When the Bicoid protein is expressed in Drosophila, divisions between cells in the embryo are not yet fully developed. This helps to explain that (B) Bicoid protein diffuses throughout the embryo in a concentration gradient.

Bicoid protein acts as a morphogen. This means it shows its effect when the concentration gradient is high. Also abbreviated as Bcd, the protein helps in establishing the anterior and posterior region of the Drosophila. It also represses the translation of caudal mRNA.

Embryo is the initial stage of a microorganism, right after the fertilization. In vertebrates, this stage does not last much longer because the development of organs begins.

Ostrovityanka [42]
Individuals who are heterozygous for the sickle-cell allele suffer less from the attack of malaria because a small percentage of the red blood cells are sickle-shaped. They are more resistant to malaria than individuals who have two copies of the normal haemoglobin allele. Heterozygous individuals have a better chance of surviving and reproducing in regions where malaria is prevalent since they do not fully contract the disease.

Please help im having trouble with biology
shusha [124]
Okay, to start off, the basic difference between prokaryotic cells and eukaryotic cells is prokaryotic cells are cells without a nucleus, and eukaryotic cells are cells that contain a nucleus.

So based off that information alone, you can answer #1. Cell A does not have a nucleus (big circle shape), while Cell B does. Therefore, Cell A is the prokaryotic cell.

As for #2, prokaryotic cells and eukaryotic cells DO have similarities despite their differences. For instance, they both have some of the same organelles, like the plasma membrane, ribosomes, cytoplasm, and DNA.

Finally for #3, two differences are that #1, prokaryotic cells have nucleoids while eukaryotic cells have a nucleus, and #2, prokaryotes have circular DNA while eukaryotes have linear DNA. 

Your best bet is finding a visual aid in a textbook or online to help you, so you can better identify organelles and eukaryotic/prokaryotic cells. Also, there are some cheesy videos out there on YouTube which I was forced to sit through in Bio class last year such as the Amoeba Sister's youtube channel which could help. Hope this helped!

cluponka [151]
Walter Sutton discovered that chromosomes are the basis of heredity and this explained the segregation of alleles in Mendel's law of segregation. Basically alleles and chromosomes in Mendel's explanation are the same thing.
