Answer:
d. Two of the above explanations are correct.
Explanation:
A frameshift mutation is commonly known as a genetic mutation that occurs as a result of the indels such as the addition or removal of certain nucleotides in the sequence of a DNA that is indivisible by three. In the presence of addition or removal, the reading frame from the initial translation to a different one. Thus, the correct option is option d.
Answer:
The correct answer is: we would lack the energy we need to function.
Explanation:
Glucose is a type of sugar that gives us energy. When we eat something that contains glucose, our body releases insulin, a hormone from our pancreas, which absorbs the excess glucose in the blood and stabilizes sugar levels. When insulin is released, it travels through the bloodstream to the body's cell. After that, the cells convert glucose into energy to use right then or store it for later use.
In other words, if our bodies could not metabolize glucose we would be hungry and exhausted because we would not get enough of the other nutrients (like proteins and fibers) to sustain our energy.
Answer:
c. the height of radish seedlings is measured
Explanation:
Quantitative measurements revolve around the quantity of things and exact measurements. The measured height of a radish seedling is the perfect example of that.
Memory technique:
- <u>Quantit</u>ative observations involve <u>quantit</u>y (numbers).
- <u>Qualit</u>ative observations involve <u>qualit</u>y (descriptions, features, i.e. color, smell, shape)
Answer:
Because the F1 plants all had a lowercase a/short plant allele, there was a 25% chance that two plants would contribute it to their offspring and they both did sometimes to make a aa offpsring.
Explanation:
All the F1 plants were heterozygous, so when they were crossed, the resulting genotypic ratio was 1 AA : 2 Aa : 1 aa. As you can see, this is the first time since the parent generation that there is a aa genotype and short plant phenotype, so that's why short plants reappeared.
