Which of the following is consistent with the hypothesis of blending inheritance?
a. crossing a purple-flowered pea plant with a white-flowered pea plant
produces only purple-flowered offspring
b. great variability in traits is found within any biological population.
c. crossing two pea plants with yellow seeds produces some offspring with
green seeds
d. a phenotype from the "p" generation of a heredity experiment disappears in
the "f1" generation then reappears in the "f2" generation
e. crossing a red flower with a white flower yields a pink flower

E. Crossing a red flower with a white flower yields a pink flower

The hypothesis of blending inheritance states that the traits received by an organism resulting from sexual reproduction are intermediate between the traits of its parents. In this case, one parent was red and the other was white, and the offspring got the intermediate trait, which was pink.

Telophase colchicine is a chemical obtained from plants that prevents the assembly of spindle fibers

Proteins are the workhorses of the cell, controlling virtually every reaction within as well as providing structure and serving as signals to other cells. proteins are long chains of  amino acids  , and the exact sequence of the amino acids determines the final structure and function of the protein. instructions for that sequence are encoded in  genes  . to make a particular protein, a messenger ribonucleic acid (mrna) copy is made from the gene (in the process called  transcription  ), and the mrna is transported to the  ribosome  . protein synthesis, also called  translation  , begins when the two ribosomal subunits link onto the mrna. this step, called initiation, is followed by elongation, in which successive amino acids are added to the growing chain, brought in by transfer rnas (trnas). in this step, the ribosome reads the  nucleotides  of mrna three by three, in units called  codons  , and matches each to three nucleotides on the trna, called the anticodon. finally, during termination, the ribosome unbinds from the mrna, and the  amino acid  chain goes on to be processed and folded to make the final, functional protein
