Cells that have no mitochondria are unable to convert oxygen into energy, found in the form of adenosine triphosphate (ATP). All multicellular eukaryotic organisms, including plants and animals, have mitochondria in some cells, but prokaryotes and some single-cell eukaryotes do not have mitochondria.
Explanation:
The problem says that the hairless phenotype never breeds true. That means that it's not the result of a homozygous genotype (H₁H₁ or H₂H₂), so it is caused by the heterozygous genotype (H₁H₂).
The <u>expected </u>offspring from the cross between two Mexican hairless would be:
<h3>P
H₁H₂ x
H₁H₂</h3><h3>F1 1/4
H₁H₁, 2/4
H₁H₂ and 1/4
H₂H₂.</h3>
And the <u>expected</u> phenotypic ratio 3:1. However, the observed offspring shows a 2:1 ratio. What's happening?
If the observed phenotypic ratio in the offspring of a monohybrid cross (a single gene with two alleles) is 2:1, we can suspect that one of the genotypes is lethal in homozygosis and therefore does not appear in the progeny (the puppies are born dead).
If we proposed that the H₂ allele is lethal in homozygosis, then:
- The H₁H₁ genotype would cause normal puppies --> 1
- The H₁H₂ genotype would cause hairless puppies --> 2
- The H₂H₂ is lethal and causes the death of puppies --> 0
The phenotypic ratios change to 2:1, as observed in the experiment.
How would low tide most likely negatively affect the abundance of aquatic organisms?
:Low tide exposes aquatic organisms to air for extended periods of time.
Hope my answer helped!
Answer:
Mutations to somatic cells are only present in the type of cell in which the mutation occurred.
Answer:
<em>In biochemistry and pharmacology, receptors are chemical structures, composed of protein, that receive and transduce signals that may be integrated into biological systems</em>
