Want to know:
n a pathway controlling flower color, a functional copy of gene A is needed to produce enzyme A, which catalyzes the synthesis of red pigment. Without enzyme A, the flower only makes white pigment. A second gene, gene R, encodes a repressor protein that completely inhibits enzyme A. If a plant were to have the genotype Aarr, what color would the flower be? (Assume complete dominance for both genes)The flower would be white because the repressor protein is present and it is inhibiting enzyme AThe flower would be red because enzyme A is present and the repressor gene is brokenThe flower would be white because the genes for enzyme A and the repressor are broken

- As the two parental (template) DNA strands separate at a replication fork, each of the strands is separately copied by a DNA polymerase III (orange), producing two new daughter strands (light blue), each complementary to its respective parental strand. Because the two parental strands are antiparallel, the two new strands (the leading and lagging strands) cannot be synthesized in the same way.Drag each phrase to the appropriate bin depending on whether it describes the synthesis of the leading strand, the synthesis of the lagging strand, or the synthesis of both strands.
