The issue of high cholesterol can sometimes run in families. If an individual has two normal alleles, then he is phenotypically

normal. Individuals having both recessive alleles for this condition leads to zero production of receptors that remove cholesterol from blood. However, individuals who are heterozygous produce half the number of receptors necessary to remove cholesterol from the blood. This is a good example of
A) epistasis.

B) complete dominance.

C) incomplete dominance.

D) codominance.

In the case of the gene that determines high cholesterol in the blood, the two alleles express incomplete dominance.
What this means is that the dominant allele is not completely dominant over the recessive allele. If the allele was completely dominant, even one allele would be enough to determine the individual's trait as dominant. But in the case of incomplete dominance between the alleles, the heterozygous individuals that have one dominant and one recessive allele are an ''in between'' phenotype.

Match the following. 1. period during the life of a cell when it has finished mitotic division G1 phase 2. period during the lif
zimovet [89]

Ans.

The cell cycle includes a series of events that results in the formation of daughter cells from a single parent cell. These events include interphase, followed by M phase. The interphase consists of three phases, G0 (Gap 0) phase, G1 phase, S (synthesis) phase, G2 phase, while the M phase consists two phases, karyokinesis (mitotic or meiotic phase) and cytokinesis. At the end of cell cycle, cell enters into G0 phase again and the cycle goes subsequently.

The sequesnce of cell cycle events can be written as follows:

G0→G1→S→G2→M→G0→G1→....

Thus, according to the cell cycle sequence, these terms can be matched as:

1. When a cell finishes its mitotic division, it enters to G0 phase, which is also known as rest phase. Thus, statement 1. matches with G0 phase.

2. The period between end of mitosis and synthesis of genetic material for next mitotic division shows G1 phase, in which cell prepares itself for division. Thus, statement 2. matches with G1 phase.

3. The period of interphase between synthesis of new genetic material and the beginning of mitosis is G2. Thus, statement 3. matches with G2 phase.

4. The period between two mitotic division is interphase. Thus, statement 4. matches with interphase.

5. The period of cell division, during which a cell is performing actual cell division is M phase. Thus, statement 5. matches with M phase.

6. The period of interphase, during which genetic material gets doubled is synthesis or S phase. Thus, statement 6. matches with S phase.

All of the following are examples of informational social influence except:
Cerrena [4.2K]

Answer:

c. when you get to college you change the way you dress so that you "fit in" better--that is, so that people will like you more.

Explanation:

Informational social influence leads to internalization (private acceptance) of the majority opinion/behaviour i-e you actually change your attitude / belief. It is basically a difficult task , unsure of the answer, usually ambiguous , actually use others's response to form an opinion and actually believe what others say and internalize in. It is usually found in the crisis situation, when you don't know what to do and following th advice of expert. Examples include listening to fireman.

Hence in the given options, only c. when you get to college you change the way you dress so that you "fit in" better--that is, so that people will like you more. seems not to be example of Informaltiona social influence.
