Code of ethics
A code of ethics outlines principles to guide professionals in conducting business honestly and with integrity. It provides rules and guidelines for ethical behavior, though it may not solve every dilemma. A compliance-based code relies on clear rules and consequences, while a value-based code requires greater self-regulation. Well-known professions like doctors, lawyers and engineers often have their own codes addressing topics like integrity, objectivity, confidentiality and competency. Implementing a code involves distributing it widely, specifying management's role, and establishing accountability measures.

accept the invitation. [10 marks ] CASE 2 Engineer A, who is employed by a forensic
engineering firm, is called upon to serve as an expert witness in a lawsuit about the quality of
services provided by a manufacturer. Engineer B has the position of engineering manager at this
time. Engineer A testified at trial, based on his extensive background in safety engineering, that
the manufacturing company's safety policies were insufficient and likely led to the injuries
sustained by certain workers. Engineer B, several months later, made comments to the engineers
and others in which he accused Engineer A of acting unprofessionally and unethically, claiming
that Engineer A was biased because he had omitted key details from his testimony and instead
focused on circumstances that benefited his client. Engineer B did not provide any substantive
support for his claim that Engineer A has breached any of his professional duties. If Engineer A
testified as mentioned, is it unethical for Engineer B to comment without evidence that Engineer
A acted unprofessionally and unethically? [10 marks] Please use the ethics code provided on the

The document outlines a code of ethics for engineers, beginning with a preamble stating that engineering impacts public health and safety, so engineers must adhere to high ethical standards of honesty, impartiality, and dedication to public welfare. It then lists the fundamental canons of ethics for engineers, including holding public safety as paramount, performing only in their areas of competence, issuing truthful public statements, and acting as faithful agents to employers/clients. The code further specifies rules of practice for engineers regarding responsibilities to the public, areas of competence, public statements, employer/client obligations, avoiding deception, and professional obligations.
The professional interview questions
This document contains 13 questions that may be asked in a professional interview for engineers regarding the Institution of Engineers Malaysia's (IEM) Regulations on Professional Conduct. The questions cover a range of scenarios that engineers may face, and examine how candidates would respond in a way that demonstrates their understanding of upholding integrity and avoiding conflicts of interest as outlined in the IEM regulations. Some example topics addressed include handling unreliable client information, dealing with valuable confidential discoveries, accepting gifts from clients, prioritizing safety and ethics over schedules, handling corruption, and maintaining impartiality in political matters. Candidates will be asked to discuss analyzing one of two randomly selected questions in their response.
Nspe Codeof Ethics
Engineers must adhere to the highest ethical standards of their profession to protect public health, safety, and welfare. They shall 1) hold paramount public safety, 2) only practice within their areas of competence, and 3) be objective and truthful in statements and reports. Engineers must avoid conflicts of interest, never put their interests before dignity and integrity of the profession, and strive to serve the public interest.
Professionalism and Professional Practices
Characteristics and responsibilities of professional engineers
Professional engineers are expected to possess :
education, knowledge, and skills in an engineering specialty that exceed those of the general public.
willingness to stay abreast of discoveries and technological changes by participation in professional meetings and continuing education.
willingness to advance professional knowledge, ideals, and practice and to share their knowledge with their peers.
a sense of responsibility and service to society and to their employers and clients, and they must act honorably in their dealings with others.
