Q. Aeration and agitation function synergistically to maximize the volumetric mass transfer coefficient (k_La) while maintaining homogeneous mixing. Consider the following statements regarding their respective roles:

P: Sparging introduces gas into the liquid to supply O2 and strip out metabolic CO2, thereby providing the necessary gas holdup (ε).

Q: Agitation relies on low-shear hydrofoil impellers to decrease the bubble residence time, ensuring rapid gas turnover in high-density cultures.

R: The mechanical action of impellers serves to thin the liquid film resistance (k_L), which facilitates better mass transfer across the gas-liquid interface.

S: The synergistic effect of aeration and agitation is primarily aimed at minimizing the specific interfacial area (a) to prevent foaming.

Which of the following combinations represents the correct statements?

In garden peas, the allele for tall plants (D) is completely dominant to the allele for dwarf plants (d) and the allele for violet flower color (W) is completely dominant to the allele for white flower color (w). In a cross between a tall violet plant, with the genotype DDWw, and a dwarf white plant, what phenotypic ratio of the progeny would be expected from this cross?
