A trisomy is a chromosomal condition characterized by an additional chromosome. A person with a trisomy has 47 chromosomes instead of 46.

Trisomy means the presence of an extra chromosome in some or all of the body's cells. This results in a total of three copies of that chromosome instead of the normal two copies. For example, Down syndrome (trisomy 21) is caused by having three copies of chromosome 21 instead of the usual two copies.

This genetic condition is the result of a genetic mutation where your cells don't divide as they should. You can't prevent this abnormality from happening during cell division.

Which of the following organelles assembles proteins? ribosomes Golgi apparatus nuclear envelope or endoplasmic reticulum
Artist 52 [7]

The right answer is Ribosomes

The ribosome is a complex composed of RNA and ribosomal proteins, associated with a membrane (in the granular endoplasmic reticulum) or free in the cytoplasm. Common to all cells (prokaryotes and eukaryotes), the ribosome (and especially its composition) varies according to the organisms, even if it is always composed of two distinct subunits.

The ribosome is a huge ribonucleoprotein complex that allows the translation of mRNAs into proteins.

eimsori [14]

Answer:

Height is affected by multiple pairs of genes on different chromosomes.

Explanation:  

The quantitative traits are those whose inheritance pattern is the result of the action of multiple genes that act together with the environment. The distribution of quantitative traits in the population follows a bell-shaped curve, which is referred to as normal distribution or Gaussian distribution. These traits are 'quantitative' because they vary among individuals in the population to produce a continuous range of phenotypic values. Examples of quantitative traits include, among others, metabolic rate, height, and weight.
