The best answer would be:

A. DNA is being transcribed into mRNA.

If you'd like to know why:

In the image shown, you can see the <u>BLUE </u>strands and the <u>RED </u>strand. The Blue strand is DNA and the Red strand is mRNA. What is happening in the picture is TRANSCRIPTION. It is the process of making an RNA copy of the DNA strand to create proteins based on the DNA strand.

The <u>GREEN</u> blob is most likely RNA polymerase. Its job is to synthesize or make a complementary RNA strand of the DNA by assembling nucleotides to form an RNA strand based on the DNA template.

Basic unit of a cell membrane
Crank
Phospholipids
The cell membrane is not a solid structure. It is made of millions of smaller molecules that create a flexible and porous container. Proteins and phospholipids make up most of the membrane structure. The phospholipids make the basic bag.

Both Duchenne muscular dystrophy and color blindness are caused by recessive alleles. DMD, unlike color blindness, nearly always
Ronch [10]

Answer: Although both are X-linked recessive conditions, and therefore more likely in males, with the single X-chromosome. The recessive allele in colour blindness occurs at a higher frequency in the population and is a mild condition. Thus colour blindness does occur to a lesser extent in females because it needs the double recessive condition. DMD is a severe, disabling condition with a limited lifespan, and recessive allele frequency much lower, so the double recessive condition in females is very rare.

Explanation: DMD is an X-linked recessive, “nearly always in males” suggest that it also occurs due to a new mutation or some rare condition e.g. double recessive from an affected father and carrier mother, or inactivation of the normal gene in a heterozygote. It is also found that the defective allele is not completely recessive and that female carriers may exhibit mild to moderate effects.

colour blindness is polygenic, although the genes are all X-linked. It is more common in males than females. Females can carry two recessive alleles and so express the phenotype, but this is uncommon because the frequency of the recessive gene is low.

There are similarities in that both are X-linked recessives, therefore commonly expressed in males, who only have one X chromosome. The gene frequency of the colour blindness recessive is much higher than that of DMD, so the double recessive condition, which affects females, is more likely to be seen with colour blindness. In addition, DMD is a severe condition associated with disability and limited lifespan, which reduces the probability of mating between an affected male and carrier female

How do organs relate to cells and tissues
pogonyaev
Simple....

as you've learned... cells create tissue..tissue creates organs...organs create organ systems..and organ systems create organisms. They all work together to create something...

An example:

muscle cell-->>muscle tissue-->>heart-->>circulatory system-->>the circulatory system makes up a part of the body.

Thus, your answer.

A new kind of tulip is produced that develops only purple or pink flowers. Assume that flower color is controlled by a single-ge
Sophie [7]

Answer:

a. purple allele (C) = 0.609, pink allele (c) = 0.391

b. purple homozygotes = 371, pink homozygotes = 153, heterozygotes = 476

Explanation:

Given -

Purple flowers - 847

Pink flowers - 153

The frequency of recessive genotype i.e

q^ 2 = \frac{153}{1000} \\q^ 2 = 0.153\\

Frequency of recessive allele i.e q is equal to

q = \sqrt{0.153} \\q = 0.391

As per hardy Weinberg's first equilibrium equation -

p + q = 1\\p = 1-q\\p = 1-0.391\\p = 0.609

Frequency of purple homozygous species

= p^2\\= 0.609^2\\= 0.371

Number of purple homozygous species = 0.371 * 1000= 371

Number of pink homozygous species = 0.153 * 1000= 153

Heterozygous species is equal to

(1-0.371-0.153)* 1000\\= 0.476 * 1000\\= 476
