Vitamins help them function as fats.
As I was reviewing my initial thoughts about how I thought my flower was pollinated, the answer to the question if I still believe that my flower is pollinated in that way is yes. I still believe that my flower was pollinated that way.

Transcription is the process by which RNA (nucleic acid that is responsible for transferring genetic information from DNA ) is synthesized from the genetic information contained in the coding regions of DNA. Therefore, a copy of complementary RNA and antiparallel to the DNA sequence that was transcribed is obtained. Normally organism synthesize RNA by a reaction catalyzed by RNA polymerases (they are enzymes that are involved in the process of DNA replication).
Transcription occurs in three steps: initiation, elongation and termination.
Initiation: Is the beginning of transcription. It occurs when the RNA polymerase enzyme binds to a region of a gene called a promoter. This tells the DNA to unwind so that enzyme can 'read' the bases in one of the strands of DNA. The enzyme is now ready to create a strand of mRNA (it is a single stranded RNA molecule, complementary to one of the DNA strands of a gene) with a complementary base of bases.
Elongation: Is the addition of nucleotides to the mRNA strand. The RNA polymerase reads the unwound strand of DNA and builds the mRNA molecule, using complementary base pairs. THere is a brief moment during this process when the new RNA molecule is bound to the unwound DNA. During this process, an adenine in the DNA binds to an uracil in the RNA.
Termination: Is the term of transcription and occurs when RNA polymerase crosses a termination sequence in the gene. The mRNA strand is complete and separated from the DNA.
Answer:
a. Her mother has zig-zag antennae.
b. Her brother has zig-zag antennae.
Explanation:
<u>Available data</u>:
- Antennae development ⇒ controlled by maternal effect
- Zig-zag coils are dominant
- Curly coils are recessive
- A female develops zig-zag coils
Maternal effect: Refers to the influence of the “environment provided by the mother” on the progeny phenotype. The mother´s genotype directly determines the progeny phenotype. Even though the progeny has a different genotype, it is irrelevant, as well as the father´s genotype or phenotype. This means that no matter what is the genotype of the offspring, all of them will express the same phenotype as their mother. The maternal effect is commonly seen in insects and might be seen in some mammals and plants.
So, if a female has zig-zag coils, this means that the mother also has zig-zag antennae and that all the brothers and sisters of this female ant have zig-zag antennae, independently of their genotype.
a. Her mother has zig-zag antennae ⇒ True. The trait is inherited from the mother.
b. Her brother has zig-zag antennae ⇒ True. The whole progeny will express sig-zag antennae.
c. This female carries the zig-zag allele ⇒ Not necessarily.
d. This female's offspring will have zig-zag antennae ⇒ Depends on it´s genotype
