Use the coarse-focus knob to raise the stage until part of the threads comes into focus. Keep raising the stage slowly until all three threads are out of focus again. Now switch to the high-power objective. The threads are at different depths of view. To see each thread’s color, adjust the fine-focus knob. Top thread color: Middle thread color: Bottom thread color:

Suppose a particular species of tulip plant has three alleles for the gene that codes for flower color. the cr allele produces red tulips, the cp allele produces purple tulips, and the cw allele produces white tulips. cr is dominant over cp and cw, and cp is dominant over cw. for each of the following crosses, determine the expected ratio of offspring for each flower color. cr cp x cp cw cr cw x cp cw 1 red: 1 purple : 0 white, 1 red: 2 purple: 1 white, 2 red: 1 purple 1 white, 1 red: 3 purple : 0 white, 2 red: 0 purple : 2 white, 2 red: 2 purple : 0 white