willingness to follow established codes of ethics for their profession and to guard their professional integrity and ideals and those of their profession.
The Ethics Committee of the Engineers’ Council for Professional Development prepared the following statement describing the faith of the engineer:
I AM AN ENGINEER. In my profession I take deep pride, but without vainglory; to it I owe solemn obligations that I am eager to fulfill.
As an Engineer, I will participate in none but honest enterprise. To him that has engaged my services, as employer or client, I will give the utmost of performance and fidelity.
When needed, my skill and knowledge shall be given without reservation for the public good. From special capacity springs the obligation to use it well in the service to humanity; and I accept the challenge that this implies.
Jealous of the high repute of my calling, I will strive to protect the interests and the good name of any engineer that I know to be deserving; but I will not shrink, should duty dictate, from disclosing the truth regarding anyone that, by unscrupulous act, has shown himself unworthy of the Profession.
Ideals and obligations of professional engineers
Since the Age of Stone, human progress has been conditioned by the genius of my professional forebears. By them have been rendered usable to mankind Nature’s vast resources of material and energy. By them have been vitalized and turned to practical account the principles of science and the revelations of technology. Except for this heritage of accumulated experience, my efforts would be feeble. I dedicate myself to the dissemination of engineering knowledge, and especially to the instruction of younger members of my profession in all its arts and traditions.
To my fellows I pledge, in the same full measure I ask of them, integrity and fair dealing, tolerance and respect, and devotion to the standards and the dignity of our profession; with the consciousness, always, that our special expertness carries with it the obligation to serve humanity with complete sincerity.
Example Ethics Case Solutions USE OF ALLEGED HAZARDOUS MAT.docx
Example Ethics Case
Solution
s
USE OF ALLEGED HAZARDOUS MATERIAL
IN A PROCESSING FACILITY
Case 11
Facts:
Engineer A is a graduate engineer in a company’s manufacturing facility that
uses toxic chemicals in its processing operations. Engineer A’s job has nothing to
do with the use and control of these materials.
A chemical called "MegaX" is used at the site. Recent stories in the news have
reported alleged immediate and long-term human genetic hazards from
inhalation of or other contact with MegaX. The news items are based on findings
from laboratory experiments, which were done on mice, by a graduate student at
a well-respected university’s physiology department. Other scientists have
neither confirmed nor refuted the experimental findings. Federal and local
governments have not made official pronouncements on the subject.
Several colleagues outside of the company have approached Engineer A on the
subject and ask Engineer A to "do something" to eliminate the use of MegaX at
the processing facility. Engineer A mentions this concern to her manager who
tells Engineer A, "Don't worry, we have an Industrial Safety Specialist who
handles that."
Two months elapse and MegaX is still used in the factory. The controversy in the
press continues, but since there is no further scientific evidence pro or con in the
matter, the issues remain unresolved. The use of the chemical in the processing
facility has increased and now more workers are exposed daily to the substance
than was the case two months ago.
Question:
Does Engineer A have an obligation to take further action under the facts and
circumstances?
References:
Section II.1. - Code of Ethics: Engineers shall hold paramount the safety, health
and welfare of the public.
Section II.1.a. - Code of Ethics: If engineers’ judgment is overruled under
circumstances that endanger life or property, they shall notify their employer or
client and such other authority as may be appropriate.
Section II.2. - Code of Ethics: Engineers shall perform services only in the areas
of their competence.
Discussion:
The present case presents one of the most fundamental ethical issues that
engineers sometimes face in their professional careers – how far is an engineer
ethically required to go in order to comply with NSPE Code? This question
involves a variety of competing concerns and interests relating to the engineers

