Their children would have AA,BB, or AB blood types. it is a 25% chance of AA, a 25% chance of BB, and a 50% chance of AB so most likely their child's blood type would be AB.

One fourth of the kids would have blood type A, one fourth would have blood type B, and one half would have blood type AB.

Which statements about the modification of chromatin structure in eukaryotes are true? Select all that apply. View Available Hin

Kay [80]

The correct answers are:

Methylation of histone tails in chromatin can promote condensation of the chromatin.

DNA is not transcribed when chromatin is packaged tightly in a condensed form.

Acetylation of histone tails is a reversible process.

Some forms of chromatin modification can be passed on to future generations of cells.

Acetylation of histone tails in chromatin allows access to DNA for transcription.

Histone modifications are post-translational modifications of histone protein that can affect gene expression by altering chromatin structure or recruiting histone modifiers.The most common modifications are methylation, phosphorylation, acetylation and ubiquitylation. All of them affect the binding affinity between histones and DNA and thus loosening (gene activation) or tightening (gene repression) the condensed DNA.

Histone methylation is a transfer of methyl group by histone methyltransferases to lysine or arginine amino acid of protein. Effect of methylation depends on the type of protein that is modified. Demethylation is the reverse process.

Histone acetylation is the process of adding of an acetyl group(by histone acetyltransferases) to histone proteins and it can also activate or inhibit the gene expression. Deacetilation is reverse process.

How are carbon and oxygen cycles related

Nookie1986 [14]

They are related because they are all in the same blood or family you breathe in oxygen and remove carbon dioxide the carbon dioxide it helps other stuff in the ecosystem to survive or live so its like this people breathe oxygen while plants breathe carbon dioxide.

To check whether Earnest and Denise could have a baby with Type O blood, draw a Punnett square for a father who has blood Type A

Nutka1998 [239]

Answer:

Answer is explained below and also see the document attached below for Punnett square.

Explanation:

ABO blood type (A, B, AB, or O) is based on the presence (or absence) of the A and B antigens in the red blood cells. The blood type, A has only the A antigen (and has anti-B antibodies) while the blood type, B has only the B antigen (and had anti-A antibodies). Also in the AB blood type, both A and B antigens are present (but has no antibodies) while in the O blood type, both A and B antigens are absent (but has both antibodies).

The blood type is inherited from the parents and the offspring inherits one of the two alleles from each parent. The ABO blood type has three types of alleles: IA, IB, and i. Here, I is a term for antigen (isoagglutinogen).

The IA and IB alleles are dominant while the i allele is recessive. The blood type A is formed by either two IA alleles (IA IA ) or IA i. So, the genotype of blood type A is IA IA or IA i. The blood type B is formed by either two IB alleles (IB IB ) or IB i. So, the genotype of blood type B is IB IB or IB i. The O blood type is formed only by two i alleles (ii). So, the genotype of blood type O is ii. The IA and IB alleles (IA IB) give the AB blood type, which is an example of codominance (the traits of both the alleles are visible in the phenotype). The genotype of blood type AB is IA IB.

If the parents have blood type A and B, then they can have an AB blood type offspring. If the parents have blood type A and B and they both are heterozygous (IB i and IA i), then they can also have a O blood type child.

Here, the father has blood Type A (IA i genotype) while the mother has blood Type B (IB i genotype). Both the parents are heterozygous (IB i and IAi), so the possible genotypes of their child are IA IB (blood type AB), IA i (blood type A), IB i (blood type B) and ii (blood type O).

i.e., <u> Blood Type </u> <u>Genotype </u>

A IA IA or IA i

B IB IB or IB i

AB IA IB

O ii

What information is contained in the branches of a cladogram?

Brums [2.3K]

The branching point on a cladogram represents a common ancestor. A cladogram is a diagram used in cladistics to show relations among organisms. However it is not an evolutionary tree since it does not show how ancestors are related to descendants, nor does it show how much they have changed.
