Do you think artificial selection can regulate the effects of the factors that affects or results to population change? 

could you please help me write a balanced chemical equation to show the dissociation of propanoic acid (C₂H₅COOH) with its states symbols.

and a balanced chemical equation to show the dissociation of sodium propanoate (C₂H₅COONa) also with its state symbols.

Roger is legally blind. His vision impairment is a complication of diabetes mellitus. Can you describe what structural changes in Roger’s eyes have caused his blindness? As you were helping him cross the street, a fellow pedestrian suddenly stumbled into your path. Without any signal from you, Roger jumped back to avoid hitting the other person. If Roger is blind, how could he have reacted this way?

Hi,

could you please help me answer this question on genetic.

In a different species of plant, bell shaped flower is dominant to tube shaped flower and the gene controlling this trait is inherited in normal Mendelian fashion. Flower colour can be either red, white, or in combination pink. The two genes are not linked.

Give a reasoned explanation for the simultaneous transmission of characteristics, the possible outcomes of crossing a heterozygous bell flowered plant with pink flowers, and a tube flowered plant with white flowers. You should also clearly identify the phenotypic combinations that are not possible from this cross. 

Many thanks in advance!  

in order for a reccesive trait to show the genotype must be

In tomatoes, red fruit is dominant to yellow fruit and hairy stems are dominant to hairless (smooth) stems. The two genes controlling these traits are inherited in normal Mendelian fashion and are not linked.

a)   Produce a suitable key for this information in terms of the individual alleles of the genes given.                                                                                 

b)   What are the possible genotypes of plants showing the following forms:    

i)              Red fruit and smooth stems

ii)             Yellow fruit and hairy stems

iii)           Red fruit and hairy stems 

Does crossing two plants, each heterozygous for two traits, always produce a phenotypic ratio of 9:3:3:1 in the offspring? A) Yes, unless there are linked genmes, incomplete dominance, or, in animals, sex chromosomes involved. B)Yes, regardless of the situation. C) No, because the results of each cross are completely random D) None of these is correct