Complementary Bidding in Construction Projects
SITUATION:
Several paving contractors in two southern states participated in an anticompetitive scheme known as complementary bidding or bid rigging. Prospective competitors on a particular paving contract would select a “winning” bidder amongst themselves. The designated contractor would submit its bid for the project, while the other contractors would knowingly submit bids having a higher dollar amount or containing terms the contractors knew would be unacceptable to the state entity letting the contract. The scheme would thus create the illusion of a competitive bidding process while ensuring that a particular paving contractor ultimately received the contract award.

Professionalism and Professional Practices
Characteristics and responsibilities of professional engineers
Professional engineers are expected to possess :
education, knowledge, and skills in an engineering specialty that exceed those of the general public.
willingness to stay abreast of discoveries and technological changes by participation in professional meetings and continuing education.
willingness to advance professional knowledge, ideals, and practice and to share their knowledge with their peers.
a sense of responsibility and service to society and to their employers and clients, and they must act honorably in their dealings with others.
willingness to follow established codes of ethics for their profession and to guard their professional integrity and ideals and those of their profession.
The Ethics Committee of the Engineers’ Council for Professional Development prepared the following statement describing the faith of the engineer:
I AM AN ENGINEER. In my profession I take deep pride, but without vainglory; to it I owe solemn obligations that I am eager to fulfill.
As an Engineer, I will participate in none but honest enterprise. To him that has engaged my services, as employer or client, I will give the utmost of performance and fidelity.
When needed, my skill and knowledge shall be given without reservation for the public good. From special capacity springs the obligation to use it well in the service to humanity; and I accept the challenge that this implies.
Jealous of the high repute of my calling, I will strive to protect the interests and the good name of any engineer that I know to be deserving; but I will not shrink, should duty dictate, from disclosing the truth regarding anyone that, by unscrupulous act, has shown himself unworthy of the Profession.
Ideals and obligations of professional engineers
Since the Age of Stone, human progress has been conditioned by the genius of my professional forebears. By them have been rendered usable to mankind Nature’s vast resources of material and energy. By them have been vitalized and turned to practical account the principles of science and the revelations of technology. Except for this heritage of accumulated experience, my efforts would be feeble. I dedicate myself to the dissemination of engineering knowledge, and especially to the instruction of younger members of my profession in all its arts and traditions.
To my fellows I pledge, in the same full measure I ask of them, integrity and fair dealing, tolerance and respect, and devotion to the standards and the dignity of our profession; with the consciousness, always, that our special expertness carries with it the obligation to serve humanity with complete sincerity.
Example Ethics Case Solutions USE OF ALLEGED HAZARDOUS MAT.docx
Example Ethics Case
Solution
s
USE OF ALLEGED HAZARDOUS MATERIAL
IN A PROCESSING FACILITY
Case 11
Facts:
Engineer A is a graduate engineer in a company’s manufacturing facility that
uses toxic chemicals in its processing operations. Engineer A’s job has nothing to
do with the use and control of these materials.
A chemical called "MegaX" is used at the site. Recent stories in the news have
reported alleged immediate and long-term human genetic hazards from
inhalation of or other contact with MegaX. The news items are based on findings
from laboratory experiments, which were done on mice, by a graduate student at
a well-respected university’s physiology department. Other scientists have
neither confirmed nor refuted the experimental findings. Federal and local
governments have not made official pronouncements on the subject.
Several colleagues outside of the company have approached Engineer A on the
subject and ask Engineer A to "do something" to eliminate the use of MegaX at
the processing facility. Engineer A mentions this concern to her manager who
tells Engineer A, "Don't worry, we have an Industrial Safety Specialist who
handles that."
Two months elapse and MegaX is still used in the factory. The controversy in the
press continues, but since there is no further scientific evidence pro or con in the
matter, the issues remain unresolved. The use of the chemical in the processing
facility has increased and now more workers are exposed daily to the substance
than was the case two months ago.
Question:
Does Engineer A have an obligation to take further action under the facts and
circumstances?
References:
Section II.1. - Code of Ethics: Engineers shall hold paramount the safety, health
and welfare of the public.
Section II.1.a. - Code of Ethics: If engineers’ judgment is overruled under
circumstances that endanger life or property, they shall notify their employer or
client and such other authority as may be appropriate.
Section II.2. - Code of Ethics: Engineers shall perform services only in the areas
of their competence.
Discussion:
The present case presents one of the most fundamental ethical issues that
engineers sometimes face in their professional careers – how far is an engineer
ethically required to go in order to comply with NSPE Code? This question
involves a variety of competing concerns and interests relating to the engineers
responsibilities to the public health and safety and the engineers obligations to
his or her employer or clients.

Which type of protein does DNA wrap around so that it can be package.pdf
Which type of protein does DNA wrap around so that it can be packaged in a cell?
1) spliceosome proteins
2)histones
3)ribosomal proteins
4)DNA polymerase
5)topoisomerase
Solution
Each chromosome consists of one continuous thread-like molecule of DNA coiled tightly around
proteins, and contains a portion of the 6,400,000,000 basepairs (DNA building blocks) that make
up your DNA.
The double helix of DNA is highly negatively charged due to all the negatively charged
phosphates in the backbone. All that negative charge must be counterbalanced by a positive
charge, and the cell makes proteins called histones that bind DNA and aid in DNA\'s packaging.
Histones are positively charged proteins that wrap up DNA through interactions between their
positive charges and the negative charges of DNA. Double-stranded DNA loops around 8
histones twice, forming the nucleosome, which is the building block of chromatin packaging.
Nucleosomes stack up against one another in organized arrays with multiple levels of packing.
The first level of packing is thought to produce a fiber about 30 nanometers (nm) wide. These 30
nm fibers then form a series of loops, which fold back on themselves for additional compacting.
The multiple levels of packing that exist within eukaryotic chromosomes not only permit a large
amount of DNA to occupy a very small space, but they also serve several functional roles..
Why is the death of Socrates important How did it underscore or und.pdf
Why is the death of Socrates important? How did it underscore or undermine his theories about
morality and virtue?
Solution
The trial and death sentence Socrates is a crucial milestone in the history of philosophy.
Socrates exemplifies the person who lives in a manner consistent with their beliefs, regardless of
the consequences, in order to defend their convictions, represents an idealistic character who
would not mind dying so as not to give in to his principles.
This event is an icon of virtue, and quecon his death and how he endured, philosophical thought
going to focus on nature, to think of human beings, far from silence their ideas, they harnessed
for centuries and gave a titanic epic sieve.
And philosophy was still something ethereal, now is something relevant for any human being,
the debate about good and evil would not only thinkers but an ethical obligation to anyone, and
also a matter of public interest..

