In corn, purple kernels (P) are dominant to yellow kernels (p). You have a plant with an unknown genotype that has a phenotype of purple kernels. You perform a testcross and find that all of the offspring are purple.
The layout of the solar system, including the Oort Cloud, on a logarithmic scale. Credit: NASA. In the furthest reaches of the Solar System is the Oort Cloud; a theorized cloud of icy objects that could orbit the Sun to a distance of 100,000 astronomical units, or 1.87 light-years away.
NASA estimates the galaxy at 100,000 light-years across. Since one light year is about 9.5 x 10 12 km, so the diameter of the Milky Way galaxy is about 9.5 x 10 17 km in diameter. The thickness of the galaxy ranges depending on how close you are to the center, but itâs tens of thousands of light-years across.Our galaxy is part of a collection known as the Local Group.ince one light year is about 9.5 x 10 12 km, so the diameter of the Milky Way galaxy is about 9.5 x 10 17 km in diameter.
