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?

E. coli cells were spread on an agar plate, producing 1000 colonies.  The colonies are replica plated on two agar plates containing the antibiotic kanamycin and one agar plate without antibiotics.  All of the colonies are able to grow on the agar plate without antibiotic but only 4 colonies are able to grow on each of the agar plates containing kanamycin.  You notice that the four colonies that grew on each of the kanamycin containing plates are in the exact same position.  This demonstrates
