In humans, albinism (unpigmented skin, hair, and eyes) is due to an enzymatic deficiency, and it is an autosomal recessive trait. Suppose that in a small country of one million people (“Generation 1”), there are 500 aa albinos and 9000 Aa heterozygous carriers. What is the probability that a child will be albino if: Both parents are members of Generation 2, and one parent is albino and the other is non-albino.

Stomata from intact, attached leaves of Arabidopsis illuminated with blue, red, and green light in a growth chamber, increases and decreases their aperture in response to light.

 

Find the CORRECT statements from the above graph.

i) Stomatal aperture increases when the green light is turned off, and close when the green light is turned on again

ii) Stomata from the phototropin-less double mutant phot1/phot2 respond to blue light and open further when green light is turned off

iii) stomata from the zeaxanthin less mutant npq1 do not respond to blue light and least effect to opening of the stomata further when green light is turned off

iv) the npq1 mutant and phot1/phot2 double mutant response indicate that the green reversal of the blue-light response requires zeaxanthin but also phototropin
