Following statements are regarding to the microtubules.

A. Tubulin is the major structural component of microtubules

B. Microtubule-associated proteins (MAPs) associate with tubulin and help mediate the assembly, dynamics, and function of microtubules.

C. Free tubulin exists as a dimer in which the α-subunit contains a trapped and hydrolyzable GTP and theβ-subunit binds an exchangeable and nonhydrolyzable GTP

D. All microtubules are nucleated from microtubule-organizing centers (MTOCs), and many remain anchored with their (−) ends there. Thus the end away from the MTOC is always the (+) end.

#Unit 8. Inheritance Biology

Assume that three loci, each with two alleles (A and a, B and b, C and c), determine the differences in height between two homozygous strains of a plant. These genes are additive and equal in their effects on plant height. One strain (aabbcc) is 10 cm in height. The other strain (AABBCC) is 22 cm in height. The two strains are crossed, and the resulting F1 are interbred to produce 1000 F2 progeny. what is number of F2 progeny having intermediate height?