What factors affect the degree of membrane fluidity Explain in deta.pdf
What factors affect the degree of membrane fluidity? Explain in detail the Fluid Mosaic Model.
Solution
Degree of membrane fluidity is affected by many factors as follows:
Fluid Mosaic model describes the bilayer structure of plasma membrane having various
phospholipids, cholestrols, carbohydrate, and membrane proteins embedded into it. main
composition of the plasma layer is Phospholipid Bilayer Hydrophobic ends of the lipid bilayer
form the skeleton of the membrane whereas hydrophilic ends form hydrogen bonds with other
molecules like water on both sides of the membrane. Middle part of membrane is hydrophobic in
nature.
Other than lipids, proteins and carbohydrate are other main constituents of the membrane.
Proteins are folded and embedded into the membrane. Carbohydrates are found at the outer part
of membrane and generally are found attached to proteins or lipids..

both attends Harvard and is a democrat isabout 7%. (Harvard=H,Decomcratic=D)
a.What percentage ofpresidents do NOT attend Harvard NOR affiliate with thedemocratic party?
b.Are H and Dmutually exclusive events? Why or why not?
c. Are the two events, H and D, independent? Explain, using probabilities.
d.If we knowa president is affiliated with the Democraticparty, what is the probability that they
attended Harvard?
Solution
a)
P(H U D)\' = 1 - P(H U D) = 1 - [P(H) + P(D) - P(H n D)]
= 1 - (0.18+0.36-0.07)
= 0.53 [answer]
*********************
b)
As
P(H n D) =/= 0
but rather is 0.07, then they are no mutually exclusive. [NO]
*********************
c)
If they are independent,
P(H) = P(H|D)
As
P(H|D) = P(H n D)/P(D) = 0.07/0.36 = 0.194444444
P(H) = 0.18
As they are not equal (although close), they are not independent.

d)
P(H|D) = P(H|D) = P(H n D)/P(D) = 0.07/0.36 = 0.194444444 [ANSWER].
The pentose phosphate cycle has an oxidative and a nonoxidative sect.pdf
The pentose phosphate cycle has an oxidative and a nonoxidative section and these are presented
as both playing important metabolic roles, rather than a coupled role with a single function. How
are the metabolic roles of these two parts of the pathway different from each other? Explain in
terms of biochemistry
Solution
Answer= Function of oxidative and non-oxidative phases of pentose phosphate pathway
Oxidative phase= produces NADPH = it serves as a source of electrons for the reduction of
molecules during biosynthesis
Nonoxidative phase=1] synthesizes 3 & 4 carbon sugars for various purposes
2] The 4 carbon sugar erythrose 4 phosphate is used to synthesize aromatic amino acids &
vitamin B6
3] The pentose ribose 5-phosphate is a major component of nucleic acids, and ribulose 1,5-
bisphosphate is the primary CO2 acceptor in photosynthesis.
4] Intermediates in the pentose phosphate pathway may be used to produce ATP.
5] Glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate from the pathway can enter three-carbon stage of the glycolytic
pathway and be converted to ATP and pyruvate..
Standpoint theory suggests that our understanding of gender-based co.pdf
Standpoint theory suggests that our understanding of gender-based communications acts is
shaped by our standpoint in life. How does a persons standpoint as a member of one sex (male or
female) shape your experiances and interactions with other? Explain how other standpoints,
besides sex and gender, help you to understand your position or location within our culture.
Solution
Standpoint theory\'s most predominant abstraction is that an independent \'s own prospect are
shaped byher or his political and social experiences. Standpoints are multifaceted rather than
transitive: while Hispanic women may predominantly share some prospect, particularly with
consider to ethnicity or sex, they are not explain simply by their involvement in these group. The
combination of a person\'s many professional dimensions form a standpoint—a point of

