The ABO blood groups in humans are expressed as the I A , I B , and i alleles. The I A allele encodes the A blood group antigen,

I B encodes B, and i encodes O. Both A and B are dominant to O. If a heterozygous blood type A parent (I A i) and a heterozygous blood type B parent (I B i) mate, one quarter of their offspring will have AB blood type (I A I B ) in which both antigens are expressed equally. Therefore, ABO blood groups are an example of: a. multiple alleles and incomplete dominance b. codominance and incomplete dominance c. incomplete dominance only d. multiple alleles and codominance

Answer:

d. multiple alleles and codominance

Explanation:

ABO blood group is controlled by three alleles instead of the usual two. Hence, it is an example of multiple alleles. These three alleles are IA, IB and i. IAIA genotype leads to production of A antigen hence A blood group. IBIB genotype leads to production of B antigen hence B blood group. When they are present together (IAIB) both A and B antigens are produced resulting in AB blood group. Hence ABO blood group is also an example of codominance.

Both IA and IB are dominant over the i allele. So IAi and IBi will produce A and B blood group respectively. ii genotype leads to O genotype.

Which events take place in the light-dependent reactions of photosynthesis?
borishaifa [10]

The correct answer is : Light energy is captured by plants; light energy is converted to chemical energy.

In the process of photosynthesis, special pigment molecule called chlorophyll can capture the energy of the light, more specifically the photon. When a particle of light (a photon) with a specific energy reaches this pigment in the leaves of plants, the energy is transferred from the particle to the molecule, and the molecule becomes excited. This is the phase where the energy of the light is captured and transformed into chemical energy that can later be used to make sugars.

All of the later chemical processes that transfer the energy from the excited chlorophyll to the sugar molecules are not dependent on the light and can happen during the night as well.

A strong covalent bond between adjacent nucleotides is: a) a van der Waals bond. b) an ionic bond. c) a phosphate bond. d) a hyd
zhuklara [117]

Answer:

The correct answer will be option-E

Explanation:

The structure of DNA revealed by Watson and Crick showed that Two strands of DNA are present in the intertwined state forming helix representing DNA as a double helix.

Each strand of DNA is made up of the monomer unit of DNA called nucleotide where each nucleotide binds to another nucleotide through weak covalent bond called phosphodiester bond.

The phosphodiester bond is formed between the 3’-OH group of one nucleotide to 5’ phosphate group of another nucleotide. In this way, the phosphate-sugar molecule forms the backbone of the DNA molecule.

Thus, option-E is the correct answer

nika2105 [10]

Answer:

thrust faults, turbidite, lava, and fault blocks.

Explanation:

Because the three exceptions to the law of superposition are intrusions, folding or faulting, and extrusions. Fault blocks are an example of faulting. Lava is relative to extrusions because it is far below the earth when it is formed.
