By crossing teosinte and maize through two generations (each producing F1 and F2 offspring), Dr. Beadle was able to estimate how many genes were involved in determining the major differences between the two species. F2 Offspring Ratios as Predicted by Mendelian GeneticsGenes involved Ratio of offspring expected to look like teosinte Ratio of offspring to look like maize Ratio of offspring expected to look like a mix of teosinte and maizea. 1/4 1/4 2/4 (1/2)b. 1/16 1/16 14/16 (7/8)c. 1/64 1/64 62/64 (31/32)d. 1/256 1/256 254/256 (127/128)e. 1/1024 1/1024 1022/1024 (511/512)Dr. Beadle planted about 50,000 seeds from the second cross. About 100 of these F2 offspring looked like teosinte, and about 100 like maize. Based on this result, how many genes did Dr. Beadle conclude could account for the differences between maize and teosinte?

Scientists studied reproduction in the new zealand mud snail to answer the question, “are there benefits to reproducing sexually or asexually? ” which of these hypotheses would least likely aid the scientists as they worked to answer the question? sexual reproduction is advantageous over asexual reproduction because it reduces the rate of mutation accumulation. asexual reproduction is advantageous over sexual reproduction because it allows the snails to produce more offspring. sexual reproduction is advantageous over asexual reproduction because it allows for snails to have increased genetic variation. asexual reproduction is advantageous over sexual reproduction because it decreases the snails’ need for social