Que don 20 (1 point) C D You discover a heritable trait that is found.pdf
Que don 20 (1 point) C D You discover a heritable trait that is found in species A and B but not
in species E or F which of the folowing statements about the evolution of this trait is MOST
likely to be true? The trait is an example of homologous evolution EN The ancestor of E and F
had the trait
Solution
Convergent evolution favours the selection of same structures in different ancestors.
The heritable trait seen in species A or B is same as that of E or F but would be in some different
form due to the convergent evolution.
The convergent evolution arises independently in distantly related species..
Parthenogenesis has been documented in most vertebrate Classes (e.g. .pdf
Parthenogenesis has been documented in most vertebrate Classes (e.g. birds, fish) but never in
mammals. Genomic imprinting provides one explanation for this observation. Why?
Solution
Parthrnogenesis is the process of reproduction from ovum without fertilization.
It has been documented in most vertebrates but never in mammals because of polyploidy and
hybridisation. On the cellular level, the distinction between parthenogens and sexuals is that,
meiosis is accompanied by fusion of a male and female gamete. In parthenogenesis, meiosis is
changed so that only one unique set of chromosomes is transferred in a non-random fashion.
Germ cell doesn’t have centrioles (they’re lost throughout gametogenesis), the lack of centrioles
is not a restrict to the egg cellular. The genomic imprinting, i.e. that sure genes will no longer
activate unless paternal genes are lacking. That is an trouble with mammals and no longer with
the parthenogenic vertebrates because mammals have an overabundance of a protein referred to
as mos. when absent, automixis occurs (it normally blocks cleavage formation inside the oocyte,
therefore, the oocyte can’t undergo automixis)..

December 3, 1987, Decided December 15, 1987, Filed
PRIOR HISTORY: [**1] Appeal from Hennepin County, District Court, Hon. Ann
Montgomery, Judge.
DISPOSITION: Affirmed. CASE SUMMARY:
PROCEDURAL POSTURE: Appellant homeowners sought review of the decision from the
Hennepin County, District Court (Minnesota), which granted summary judgment in favor of
respondents, savings association and payment plan, on the homeowners\' claim of tortious
interference with contract.
OVERVIEW: The homeowners entered into a conditional sales contract to purchase a mobile
home. Subsequently the contract was assigned to the savings associationThe homeowners argued
that thetrial court erred in determining, as a matter of law, that their claims of wrongful
interference with contracts were invalid. The court determined that the trial court had correctly
determined that a contract between the homeowners and a subsequent buyer could not arise
absent performance of a condition precedent, which was the approval of the subsequent buyer\'s
assumption of the loan. Even if this court were to determine that valid contracts existed between
the homeowners and prospective buyers, the issue of justification would have to be addressed
and the savings association and payment plan would have prevailed. Credit checks and equity
interests were commercially reasonable assurances and could not be met by the prospective
buyers. The savings association and payment plan were within their right to refuse the
assignment.
OUTCOME: The court affirmed the decision from the trial court.
CORE TERMS: mobile home, materially, prospective buyer, breach of contract, assignee,
buyer\'s, purchase agreement, assignor, summary judgment, down payment, substantial interest,
conditional, assurances, assigned, inducing, delegate, condition precedent, contractual,
contingent, delegation, tortious interference, credit check, right to refuse, wrongful interference,

