1.The trait is recessive. This means both your parents were carries, but did not show the trait. For example, B represents the allele, you're parents would have to both be Bb. This means that they are carriers, and you could have inherited either BB/Bb/bb - you actually inherited bb, which means because its a recessive trait you will show the trait.
2. For your children, it depends on who you have them with. Because you're bb, you will definitely pass on the b allele, so any child you have would be a carrier and could potentially have the trait. If you have a child with someone BB, all your offspring will be Bb (carriers- as the kid gets one allele form each parent). If you have a child with someone who is bb, all your kids would definitely have the trait. However, if you have a child with someone who as Bb, then the four outcomes are Bb Bb bb bb, so there would be a 50% chance of your kid having the trait.
Hope this helps!! :)
Question: Which two statements are true for the leading strand in DNA?
It is synthesized toward the replication fork.
It is synthesized in the 3′ to 5′ direction.
It is synthesized away from the replication fork.
It is synthesized in the 5′ to 3′ direction.
Answer:
The two statements that are true for the leading strand in DNA are "it is synthesized toward the replication fork and it is synthesized in the 5′ to 3′ direction"
Explanation:
Leading strand in DNA is the strand of new DNA being synthesized in the same direction where the replication fork is moving. The movement of replication fork allows the access of template for the new DNA. The DNA synthesis is continuous in the leading strand. It is synthesized in the 5' to 3' as DNA synthesis always takes place in this direction. This is because dNTP ( deoxyribonucleoside triphosphate) provides free 3' OH group where new dNTP can be added by the enzyme DNA polymerase.
Answer:
The safety and effectiveness of vaccines are under constant study. Because vaccines are designed to be given routinely during well-child care visits, they must be extraordinarily safe. Safety testing begins as soon as a new vaccine is contemplated, continues until it is licensed, and is monitored indefinitely after licensure.
Explanation:
Answer: D. at most 10
Explanation:
Using the energy pyramid, the ratio of grassland to primary consumer to secondary consumer is: 100:10:1 respectively.
Thus if the grassland supports 100 cattle (primary consumer), the numbers of humans (secondary consumer) the cattle can feed will be;
100/10 = 10.
Answer: Potassium-40 decays into argon gas over time.
Explanation: Potassium-argon dating is a dating method used to determine the age of sedimentary rocks by comparing the proportion of K-40 to Ar-40 in a sample of rock, and knowing the decay rate of K-40.
Potassium-40 undergoes decay following first order kinetics as given below:
