5 0

Answer: The solution was hypertonic

Explanation: The reason for this is the fact that the cell shriveled up. The shriveling was caused by water moving out of the cell. This movement is likely caused by a disbalance in solutes between the cell and the surrounding, with the surrounding containing a higher concentration of solutes. Diffusion tries to balance this by moving water out of the cell, thus increasing the concentration inside and reducing the concentration outside.

Which statement best describes the relationship between an allele and a gene?
yKpoI14uk [10]

An allele is a variation of a gene that can be expressed as a phenotype.

Explanation:

Genes are the specific sequences of DNA that code for a particular protein in organisms. When the fertilization occurs each parent contributes one chromosome which is homologous this means that both will have genes on the particular loci. The alleles of the particular genes will come together to express the trait.

Allele is an entity of gene which determines how the gene will express the particular trait like tall, short, round, wrinkle etc. It can be said that allele determines the phenotypic trait of a particular gene.
