Every time you eat a cookie or candy bar, your blood sugar increases. This triggers an increase in the hormone insulin. Insulin<span> is a hormone made by the pancreas which allows your body to use sugar (glucose) from carbohydrates in the food that you eat, or to store glucose for future use. </span>Insulin<span> helps keeps your blood sugar level from getting too high (hyperglycemia) or too low (hypoglycemia).</span>
The question is incomplete. The complete question is:
Question: A gene for corn has two alleles, one for yellow kernels and one for white kernels. Cross pollination of yellow corn and white corn results in ears of corn that have an approximately even mix of yellow and white kernels. Which term best describes the relationship between the two alleles?
a) Incomplete dominance
b) Genetic recombination
c) Chimerism
d) Codominance
Answer:
d) codominance
Explanation:
Codominance is a pattern of inheritance when none of the alleles of a gene is able to mask the expression of the other allele of the same gene. When the two alleles are present together in a heterozygous genotype, both are expressed and the phenotype of the heterozygote is different from both the pure breeding parents. In the given example, cross-pollination of yellow corn and white corn results in the ears of corn that have an approximately even mix of yellow and white kernels. This means that the heterozygote expresses both the allele for the corn color. Therefore, it represents codominance.
Answer:
The answer is D
Explanation:
Because as the energy travels from one animal to the other the energy decreases. For example a gazelle eats the grass right? And then a lion eats the eats the gazelle. The gazelle got energy from the grass it's body already used some so when it's eaten the lion only gets what energy the gazelle has leftover
Answer:
The endosymbiotic theory
Explanation:
Protists are the multicellular organisms which possess characteristics of both the prokaryotes and eukaryotes.
The protist can derive nutrition by either heterotrophic mode or photoautotrophic mode. This variation could exist within the same genus and same species.
This variation could be explained with the endosymbiotic origin of the organisms as some species could engulf the photosynthetic bacteria whereas some could have engulfed the chemosynthetic bacteria.
This can be observed in the green and red algae which depend on a different mode of nutrition belonging to the same group.
Thus, the endosymbiotic theory is correct.
