Answer:

<u>Origin:</u> In biology, origin can be described as the location where the muscle joins a stationary bone and as a result, no movement occurs.

<u>Insertion: </u>In anatomy, insertion can be described as the point of attachment which allows movement of a bone to occur. It moves when the muscles contract.

Economists often use an economic model that reflects the total amount of goods and services required at all possible price level
pshichka [43]
The answer is letter D.
<span>
Economists often use the aggregate supply and demand model to reflect the total amount of goods and services required at all possible price levels during a specific period. It reflects the overall price of foods and services in an economy for a given period and is often illustrated with the supply-demand curve. This shows the relationship between price levels and quantity of output that a particular firm is willing to provide to the general public.</span>

You breed a plant that has purple flowers with a plant that has orange flowers and the resulting offspring has purple and orange
gayaneshka [121]

Answer:

Incomplete dominance

Explanation:

Incomplete dominance is the expression of phenotype of two paired alleles (i.e dominant and recessive allele) all together.

Usually when two alleles get paired, the characteristics of the dominant allele is expressed while the characteristics associated with recessive alleles are expressed only when the two recessive allele get paired.

Here in this case the characteristics of both type of allele are expressed i.e. both orange and purple strips appear in the offspring. Hence, this case shows the incomplete dominance.

Human ABO blood type is controlled by the I locus and has three possible alleles. The alleles which code for type A blood (IA) a
Oxana [17]

Answer:

1/8 (12.5 %)

Explanation:

Cross: IAi X  IAIB

F1: 1/4 IAIA 1/4 IAIB 1/4 IAi 1/4 IBi

Phenotypes:

- IAIA and IAi >> type A blood

- IBi >> type B blood

- IAIB >> type AB blood

Phenotypic frequency type A blood: 1/2  (i.e., 1/4 IAIA +  1/4 IAi) >>

Probability to have 3 offspring with type A blood: 1/2 x 1/2 x 1/2 = 1/8

The human ABO blood group is a system consisting of there different alleles: A, B, and O. This system is used in genetics as an example of codominance because both A and B alleles are expressed in heterozygous individuals (i.e., IAIB), whereas only the allele A is expressed in individuals that have A and O alleles (since O allele is recessive to the A and B alleles).
