In diploid organisms, loss of heterozygosity (LOH), a type of genetic anomaly, refers to the loss of one copy of a complete gene and the surrounding chromosomal area.

  • One copy of the missing gene is still there since diploid cells contain two copies of each of their genes, one from each parent.
  • In diploid organisms, loss of heterozygosity (LOH), a type of genetic anomaly, refers to the loss of one copy of a complete gene and the surrounding chromosomal area. One copy of the missing gene is still there since diploid cells contain two copies of each of their genes, one from each parent.

However, there is no longer any heterozygosity, which refers to minute variations in the gene versions acquired from each parent.

Several biology students are counting kernels in an ear of corn. They count a total of 420 kernels: 242 purple wrinkled, 84 purp
s2008m [1.1K]
The answer is C) 9:3:3:1

This looks like a dihybrid cross where the expected phenotypic ratio is 9:3:3:1. However, in nature, the numbers cannot be absolut. Let's check it out:
242 purple wrinkled
84 purple smooth
70 yellow wrinkled
24 yellow smooth

Divide all by the smallest number:
242 purple wrinkled / 24
84 purple smooth / 24
70 yellow wrinkled / 24
24 yellow smooth / 24

We have 
10.1 purple wrinkled which is near to 9
3.5 purple smooth which is near to 3
2.9 yellow wrinkled which is near to 3
1 yellow smooth

The millions of structures in the kidneys that filter toxins out of urine are called:
horsena [70]

Nephrons

Nephrons are the basic structural and functional units of the kidneys.  Each of the kidneys contains over a million nephrons. Nephrons function by filtering blood and then removing needed substances from the filtrate before eliminating the remaining fluid that contains water, metabolic waste, and toxins.as urine. This process occurs through three stages which are ultrafiltration, selective reabsorption and osmoregulation.

1. What are three things that water variability affects for us?
IRINA_888 [86]
1. Drought period - in time periods where there is more precipitation there is more water availability, and when there's not there isn't.
Floods - when there are floods there is much more water available.
Population density - in places with more population there is a greater need for water supply, while in places where there is lesser people, the water supply can be smaller.
2. The land, air, and water are heated each day by the sunlight. The heat produced by the sun that hits the earth as the earth rotates is then part kept by the atmosphere that doesn't permeate all of that heating energy.
3. By evaporation. As the sun heats the ocean, there is evaporation. As the ocean moves around with its tides there is also loss of water to the air. Also by the waves and winds there is water that's lost to the air.
4. Part of that vapour will be reabsorbed by the ocean because it cools and precipitates into the ocean. Other part of it is taken with the wind to land or to upper spheres of the atmosphere.
 5. Part is reabsorbed but other part isn't. The other part is taken by the wind. As a gradient, there is less water in the air then in the ocean, keeping it above the ocean.
6. There is more water in the oceans then on the land. Water remains in the air on average about 9-10 days.
7. --------
8. An average American family uses about 300 gallons of water.
9. About 22%.
10. About 27%.
