Answer: e. HT

Explanation:

Gametes are sex cells, which can be an egg or a sperm. <u>They only have one allele of each gene</u>. Head shape is a trait coded by one gene (H) and tail length is another trait coded by another gene (T) Organisms are diploid, this means they have two alleles for each gene, so in this example the animal is HhTt. But, as it was said before, gametes only have one allele of each gene, then <u>the gametes produced will be: HT, Ht, hT and ht. </u>

From the options provided, the only one correct is HT.

  • Hh is not correct because it has two alleles of each gene (Hh)
  • tt is not correct for the same reason, two alleles of each gene (tt)
  • T is not correct because the allele fo the other gene (H or h) is missing
  • HhTt is not correct because it has two alleles of each gene

Dimas [21]

Answer:

This body of knowledge is an example of a theory.

Explanation:

The scientific theory is a conceptual framework used to explain facts or phenomena and to make predictions.

The theory is fundamental to science because it allows scientists to organize and understand observations.

The construction of a theory begins with a hypothesis. The scientist believes that a certain phenomenon occurs in a certain way and so he/she performs observations under the scientific method to prove that his/her hypothesis is valid or not valid. The systematization of the observations as well as of the empirical data collected might derive in a scientific theory that can explain the analyzed phenomenon.

A scientific theory is a knowledge that was contrasted in several ways.

Which of the following did you remember?
Kaylis [27]
Answer:
All statements are true and explain the function of most organelles present in the cell.
Explanation:
I remember the following:
-The nucleus directs cell activity: the nucleus is where the genetic information is found and by means of gene expression it controls the cellular functions.
-Ribosomes produce proteins for the cell: Ribosomes make messenger RNA proteins (mRNA) by connecting amino acids together
-These proteins are then moved through the cell by the endoplasmic reticulum: it is a network of membranes within the cell through which proteins and other molecules move
-The Golgi apparatus packages and distributes proteins from the endoplasmic reticulum: It transforms and exports protein to the rest of the body. Proteins, in their passage through the Golgi apparatus, carry out a modification process.
-Vacuoles store water, waste products, food, etc: vacuoles store substances, in plants they occupy a large percentage of the cytoplasm and change their size during ormoregulation.
-Lysosomes break down waste material and debris: They contains hydrolytic enzymes that allow intracellular digestion of macromolecules
-Mitochondria break down sugar molecules to supply energy. Similarly, chloroplasts capture the energy from sunlight and convert it into chemical energy: Chloroplasts and mitochondria through the processes of cellular respiration and photosynthesis produce energy necessary for the vital functions of the cell.
-The cell membrane protects the cell and controls what enters and leaves it. The cell wall supports the cell membrane, maintains the cell’s shape, and protects the cell. The cytoplasm supports and protects organelles in the cell: The membrane is the support of the cell and through it there is exchange with the external environment. The cytoplasm is the one that supports the rest of cellular organelles
