females with yellow flowers and smooth leaves ales with red fowers and rough leaves QUESTONellow lowers and rough leaves In the moss Polytrichum commune, the haploid chromosome number is 7, A haploid male gamete fuses with a haploid female gamete to form a diploid cell that divides and develops into the multiceflular sporophyte. Cells of tha sporophyte undergo meiosis to produce haploid cells called spores. What is the probability that an individual spore will contain a set of chromosomes all of which came from the male gamete? (You may assume that no crossing over occurs during melosis.) 0.5 0.143 0.008 there's not enough information to tell QUESTION 5 uh.edulwebapps/assessmentakelsunch jsp?oourse assessment jd-224116 1course id 95347 18contenrt id- 4406286 18st. 1

Explanation / Answer

Male gamete - haploid (7)

Female gamete - haploid (7)

The diploid cell (14) performs meiosis and become haploid (7)

There is no crossing over. Each synapsed maternal and paternal chromosome pair will separate and go to two gametes.

There are 7 chromosomes. Each chromosome has 1/2 chance of coming from the male parent.

(1/2)7 = 1/128 = 0078 = .008
