of wet clay are not.
The property that all four objects have in common is opaque.

Question: [QUESTION]Based on this information, what is this plant's phenotype for the ground spot color trait?
Solution: The watermelon plant's genotype for the ground spot color gene is gg. The watermelon plant's genotype of gg has only g alleles. The g allele is for a white ground spot. So, the watermelon plant's phenotype for the ground spot color trait must be a white ground spot.
To check this answer, consider whether the watermelon plant's alleles are dominant or recessive. The allele for a yellow ground spot (G) is dominant over the allele for a white ground spot (g). This means G is a dominant allele, and g is a recessive allele.
The watermelon plant's genotype of gg has only recessive alleles. An organism with only recessive alleles for a gene will have the recessive allele's version of the trait. So, the watermelon plant's phenotype for the ground spot color trait must be a white ground spot.

Question: [QUESTION]Which logical fallacy is used in the text?
Most students who take the school's Advanced Computer Science class go on to major in computer science. Clearly, the course must be the reason why students major in computer science.
Solution: The text argues that the school's Advanced Computer Science class is the reason students choose to major in computer science. The text states that most of the students who take that class continue on with the major. However, the class isn't necessarily the reason they do so. For example, the students who take the advanced class may already be interested in majoring in computer science. This illustrates a type of logical fallacy known as false causation.

Question: [QUESTION]Based on this information, what is this plant's phenotype for the flower position trait?
Solution: The pea plant's genotype for the flower position gene is ff. The pea plant's genotype of ff has only f alleles. The f allele is for terminal flowers. So, the pea plant's phenotype for the flower position trait must be terminal flowers.
To check this answer, consider whether the pea plant's alleles are dominant or recessive. The allele for terminal flowers (f) is recessive to the allele for axial flowers (F). This means F is a dominant allele, and f is a recessive allele.
The pea plant's genotype of ff has only recessive alleles. An organism with only recessive alleles for a gene will have the recessive allele's version of the trait. So, the pea plant's phenotype for the flower position trait must be terminal flowers.

Question: [QUESTION]What is the expected ratio of offspring with a yellow ground spot to offspring with a white ground spot? Choose the most likely ratio.
Solution: To determine how many boxes in the Punnett square represent offspring with a yellow ground spot or a white ground spot, consider whether each phenotype is the dominant or recessive allele's version of the ground spot color trait. The question tells you that the g allele, which is for a white ground spot, is recessive to the G allele, which is for a yellow ground spot.
A yellow ground spot is the dominant allele's version of the ground spot color trait. A watermelon plant with the dominant version of the ground spot color trait must have at least one dominant allele for the ground spot color gene. So, offspring with a yellow ground spot must have the genotype GG or Gg.
All 4 boxes in the Punnett square have the genotype GG or Gg.
A white ground spot is the recessive allele's version of the ground spot color trait. A watermelon plant with the recessive version of the ground spot color trait must have only recessive alleles for the ground spot color gene. So, offspring with a white ground spot must have the genotype gg.
There are 0 boxes in the Punnett square with the genotype gg.
So, the expected ratio of offspring with a yellow ground spot to offspring with a white ground spot is 4:0. This means that, based on the Punnett square, this cross will always produce offspring with a yellow ground spot. This cross is expected to never produce offspring with a white ground spot.
