Genetic inheritance is being studied in a certain species of plant in which orange flower color (o) is dominant to white (o) and round leaf shape (s) is dominant to oval (s). a true-breeding orange-flowered, round-leaved male plant (plant a) is mated with a true-breeding white-flowered, oval-leaved female plant (plant b) to produce dihybrid offspring plant (plant c). assuming normal mendelian genetics and independent inheritance of these two traits, which gametes might be produced by plant c?

OS, Os, oS, os

Explanation:

To do this, first we need to determine what the genotype of the Plant C offspring is. Since the parents are both true bred, this means that their offspring will get one allele of each parent, of each trait.

Here's a Punnett to help you there

OOSS x ooss

            os        os         os          os

OS     OoSs   OoSs   OoSs     OoSs

OS     OoSs   OoSs   OoSs     OoSs

OS     OoSs   OoSs   OoSs     OoSs

OS     OoSs   OoSs   OoSs     OoSs

So Plant C would have a genotype of OoSs.

A good trick to determining the gametes of a dihybrid, is the FOIL method. Just like in math, F- first, O-outside, I- inside, and L-Last

Look at the attachment to see the FOIL method:

a fossil fuel is a fuel formed by natural processes, such as anaerobic decomposition of buried dead organisms, containing energy originating in ancient photosynthesis.[1] the age of the organisms and their resulting fossil fuels is typically millions of years, and sometimes exceeds 650 million years.[2] fossil fuels contain high percentages of carbon and include petroleum, coal, and natural gas.[3] other commonly used derivatives include kerosene and propane. fossil fuels range from volatile materials with low carbon to hydrogen ratios like methane, to liquids like petroleum, to nonvolatile materials composed of almost pure carbon, like anthracite coal. methane can be found in hydrocarbon fields either alone, associated with oil, or in the form of methane clathrates.

the theory that fossil fuels formed from the fossilized remains of dead plants by exposure to heat and pressure in the earth's crust over millions of years was first introduced by andreas libavius "in his 1597 alchemia [alchymia]" and later by mikhail lomonosov "as early as 1757 and certainly by 1763".[4] the first use of the term "fossil fuel" was by the german chemist caspar neumann, in english translation in 1759.[5]

in 2017 the world's primary energy sources consisted of petroleum (34%), coal (28%), natural gas (23%), amounting to an 85% share for fossil fuels in primary energy consumption in the world.[6] non-fossil sources in 2006 included nuclear (8.5%), hydroelectric (6.3%), and others (geothermal, solar, tidal, wind, wood, waste) amounting to 0.9%.[7] world energy consumption was growing at about 2.3% per year. in 2015 about 18% of worldwide consumption was from renewable sources.[8]
