A black guinea pig crossed with a guinea pig with albinism produced 12 black offspring When the albino was crossed with a second

black animal, six blacks and six albinos were obtained. What is the best explanation for this genetic situation? (A) Albinism is a recessive trait; black is a dominant trait. (B) Albinism is a dominant trait; black is incompletely dominant. (C) Albinism and black are codominant. (D) Albinism is a recessive trait; black is codominant.

The best explanation for the creation of six blacks as well as six albinos from the given cross is that (A) Albinism is a recessive trait; black is a dominant trait.

Albinism is a recessive trait. It is expressed only in an individual's genotype contains a pair of the recessive allele 'a', that is responsible for causing albinism.

Black skin color in guinea pig is a dominant trait which does not allows the recessive trait to be expressed.

Thus, guinea pigs having the genotype 'aa' will exhibit albinism while those having the dominant allele for black color will have black skin color.

How does a selectively permeable membrane affect diffusion?
Mrrafil [7]

Answer:

- Only some molecules move from a higher concentration to a lower concentration.

Explanation:

Selective permeability of the membrane means that membrane regulates which molecules (ions, substances) and how much of them can pass through it. Permeabilty of the membrane is determinated by its structure (hydrophobic heads and hydrophilic tails, cholesterol), temperature

The simplest form of transport through membrane is diffusion, passive transport of the molecule down its concentration gradient 9from higher to lower concentration). Some molecules can move down their concentration gradients directly, some have to pass through membrane proteins in a process called facilitated diffusion while others require energy and use active transport.

Assume that some members of an aquatic species of motile, photosynthetic protists evolve to become parasitic to fish. They gain
Elodia [21]

Answer:

c.) loss of chloroplasts

Explanation:

Chloroplasts are the double membrane-bound organelles of photosynthetic eukaryotes and serve as the site for photosynthesis. The organisms that can carry out photosynthesis make the organic nutrients and do not depend on other organisms for food.

According to the given information, the photosynthetic protists become parasite in fish and start deriving nutrition from the host. If the protists continue to survive as a parasite to fish, the chloroplasts will be rendered non-significant. The parasitic mode of nutrition does not require chloroplasts and therefore, the protists would lose the organelles over generations.

the organic compound that contains the elements carbon, hydrogen and oxygen and where the ratio of hydrogen to oxygen is 2:1.
erik [133]

Answer:

C_{2}H_{2}O

aka Ethenone

Explanation:

Ethenone is an organic compound made out of the elements Carbon, Hydrogen, and Oxygen. It is an example of a covalent molecule. The Hydrogens are single bonded to the carbon and then the carbons and oxygen are double-bonded to each other. Additionally, because there are 2 Hydrogens and 1 Oxygen the ratio is 2:1, as stated in the question.
