Answer:
Barr bodies are small bodies that are dark staining bodies that show the inactivated X chromosome, these sex chromatin bodies attach to the membrane of the nucleus of interphase cells.
One less of the total number of X-chromosome (n-1) represents the number of Barr bodies.
Then,
The number of Barr bodies with Klinefelter would be:
Klinefelter (47,XXY): (n-1) = (2-1) = 1 Barr body as here two X chromosome present.
Similarly, for
Turner (45,XO): (n-1) = (1-1) = 0 Barr bodies (X chromosome = 1)
Now, as per the question, the bar bodies for karyotypes given
47,XYY: (n-1) = (1-1) = 0 Barr bodies
47,XXX: (n-1) = (3-1) = 2 Barr bodies
48,XXXX: (n-1) = (4-1) = 3 Barr bodies
Answer:
I believe that this is balanced.
Answer Choices:
DNA provides the energy needed for an organism to grow and function
DNA is copied into mRNA, which controls cellular functions
DNA codes for proteins, which allow an organism to grow and function
DNA unzips and each strand codes for a different amino acid
Answer:
DNA codes for proteins, which allow an organism to grow and function
Explanation:
DNA provides the energy needed for an organism to grow and function - this is false. DNA does not provide energy. A molecule called ATP, mostly produced by cellular respiration, provides energy for the cells to grow and function.
DNA is copied into mRNA, which controls cellular functions - this is false. While it is true that DNA is copied into mRNA, mRNA does not directly control cellular functions. Instead, mRNA is translated into proteins.
DNA codes for proteins, which allow an organism to grow and function - <u>this is true, as indicated above, DNA is transcribed to mRNA which is translated into proteins. Proteins carry out essentially all the functions in the cell</u>
DNA unzips and each strand codes for a different amino acid - this is false, DNA is transcribed into mRNA. Each mRNA codon (three bases) codes for a different amino acid
Fossils are physical evidence of preexisting organisms, either plant or animal. ... Fossils of any kind are useful in "reading the rock record," meaning they help us decipher the history of the earth. They can help us determine the geologic age and environment (the paleoenvironment) in which they were deposited.
I believe it is D bcuz there is no more reproducing of that species so it will eventually die out.
