What is the difference between gremlins mutations and somatic mutations?

Biology

Answer:

C). Germline mutations are inherited from a parent while somatic mutations are caused by mutagens in the environment.

Explanation:

MUTATION is any change that occurs to the nucleotide sequence of a gene whether caused by a mistake during DNA replication or induced by mutagens (mutation-causing substance). A mutation can be germline or somatic depending on the affected area or how it occured.

Germline mutations are mutations that affects the nucleotide sequence in a gamete or reproductive cell (germline cells). Hence, it can be inherited by an offspring during reproduction. On the other hand, somatic mutations affect body cells. It is a change in the nucleotide sequence of a gene in the body cell or somatic cell. It is usually induced by mutation-causing substances in the environment called MUTAGENS. Somatic mutations can not be transferred to offsprings and it only affects the cells of the specific area it occured.

Answer:

Somatic vs Germline Mutations. ... Somatic mutations – occur in a single body cell and cannot be inherited (only tissues derived from mutated cell are affected) Germline mutations – occur in gametes and can be passed onto offspring (every cell in the entire organism will be affected)

Plants make their own food and are called producers. What do plants need to make their own food? A) soil, air and water B) soil,
djyliett [7]

Answer:

D) energy from the sun, air, and water

Explanation:

Plants are producers because they undergo photosynthesis. Photosynthesis is the process of taking sunlight, CO2, and water to produce ATP in the form of glucose and oxygen.

For plants to make their own food they require the reactants of photosynthesis. The reactants are sunlight+6CO_2 + 6H_2O. In other words, sunlight, carbon dioxide (air), and water. Without these reactants, photosynthesis cannot occur.

Things such as soil and fertilizer are helpful to a plant's growth; however, they are not required in the process that creates food for plants.

Cytosine makes up 24% of the nucleotides in a sample of DNA from an organism.
Alchen [17]

Answer:

26%

Explanation:

if cytosine makes up 24%, then guanine also makes up 24%.

add these to get 48%.

subtract that from 100% to get a remaining 52%

then split the 52% between adenine and thymine to tell you that 26% is thymine

If the two traits that Mendel looked at in his dihybrid cross of smooth yellow peas with wrinkled green peas had been controlled
nalin [4]

Answer:

c. Would have deviated from the 9:3:3:1 phenotypic ratio

Explanation:

<em>If two genes are linked together on the same chromosome, the phenotype of the F2 generation would have deviated from 9:3:3:1.</em>

Two genes whose loci are close on the same chromosome are said to be linked. Linked genes have higher frequency of recombination than genes that are not linked.

<u>Hence, while genes that are not linked assort independently to produce 9:3:3:1 phenotypic ratio at F2, linked genes do not assort independently and the higher frequency of recombination ensures that they standard phenotypic ratio is deviated from.</u>

The correct option is c.

What is the evolution of sex?
Anvisha [2.4K]

Answer: Sex evolved as an extremely efficient mechanism for producing variation, and this had the major advantage of enabling organisms to adapt to changing environments. Sex did, however, come with a cost. In reproducing asexually, no time nor energy needs to be expended in choosing a mate.
