(Select all that apply.)

A cell entering mitosis has completed DNA replication and has 46 chromosomes (human somatic cell). At metaphase, all chromosomes are aligned at the metaphase plate with sister chromatids attached at the centromere. However, the M checkpoint detects that one chromosome’s kinetochore is not properly attached to spindle fibers from both poles. Meanwhile, a Rb protein mutation allows the cell to bypass the G1 checkpoint. What is the most likely outcome?

A scientist is studying a plant that is heterozygous for flower color (Pp, where purple is dominant) and displays incomplete dominance for flower shape (RR=round, rr=pointed, Rr=oval). The genotype is PpRr. If this plant is crossed with a plant that is ppRr, and environmental factors cause 50% of all purple flowers to appear lighter due to temperature stress, what proportion of offspring would display both the recessive color phenotype AND the intermediate shape phenotype under these conditions?