Listed below are the major steps in protein synthesis and some event.pdf
Listed below are the major steps in protein synthesis and some events that do not occur during
protein synthesis. From the list select those events that do occur in protein synthesis and place
the letters of these steps in the correct chronological order.
A) DNA attaches to ribosomes
B) Amino acids bond to mRNA
C) mRNA processed (introns removed)
D) amino acids carried by tRNA joined together
E) mRNA leaves nucleus
F) DNA replicates itself
G) mRNA replicates itself
H) mRNA attaches to ribosomes
I) mRNA produced using DNA as template
J) tRNA and mRNA become part of finished protein
K) tRNA anticodons bond to mRNA codons
Solution
Translation is the process where synthesis of appropriate amino acid and polypeptide chain takes
place taking mRNA synthesized from the target DNA sequence as a reference. Translation takes
place in the cytoplasm over the ribosomes of rough endoplasmic reticulum by a comprehensive
action of mRNA, tRNA and other accessory ingredients by utilization of energy in the form of
ATP.
The sequential process of translation can be found as below:
F) DNA replicates itself
I) mRNA produced using DNA as template
G) mRNA replicates itself
E) mRNA leaves nucleus
C) mRNA processed (introns removed)
H) mRNA attaches to ribosomes
D) amino acids carried by tRNA joined together
K) tRNA anticodons bond to mRNA codons
B) Amino acids bond to mRNA
From the sequence above, it can be seen that the point A, i.e. DNA binds to ribosomes, is not
included. This is because DNA does not bind directly to the ribosomes during any part of
translation. Conversly, DNA is transcribed into mRNA which is translated into amino acid
polypeptide on the ribosomes.
Also, the point J) tRNA and mRNA become part of finished protein, is not included because
tRNA and mRNA are never the part of finished protein. The protein is translated from the
mRNA sequence by utilizing tRNA function..

Solution
1).
Receptors are the protienious structures that act as “signal transducing molecules.” There are
three kinds of membrane receptors namely, ligand gated receptors, G-protein coupled receptors
and kinase linked receptors.
Primary messengers receive the stimulus information from the external environment and passes
into the cell. If the primary messenger cannot pass through the cell membrane, receptors use
second messenger for communication between the receptor and intracellular environment.
Secondary messengers relay the signal information from the receptor-ligand complex, to the
interior of the cell.
G-protein coupled receptors are also known as heptahelical (seven transmembrane-spanning)
receptors. They are connected to the intracellular system through G-protein molecules that
activate secondary messengers.
The three important secondary messengers are cAMP (cyclic adenosine monophosphate), IP3
(ionositol 1,4,5-triphosphate), and DAG (diacyl glycerol).
Adenylate cyclase is an enzyme that converts ATP (adenosine tri phosphate) into cAMP. cAMP
is one of the important secondary messengers of G-protein receptors. Phopholipase C is an
enzyme that hydrolyses phosphatidylinositol bisphosphate (PIP2) into two second messengers
namely, ionositol 1,4,5-triphosphate (IP3) and diacylglycerol (DAG).
Adenylate cyclase is an enzyme that converts ATP (adenosine tri phosphate) into cAMP. cAMP
is one of the important secondary messengers of G-protein receptors. Phospholipase C is an
enzyme that hydrolyzes phosphatidylinositol bisphosphate (PIP2) into two-second messengers
namely, inositol 1,4,5-triphosphate (IP3) and diacylglycerol (DAG).
IP3 increases the calcium release from endoplasmic reticulum by acting through IP3 receptors.
DAG diffuses through the plasma membrane and activates protein kinase C. PKC is present in
many isoforms, which is activated by raised intracellular calcium levels .
Calcium activates calmodulin protein by allosteric binding and thus activates calcium-
calmodulin dependent kinases. The calcium-calmodulin complex activates the myosin light chain
kinases by phosphorylation, which causes muscle contraction.
In contrast, the cAMP acts through Gs type of GPCRs, IP3 acts through Gq type of GPCRs. The
secondary effector in cAMP pathway is PKA (protein kinase A), the secondary effector in IP3
and Calcium-mediated pathways is PKC and calmodulin (calcium directly acts on calmodulin)..
In a Pp heterozygous organisms, one of the chromosomes carrying the .pdf
In a Pp heterozygous organisms, one of the chromosomes carrying the P locus is moving towards
the pole at anaphase I of meiosis. In the absense of crossing overs, the P locus on this
chromosome is represented by _____ dsDNA molecules with genotype ______. (name every
complete allelic copy) (2, either PP or pp)
I have included the answers in the parenthesis after the question. Please explain how to get the
answers in details please :)
Solution
The organism is Pp. It will enter Meiosis I after completion of interphase. So, the genome will be
‘4n’, when entering Meiosis I, i.e. “PPpp”.
Crossing over will result in formation of “PpPp”. But there is no crossing- over in Prophase I.
So, “PPpp” will go into metaphase I and subsequently into Anaphase I.
At anaphase I, \'PP\' will go towards one end and \'pp\' will go towards another end.
So, genotypes of the two dsDNA molecules should be either \'PP\' or \'pp\'. Both will be
homozygous..
