Answer: 25% of the heterozygous cross are short, and the offspring of a homozygous dominant and homozygous recessive pea plant will always display the dominant trait (phenotype), because they are heterozygous.
Explanation:
In this explanation, I'm assuming that the allele "T" for tall plants is dominant to the allele "t" for short plants, like in Gregor Mendel's pea plant experiment.
A homozygous tall pea plant will have the genotype "TT" and a homozygous short plant will have the genotype "tt" because homozygous means that both alleles are identical. Since "T" is dominant over "t", any plant with at least one "T" allele will be tall (the dominant trait), regardless of what the other allele is. Let's look at a Punnett square for this cross:
Each of the offspring has one "T" allele, so they are all tall plants. This is because the "T" allele is dominant over the "t" allele, so a plant with one "t" allele and one "T" allele will only display the traits of the "T" allele, which in this case is a tall pea plant.
If we cross the offspring, we get a Punnett square that looks like this:
The "TT" and "Tt" crosses both have at least one "T" allele, so they are tall plants. However, the last cross "tt" doesn't have any "T" alleles and is short, because it is homozygous recessive . Since 1 out of 4 pea plants are short, or 1/4, the probability of a short pea plant from a heterozygous cross is 25%.
I think the answer would be A.
Given our understanding of the mechanisms behind genetic expression, we can confirm that when comparing skin cells to kidney cells, the only correct option is option 4 which states that the cells "<u><em>transcribe many different genes</em></u>".
The human genome encodes for <em><u>every gene in the human body</u></em>. This genome sequence is stored in the chromosomes of cells. These chromosomes are identical for every single cell in the human body. Therefore, every cell contains the same DNA, genes, and transcription factors in its chromosomes.
What allows each cell type in the human body the ability to differentiate from one another and complete vastly different functions is the way in which these genes are expressed. Though every cell contains the entire genetic code, only some genes for each cell are transcribed, which results in a different combination of proteins in each cell and leads to the difference between skin and kidney cells (as just one of many examples).

Answer:
Technology helps is by providing us with tools to pinpoint high and low spots in the ocean, it also helps us by giving us the tools we need to be able to search and find animals/plants in the ocean and then test them to see how they live/feed in the ocean.
