You can show the synapse at the transmitting end to intermediate neuron. Use a cleft in diagram to show it.

From Oct/Nov '05
*Q1b
look at the cycle in your text book, how after citrate, you go directly to a 6C intermediate - now after this, th 6C intermediate changes into a 5C sugar after being decarboxylated and dehydrogenated by NAD - the next step also there is decarboxyyy and dehydrogennaa. also, they have included not only th krebs cycle but the link reaction as well - remeber there is decarboxylation and dehydrogenation in th link reaction so, you'll put in th labels at three sites (attached). dehydrogenation is the removal of the hydrogen which here is done by NAD or FAD - so there are two more sites for dehydrogenation also... hope im clear...

*Q2a- don't know how to do (getting stuck in between) & we get the chi square value as 1.8 and so answers to part d & e doesn't make much sense! :S

so they've described the offsprings and from the appearance of the numbers you should no this 9:3:3:1 ratio is typical of two heterozygous-for-both-alleles type of parent - ive attached th working.. incomplete though

you got a value of 1.8 and in the chi table the values increase as the probability decreases - so - 1.8 lies at a probabilty greater than 0.05 ryt? then once u've established that you say tht the fact that th probability is grater than .05 then, the diffferences between the observed and expected values are insig and only due 2 chance - so the expected ratio of offspring 9:3:3:1 is observed and the assumptions u made (as in th parents being heterozygous) are correct ;)

IF YOU ARE DOING PAPER 4 (which I'll assume you are :p)

Anyways, I hope you see this- poisonedrose!

See the attachments! (I hope it's clear enough)

Explanation: As the question mentions, a cross between two dogs with copper hair tips always produces copper hair tips- meaning it must be homozygous recessive. As only one allele is being expressed.
A cross with two black dogs will produce off springs SOME with red hair tip & copper hair tip (some black off springs too). Meaning both the parents must be heterozygous.


I am sorry if my explanation isn't clear enough! :$

Re-read the question and I am sure you'll get it!

:) you're amazing. Thank you so much.
After reading the question.. 6?7? times, with your explanation, I finally got it.
Time to hit the hay however.
Good luck all of you guys here :)
