In tomato plant, red (R) is dominant over yellow (r) for fruit color and purple (P) is dominant over green (p) for stem color. Fruit color and stem color assort independently. The number of progeny plants of different fruit/stem colors obtained from a mating are as follows:
Red fruit, purple stem - 145
Red fruit, green stem - 184
Yellow fruit, purple stem - 66
Yellow fruit, green stem - 47
What are the genotypes of the parent plants in this mating?

35.
Determine the correctness or otherwise of the following Assertion (A) and the Reason (R).
Assertion: Isopropylthiogalactoside (IPTG) is a gratuitous inducer of lactose operon.
Reason: Gratuitous inducers are chemical analogs which behave like natural inducer but they do not serve as substrate for the enzymes that are subsequently synthesized.

Hypophosphatemia is manifested by an X-linked dominant allele. What proportion of the offspring from a normal male and an affected heterozygous female will manifest the disease?

37.

40.
