The pressure-flow model explains phloem translocation as a flow of solution (bulk flow) driven by an osmotically generated pressure gradient between source and sink.

a) Phloem translocation, both active and passive mechanisms were considered. All theories, both active and passive, assume an energy requirement in both sources and sinks.

b) In sources, energy is necessary to move photosynthate from producing cells into the sieve elements. This movement of photosynthate is called phloem loading.

c) In sinks, energy is essential for some aspects of movement from sieve elements to sink cells, which store or metabolize the sugar. This movement of photosynthate from sieve elements to sink cells is called phloem unloading.

d) The Active mechanisms of phloem transport further assume that energy is required in the sieve elements of the path between sources and sinks simply to maintain structures.

From the given statements find out the correct for pressure-flow model.

In Drosophila melanogaster, cinnabar eye (cn)and vestigial wing (vg) are simple recessive traits.a A male pure line wild type eye ,vestigial wing cross with female pure line cinnabar eye, wild type wing . F1female, heterozygous for both genes, was crossed with a male with cinnabar eyes and vestigial wings. The offspring resulting from this cross are listed in below class

I Wild type

II Cinnabar eye, wild-type wing

III Wild-type eye, vestigial wing

IV Cinnabar eye, vestigial wing

Above class are recombinant progeny

True breeding brown dogs with genotype aabb were cross to true breeding white dogs with genotype AABB. All F1 offspring having white phenotype were allowed to intercross to produce F2 progeny as following number –

A- - - 118 white,

aa B- 32 black

aa bb 10 brown

A Male Dog with AaBb genotype was cross with female dog with aabb genotype. What is probability of Black phenotype among their offspring if A gene link B gene at 10 map unit at cis configuration?

#Unit 8. Inheritance Biology

In watermelons, bitter fruit (B) is dominant over sweet fruit (b), and yellow spots (S) are dominant over no spots (s). The genes for these two characteristics link at 30 map unit. A homozygous plant that has bitter fruit and yellow spots is crossed with a homozygous plant that has sweet fruit and no spots. If an F1 plant is backcrossed with the sweet fruit, no spot parent, what are the phenotypes ratio expected in the their offspring
