incomplete dominance is seen in snapdragon. The allele that causes red flowers (F) is not completely dominant over the allele th

at causes white flowers (f). when a plant is heterozygous for the trait of flower color (Ff), pink flowers result. Cross two pink snapdragons, and provide the genotypic and phenotypic of all the offspring

Answer:

1 FF (red) : 2 Ff (pink) : 1 ff (white)

Explanation:

The possible genotypes and phenotypes for flower color in snapdragons are:

FF = red flowers

Ff = Pink flowers

ff = white flowers

The cross between two pink snapdragons can be written as follows:

<h2>Ff x Ff</h2><h2></h2>

Each heterozygous snapdragon will produce two types of gametes: <em>F</em> and <em>f</em>. When they cross, a gamete from one parent joins (randomly) the gamete of the other parent, creating an individual from the progeny.

<u>Therefore, the offspring resulting from this cross will be:</u>

1 FF (red) : 2 Ff (pink) : 1 ff (white).

Under what conditions would a climate be classified as arid
Norma-Jean [14]
<span>In order for a climate to be considered "arid", a region/land must have scare rain that does not support the growth of vegetation. It is thought to be an areas that has minimal water sources that cannot produce greenery or other foliage. Arid can be considered extremely dry which will impact the surrounding land's ability to support growing life including plants and other animals.</span>

Choose the true statement(s) about mutations. To be marked correct, you'll need to select all true statements, as there may be m
Kazeer [188]

Answer

All four options ( A,B,C,D ) are true about mutations.

Explanation:

A-  <u>Mutation can provide an evolutionary benefits</u>

As mutation helps in creating DNA  sequence ,new allele(variant of gene) for a specific gene , thus mutations is known to be the first step of evolution.

B-<u> Mutation leads to genetic and phenotypic variation within the species. </u>

In mutation, genetic  variation (difference between individual/population) takes place as new alleles are created ,random matings ,fertilization and during meiosis , recombination of homologous chromosomes. One of the type of mutation called gene mutation give rise to genetic variations.

Its an exceptional case of phenotypic variations ,as mostly there is no effect of mutation on phenotypic variation. Very few mutations lead to phenotype variation and in case mutation takes place in phenotype variation ,making the organism well suited to the environment, the a rapid change  in the characterstics of the individual species is seen.

C- <u>In humans, the somatic cell mutation are not passed in offsprings. </u>

Somatic cells are present in all over the body except in the cells that give rise to gametes( ie. egg and sperm cells) and produces offsprings . Thus somatic cells are absent in gametic cells ,therefore mutation cannot be passed to human's offsprings or children.

D- <u>Evolution rates are faster in bacteria than in humans because most mutations in human cells are silent.  </u>

Due to their fast  growth ,bacteria evolve quickly and share genes with each other and even between the species ,also the mutation that are helpful spread faster in bacteria.  

In humans, the silent mutation in human cells cause many genetic disorders like Laron dwarfism.  About 99.8% genes are silent mutation.

Under which conditions do most types of cells function at optimal levels
Scrat [10]

Explanation:

Cells maintain a constant internal environment; this process called homeostasis, ensures that cells obtain an optimal environment in which they can best function.

The endocrine system involves chemical signalling via the secretion of molecules called hormones into extracellular fluid. They bind to chemical receptors in order to cause specific changes in target cells, these lead to changes in the body's internal environment called homeostasis.

It includes the thyroid, parathyroid, pituitary, pineal and adrenal glands along with other regions. The bone, adipose tissue, heart, pancreas and liver are a few of the regions of the body which show endocrine function. The brain, or control center functions to receive and process the information from the receptor. Effectors receive the control center's command and illicits a response in the form of a feedback loop, that may oppose or enhance the stimulus.

Further Explanation:

During homeostasis the body maintains a constant internal balance in pH, temperature, blood pressure etc. Cells in a multicellular organism become specialized for particular tasks and communicate with one another in order to maintain homeostasis. Within the human body these are known as hormone cascades, where several complex steps occur- the tissues signal to one another with the use of hormones released by the endocrine system. The regulation (increase and decrease) of these secretions is achieved by negative feedback loops, where the release of certain substances during a cascade in turn halts the secretion of hormones at earlier stages.

For example, cells within the human body function at an optimal temperature between 97°F (36.1°C)  and 99°F (37.2°C). This is due to the optimal temperature requirement of the enzymes within the human body, which requires this specific range to obtain activation energy.
