In cats, the Dense pigment gene, D/d, codes for melanophilin, a protein involved in the transportation and deposition of pigment
SVETLANKA909090 [29]

Answer:

a. M_D_ : 9/16 Black furred individuals

b. M__dd : 3/16 gray furred individuals (1/16 MMdd + 2/16 Mmdd)

c. mmD_ : 3/16 Brow-furred individuals (1/16 mmDD + 2/16 mmDd)

d. mmdd: 1/16 gray furred individuals.

Explanation:

Available data:

  • Dense pigment gene, D, codes for melanophilin.
  • D allele dominant over d.
  • Gene M/m is responsible for the production of the pigment
  • M is dominant over m
  • If D is present, M/m is expressed
  • If dd is present, M/m is not expressed  
  • DDMM, DdMM, DDMm, DdMm --->Black fur
  • DDmm, Ddmm ---> Brown fur
  • ddMM, ddMm -----> Light gray fur

Cross: between two dihybrids

Parental)         DdMm     x     DdMm

Phenotype) Black-furred      Black-furred

Gametes) DM, Dm, dM, dm   DM, Dm, dM, dm

Punnet Square)    DM        Dm         dM          dm

             Dm       DDMm    DDmm   DdMm   Ddmm

             dM        DdMM    DdMm    ddMM   ddMm

             dm        DdMm    Ddmm    ddMm   ddmm

F1) 9/16 Black-furred individuals, D-M- (1/16 DDMM + 2/16 DDMm + 2/16    

                                                                 DdMM + 4/16 DdMm)

    3/16 Brown-furred individuals, D-mm ( 1/16 DDmm + 2/16 Ddmm)

    4/16 Gray-furred individuals, dd-- ( 1/16ddMM + 1/16 ddmm + 2/16 ddMm)

Members of the phyla Cnidaria and Bryozoa both have a circle of tentacles, which they use for feeding. Besides the difference in
Sophie [7]

Answer:

C.  Cnidarian tentacles have stinging cells, but Bryozoan tentacles are covered with cilia.

Explanation:

Cnidaria and Bryozoan, both teh phylum are classified under kingdom Animalia that contain aquatic animals found both in freshwater and marine environments.

They both use tentacles for feeding but there is diffference between there tentacles and feeding process.

Cnidarians tentacles are conist of stinging cells in the tips, which are called cnidocytes and a coiled thread-like stinger, called nematocyst. These stinging cells and nematocyst helps to capture and subdue prey. They feed over plankton or animals larger then them.

Bryozoan tentacles are covered with cilia and form an "O" or "U" shaped fold called lophophore, which helps to feed by sweeping the surrounding water. They generally feed on plankton, nudibranchs (sea slugs) and sea spiders.

Hence, the correct option is C.

Round seeds (R) are dominant to wrinkled seeds (r), and yellow seeds (Y) are dominant to green seeds (y). What is the expected p
asambeis [7]

Answer:

The correct answer would be- 1:1:1:1.

Explanation:

According to the question the cross between the two pea plants with the genotype RrYy and rryy where R for round seeds and r for recessive form that expressed wrinkled seed character. The other character of this dihybrid cross is the color of the seds Y for green and y for yellow seeds.

The cross is shown in the image attached that suggests that phenotypic ratio would be 1:1:1:1 as RrYy, Rryy, rrYy, and rryy.

Thus, the correct answer is : 1:1:1:1.

zhannawk [14.2K]

The primary driving force that stabilizes lipid bilayers is the formation of hydrophobic bonds between fatty acid chains in phospholipids and protein.

The cell membrane is made up of phospolipid bilayer with proteins embedded in between

Lipid bilayer is the structure present in the biological membrane. It consist of two layers of lipids with hydrophilic end facing each other and hydrophobic end facing the outer side.

the inner layer has both the hydrophobic end of the lipid molecules facing each other and bonded by hydrophobic bond van der waals forces.

The outer molecules are bonded with the protein molecules through hydrophilic bonds called hydrogen bonds.
